The grizzlies have too much firepower right now. Mayo Randolph Arenas Cunningham Pondexter off the bench. The grizzlies are 10 deep. If mayo and Arenas light it up from 3, there ain't a team in the league that can beat us.
Eek, that looks bad. They're going to have to rest one or the other or even both at some point during that stretch. I wouldn't want my stars fatigued in the playoffs.
I think tonight showed that randolph is ready to start. I don't know if it will happen because hollins never makes knee jerk changes. He's a measured coach, but the west better look out for the grizzlies. I don't know WHAT the lakers were thinking but Arenas definitely got game.
I said it a couple of months ago, but you can pencil the Pacers into the 3rd seed in the East. Of their remaining 11 games, 8 are at home and the farther away game is crumbling Philly. This Indy boy is proud of 'em.
The problem is they are so close to the Bulls, plus the Thunder and Spurs figure into their Finals thinking. It would be a very hard decision to rest them because I'm not sure one or two games is enough to do any good.
That's true. I guess it'll come down to how bad they really want or need HCA, at least through the ECF. I would figure they'll at least play in both of those Bulls games they still have left.
Win-win situation..but I think Phx will not fall off eventually..they got a pretty tough remaining schedule so I guess Phx.
the grizzlies really didn't do anything out of the ordinary, they just let the heat beat themselves. people keep saying if I were in the west I won't want to face the grizzlies in the first round, which seems like a compliment, until you realize that they are using it to indicate the grizzlies are a darkhorse team. I don't know how the grizzlies became a darkhorse team when no team save the thunder can even match the talent we have. the rest of the west are lucky that the grizzlies had so many injuries because it screwed our bid for home court throughout the playoffs.
Durant dunk has to be dunk of the year. 7 footer trying to go up to contest and Durant straight posterizes him.
