This will be a huge scalp for us. Going to be a brutal game, good thing our starters got some good rest.

Tough game but it would be a big win for us. Randolph against Morris scares me, though.

Their whole lineup scares me so I hope we're ready to play against them. When Randolph is healthy this team plays great. Last year they were missing Rudy Gay in the playoffs and still managed to beat 1st seed Spurs and push Thunder to 7 exciting games. Like previous poster said our starters rested and didn't play much last few games so hope they play good. They key factors will be our bench again. If the same bench shows up like they did against Lakers and T-Wolves then we got a good chance to compete with Grizz. Who would of though we'd be playing this good without Grant Hill?

Morris tamed Love. He can tame Randolph!

We won against them twice earlier this season and that was with a terrible bench. I think it's a winnable game but Randolph off the bench scares me. Tony Allen might even be out for this game.

That's correct but Grizzlies have been playing amazing lately while getting Randolph back. Let's just play smart and try to commit less then 5 turnovers like we did against the Lakers.

We're playing great basketball, too. Thinking about it, it should be an amazing game.

No doubt this will be a real test.

Hoping for a Suns win. Haven't been able to watch many games with traveling and whatnot. Got to watch most of the second and third quarter of the Timberwolves game on the plane on the way back to San Diego. Hopefully I'll be able to catch this game.

I'm rooting for the Suns, Nuggets and Rockets in the west. Suns need to win their next 3 games at road trip.

Now we start the brutal stretch to end the season, "easiest" game left is a home game against the Trailblazers as they are the only team who is currently not in the top 8 in the West left on our schedule.

We put ourselves in a great position to earn a playoff spot, just got to show we can beat the other Western contenders.

i have not seen a basketball game in 3 months, when the hell did memphis get speights?

Suns need to win this one or the against the Spurs. I'm not expecting 3-0 in the next 3 games but 2-1 is absolutely required to make playoffs.

I think we can all assume that Shannon Brown will absolutely suck in this game....he's gonna be guarded by Tony Allen. Evey point Brown scores will be like a bonus.

But Brown better lock down Allen too cause Allen doesn't much offensive game anyway.

I hope Dudley and Frye have big games. Its been a while since Dudley had a nice game and Frye is gonna be defended by Speighs.....Frye better BEAST.

January fourth, in a three team trade between NOH, Philly, and the Griz. Speights went to Griz, Henry went to NOH, and two second rounders went to Philly.

That trade made them contenders.

9 games remaining in the season, Suns must go 6-3 or eve 7-2 to make the playoffs. Can we do it?

^^Yea.

Damn Arenas has been killing it for Memphis lately. Pargo, Mayo and Arenas all on the floor at the same time? We better be getting easy buckets in the paint with our bench unit!

Kerrsed, that first girl looks like she has the right arm of a female, and the left arm of a dude.
It is just the girl behind her, but still looks funny.
