The Lowdown

For the first time in five yrs, the Grizzlies find themselves back in the playoffs. They will face off against the very experience San Antonio Spurs on the road for the first two games. While Spurs look to show the reasons why they should be in this year's finals. The Grizzlies look for pride, redemption, and determination. The pride the Grizzlies will look to build after going 0-12 in their first three playoff rounds. The redemption to face of against the Spurs who swept them under the rug in the 2003-04 playoff series. The determination that they will show the Spurs that this first round series will not be a cakewalk nor a sweep. Expect a helleva fight above nothing else. Win nor lose.

I don't ever want to see another Spurs game.

They are very boring to watch.

They make a soccer game look exciting.

Go get em Memphis! Fear the Bear!

Powe isn't neccessarily in the rotation. So he'll be playing spot up minutes when possible.

45-43 Grizz with the lead.

What they need to work on.

Limiting the Spurs second chance pts.
Hitting the boards better in the second half.
Isolate TD from his teammates.
Grizz offense must continue to stay on point.
Get this win.

If the Grizz want this game, they need to hammer it to the inside just lke what happened on that play with Marc.
