Pau? Conley? Swift? Will they play tonight?

Per Rotoworld.com

X-rays on Mike Conley's chest contusion and rib injury were negative, but he didn't return to action on Friday.
"It feels horrible," said Conley, who struggled to talk. "I'm in a lot of pain." The X-ray results are good news, but he could be injured enough he'll miss a couple games. Hopefully we get more information on Saturday.


Pau Gasol missed Friday's game with a sore back and will be questionable for Saturday's game.
"It's stiff," he said of his back. "It doesn't allow me to move and hold ground and have balance. I fought through it against Chicago and the last game (against Orlando). I just don't want it to get worse. I can't keep aggravating it. I have to be smart." Consider him a game-time decision against the Clippers tonight.


Stromile Swift sat out Friday's game with a sprained ankle.
He's questionable for Saturday's game against the Clippers.

Good luck guys.

I hope if Pau plays he'd match up with Kaman.

Mike Conley is not expected to play tonight. Look for Kyle Lowry to take his place.

I would have liked to see Conley in action tonight. Hopefully he and Pau will be back quickly.

Good Luck in tonight's game!!

You guys off to a nice start. Kaman will not play tonight due to a bruised left shin.

Great OT win tonight! Very nice layup by Lowry to give them the lead at the end.

Rudy played another great game with a career high 34 points.

Very good shooting game on both sides (both teams over 50%). It's good to get a win in a game like this, especially without Pau in the lineup.

Great game to watch. We had too many chances to get over the hump and take control of the game, but we committed too many silly mistakes.

Good game, guys.

Lowry and Gay both very impressive.

Lowry only 1 TO in 49 minutes of play. Great job handling the ball.

It was a good game to listen to since it wasn't on TV tonight. The Grizzlies managed to put up a good fight after last night's debacle. Gay, Miller, and Lowry kept the Grizzlies in the game and got a win out of it.

It ended up being a pretty entertaining game. Memphis lead for most of regulation and we didn't take our first lead until overtime. Either team could have ended it in 48 minutes if free-throws down stretch were converted. Gay had an impressive game but the same could be said about Miller & Lowry. Warrick was knocking down some big shots when it mattered as well.

Good game guys.
