Ariza needs to start. Have Walton come in off the bench.

The Grizzlies are the WC version of the pacers. Same strengths and weakness in general. We should win this easily. Let hope the Lakers can keep tking care of less teams, as they have so far this season.

The Grizzlies matchup well with us. We cannot let Pau or Rudy go off on us. For some reason I think we lose this game though I hope to god we don't.

The Grizz are much better than their record, I am also a little worried about the game.

I don't know. I don't think Bynum will have a big game. He's had big games against smaller teams. Darko and Pau aren't small.

Also, memphis might have struggled for most of the season, but they look pretty dangerous to me. Pau has recently really picked it up. Gay is having a breakout season. Miller has always been dangerous. These three guys can light it up, and Memphis always seems to play well against us.

Lakers should win this game with no problem. Yeah in the past this team was a problem but in the past we didnt have this team. No one on the Griz can handle Bynum because hes just to big. They will not put Pau on Him because Pau would foul out by the 3rd quarter. Lakers "should" roll. Go Lakers!!!

+1

The Grizz always play us tough, especially at home. Kobe's going to have to have an efficient night (shoot ~50% and less than 4 TOs) for us to get this one.

Nice match ups for the game.

Bynum needs to shut darko's big mouth up.

LO vs Gasol, LO needs to outproduce Gasol's rebounding and points and Kwame needs to keep him in check.

Ariza with the defensive assignment on either Miller or Gay.

Kobe needs to hound thier 3 shooters on the perimeter and I just hope that Sasha doesn't play because I want to see Critt get a chance against Conley Jr. The battle for the best PG of the draft. :lol:

Go Lakers!

This will definitely be another great game to test and see if Conley's promotion has really helped us. So far we are 2-1 with a four-point loss at Boston (we also lost Rudy for a little while due to a Posey elbow). I'm glad some of you give us some kind of recognition. Some of the others seem to forget that us "lowly Grizzlies" would manage to sneak away a win against Shaq and Kobe. Not saying we will win today, but don't write us off before even playing.

EDIT: Also wanted to add that the Grizzlies are 1-7 in games decided by three points or less. Flip that around and we are 16-17 instead of 10-23.

I also think that ariza should come out as a starter today instead of Walton, because Rudy Gay is too athletic for Luke and I think Ariza would do a better job defending Rudy because of his athleticism...and Luke would be a big boost from the bench...hopefuly Miller doesn't shoot the light out from that three and Pau has an average game and we take this one to build some momentum before NOH game next day.

Go lakers.

I'm afraid of this game !

Memphis can cause us problems !

Just continue to play the same way and we'll get our win.
