Any word on who's playing for the Grizz? ESPN has Gasol, Conley, Allen, Green, and Harrison out but I doubt all of those guys don't play today.

Just got this from the grizz twitter.
Read on Twitter
Marc and Jamychal are probable. Conley and Allen are questionable.

One of the guys on the broadcast said "they thought he would miss extended time, but are optimistic it's not so bad"

I think that probably means back for playoffs.

The hard part for him will be keeping it up in the second half. Hopefully he pulls out a complete performance.

He is capable though, I don't know if it's by design or not but I can't understand why his usage is so low.

Maybe this isn't reals, but anyone thinking Tony Allen isn't better offensively than Roberson, by alot, even at his age, has no ability to evaluate basketball. But that's by watching not stats so?

Can Sabonis accidentally do something good occasionally?

Why does Christon think he needs to take shots? Like, ever?

It's time for billy to try the rotation that puts Westbrook in the game early.

Russ' defense is a joke.

I'll be very surprised if we win this game. We're getting away with lots of mistakes.
