Minus Kemba’s 4th quarter heroics the game might be tied right now. Says a lot about the giveth and taketh style that Tony and Monk provide.

Glad to see that Batum is keeping his trade value up.

I didn't realize that MEM had sucked so bad lately, I assumed they were still a really good team and was thrilled we played the way we did. :lol: :lol: :lol: Oh well -- a win is a win! I was chalking this up to a loss before tonight, so getting the win and pulling closer to .500 again -- I'll take it.

Great win. Memphis is definitely down on their luck at the moment but it was still nice to see the team jump on them and then keep them at arms length the whole game. Batum played great and stayed active, Biz was also awesome. Good to get this W under our belt before a tough game against Milwaukee.

its not like he's gonna play willie down low and a clueless biz on the perimeter every night

only reason i'd want marc is to drop salary while keeping kemba happy for a while

you gotta realize, if these guys were so good - then they would win more games

The game has slowed down for him. He was super raw and young when he was in the rotation when we were the Bobcats. Honestly we gave up on him too early.

A lot has to due with coaching and support staff. We have been getting killed in the 3rd quarter with no real gameplan coming out of halftime. It kinda turns into "hope Mike and Marc can make something happen" which teams have keyed in on. If you guys do trade for Gasol I agree it will be a trade that is as much about moving salary as acquiring Gasol.

He seems to catch the ball most of the time when someone not named Kemba Walker passes him the ball.

Hes even catching Kemba's passes now. Kemba finally figured out that he could throw Biz bounce passes and just use a different angle so it would bounce high.

Hes been catching the ball better in general the last few games, but it seemed like it had a lot to do with everyone going out of their way to throw him only super easy passes, but last night he got thrown multiple wonky passes and snatched them up instantly without even bobbling it.
