I only concern because of our 2 day break...You know we are playing bad when we are playing after 2 day breaks.Also this team defeated us when they haven't Gasol and Randolph both.Lueuer and Ed Davis killed us.

Anyways it is a home game and we are tough to beat at home.So 20-11 is coming.

Memphis blew us out last time, can't lose to em again.

I think we have lost 3 times to losing teams and one of them is Memphis with the other two being Brooklyn and Utah.

Unless we lost to the Pelicans once as well...can't remember.

The loses that hurt was losing to 2x to Kings, Jazz and Brooklyn but we also had wins over great teams so I guess it evens it out.

Oh yea I forgot about the losses to the Kings. Even when we beat them, we barely beat them. Weird.

Tonight against Memphis I wanna see the same smothering, tough defense we used against the Clippers.

If he sits out multiple games, it will mess up our groove and could start something bad.
