One of those games that I don't want to watch because I know it'll piss me off too much, but I will anyway.

My focus is on the Blazers game. If we ever win, it would be really extra.

This. It's like the Rockets, Clippers, Warriors games.....we win, great, we lose, eh it's expected.

This is the game I wish we had Admunson. Put him on Randolph to start the game, and smother him into frustration. I think Lou was the last guy to get Randolph ejected.

It would be awesome if MKMo could step up the defense, but we know he is more focused on the offense. Maybe we could start Wright, and have Len play a pick and pop role, and use MkMo more in the fourth quarter, where even in cold games, he seems to make his shots.

It will be a tough game, and I'm not looking forward to the aggressiveness allowed on one end of the floor, and almost every touch foul called on us.

It would be really great if our guards hit their shots, and our bigs just focused on rebounding and defense.

One of those games were its to frustrating to watch so you hit the gym and kill your phone by refreshing the boxscore until the inevitable loss to the grizzlies is official

Start Wright and Len. Best chance we got at winning is to go big and hope we hit our shots.

Grizzlies were difficult matchup before Green...

Now they have him a potential 20 point scorer when left alone... Big SF too... So gonna be an uphill battle even more so jan usual.

Grizzlies are looking very good for a WCF berth.

Having Kieff matched up against Z-Bo on offense actually stretches the D though, we'd have ZERO chance getting any rebounds or layups if Wright and Len are starting...

The key to the game is going to be to pound the rock inside right away and try and get Z or Gasol into a little foul trouble. And if we do that every time they come in just go right at them. Or else we need a hot shooting night from 3, which hasn't happened in awhile.

I agree with Qwiggles. I hope Wright and Len get quite a bit more minutes than usual. Markieff always gets absolutely destroyed on defense by Randolph. I would use him a little more sparingly for when we need buckets within 15 feet.

I'm calling it now, Markieff Morris wont post up once in this game.

And Z-Bo will be doing just that.

For those of you who play fantasy basketball, Randolpg and maybe Gasol are both must starts today.

This thread is disgusting.

Is this the Grizzlies forum?

Tucker will take care of Randolph. We will need good 3 point shooting from our wings.

I'm usually a pessimist when it comes to us and the Griz, but I've got a gut feeling that one of our chuchers will catch on fire tonight, and we'll walk away with a win.

Then we'll lose to Portland and this win will mean nothing..

I think we'll beat Portland.

So do I. But whenever we do the unexpected (win against Grizz), we continue to do it( L against Blazers ) and balance the situation...

Don't worry, Hornacek already has the game plan for the start of the first quarter

Chuck threes, don't pass it to Len, chuck more threes, sub in the bench, chuck more threes, and still don't pass it to Len.

Then Plumlee will come in and get like 4 post up opportunities with each one resulting in a dropped pass or an airball and Len will still never get the ball in the post.

The sad part is I'm only half joking
