Just thought i should point out that Krstic is starting for us until Shaq gets back on Friday, not Big Baby. Should be a fun game. Good luck!

This game will be a tough one from start to finish. The Grizzlies start off a three game stretch against three superior teams. It would begrat to get a win vs. the Celts tonight in Beantown. The Grizz hae to play to the same intensity as the Celts and can't afford to make silly mistakes. Take the fight to them and do everything possible to get the win. Good luck Grizz.

I know you're not exactly looking to do the Lakers any favors, but I'm definitely rooting for you guys, and hope you make the playoffs.

I believe we will. I'd rather the Grizz win most the their games and meet the Lakeshow than meet see the Spurs come April.

Thank you Memphis, your win tonight puts the Bulls a game up on the Celtics in the loss column. Now don't go beating the Bulls Friday or we will be back to where we were before. :D

Good luck to you all for the rest of the season and in the playoffs.

Ever since moving down to Southaven a few months ago, this team has made me feel a little less homesick. Good game Grizzlies.

This team, post Rudy's injury, has the same vibe the 50 win Hubie ball team had. Obviously different personnel and rotations, but the same swagger.

Lovin' it!!!

ZBo had a so-so game, Mike looked shaky as hell and we have no Rudy.
Yet we still beat a pretty good team on their home floor. Grizz are solid. 8-)

Great team win all around - it's tough to pick out any individual performance from this one IMO. The bench played excellent defense between the end of the first and the start of the second.

This was a great win for the Grizzlies. The way they played from start to finish is what is needed to beat tough teams like the Celts. This win also helps us in the playoffs race as we need to keep moving up the ladder. Everyone played great. Both Leon Powe and Tony Allen got some cool receptions from the Boston crowd after playing for the Celts for a few yrs.

Great win Grizz.

Next up Chi-town.
