hey people. We are just talking about Mayo but take a look to Marc!!!

Are we giving him at least 30min/game? do you think he will average 10rebs? I dont mind about his scoring, now we have two beast in the boards and blocking. Do u think Marc and Darko will play together? Wich lineup we will have in the 4th quarter?

The lineups will be determined by what type of team we are playing.

I think you have a very interesting Big lineup option of:
Mayo
Gay
Arthur
Milicic
MGasol

That is a lineup I would like to see on the floor against a team like the Spurs or the Lakers.

Would love to see one of the Grizz rooks up for Rookie of the Year, but what is Greg Oden's status next season since he has never played in an NBA game yet? He could be tough competition for ROY if he qualifies.

He is up for the award, because he never played in a game last year. That is why I think all he has to do is put up decent stats and he will beat anyone. Unless Mayo can come in and average 20/4/5 (pt/as/rb).

I'm sorry but the hype on Marc Gasol is never going to be fulfilled. ROY? That is utterly ridiculous. He may become a very good player or even a solid starter, but rookie of the year over Derrick Rose, Michael Beasley and others? I don't think so.
