Repeat after me. There was no game on Wednesday. You went to sleep early on Wedsday night, maybe caught an episode of Deal or no Deal. You did not witness a massacre on the basketball court.

^^ Ivaroni might go with Swift, who played really well against us last time.

Swift even got a DNP on Thursday, which pretty much points to him starting against the Warriors.

Did you just watch Men In Black too? haha. Nice sig. No reason we shouldn't take this, memphis coming off a close loss to sactown. Start Harrington nellie! Biedrins better get some looks/mins.

Nelly, please start our best starting lineup! please please please

When we start best lineup, our result is 9-2!

Tonight's game will be a total mismatch--Warriors win easily. The Grizzlies are a very bad team and will be tired after their disappointing loss in Sacramento last night. The Warrior starters should be well rested!

If we're not motivated tonight, then we've got some real issues.

crzy · Post #15 » by **crzy** » Fri Jan 11, 2008 4:58 pm

We had BETTER come to play.

Monta Ellis and Stephen Jackson better snap out of their damn funk.

Sid the Squid · Post #16 » by **Sid the Squid** » Fri Jan 11, 2008 5:45 pm

Our best +/- regular rotation players over the last 10 games...

1. Barntrus
2. Barntrus
3. Harrington
4. Biedrins
5. Davis
6. Azubuike
7. Ellis
8. Jackson

I would start Wright, POB, Marco, CJ and Pietrus only because we want to show case him.

mistatwo mayn · Post #18 » by **mistatwo mayn** » Fri Jan 11, 2008 7:39 pm

can we just get a game thread of that lil chicita?

Really need to go to the bench quick if we start out slow. Please do not try to put Jackson on bulldozer T-Rex Swift

Post #19 » by **FNQ** » Fri Jan 11, 2008 8:01 pm

Hoping it's not the case, but I expect a lot more of:

- Monta deferring to Jax unless there's a wide open lane, again

- Jax's offense (or lack thereof) fueling his defense (or lackthereof)

- a few Baron low-energy shots to gauge whether he wants to try tonight

- 20+ minutes for CJ, < 10 for Beli, Wright and a inactive listing for POB

If one of the top 3 is wrong, we have a shot at winning... if any of the 4 are wrong, its a game worth watching...

Mayor Baron · Post #20 » by **Mayor Baron** » Fri Jan 11, 2008 8:22 pm

if memphis plays swift and warrick...wouldn't wright be a good choice to match up against them? i doubt nellie sees it like that though... i do think he will not play Beans that much if memphis goes athletic and small. Stupid stupid nellie...
