    Playing Memphis in Memphis will be a battle with or without Conley.

    We play Grizzlies twice per week this season.

    We will get plenty of opportunities to see him.

    Well he edited the post. The 1st word read conley at first.

    When scrolling through the garm on a phone it is very easy for to read capela out with achilles injury for half a second before seeing that it says conley out with achilles injury.

    I’m willing to bet other clutchfans members had half second scares.

    yep, but even if we win tomorrow, I can hear the GARM later in the season, selectively downplaying this game:

    Fast-forward to April when the GARM is feeling vulnerable about facing MEM in first round and second-guessing our chances in the playoffs. The "we always have trouble with teams with rim-protectors like Memphis", will show it's head again. Then someone will say, we crushed them the last two games, "Yeah, but that was only because we got hot from three in Game 3 and Conley was injured in Game 4" ... with no acknowledgement that Game 3 was actually just average shooting at 35.6% and that Paul was out Game 1 and Paul/EGo were out Game 2 ... those first two prove their point, nonetheless.

    :cool:

    Rockets miss 4 straight wide open 3s

    I've always liked his game and think he'd be a great fit with harden.

    Sucks for them, but we were badly injured in our first two matchups. I'm glad this will be the last time we see that punk Chalmers. He's a dirty little SOB.

    Don't sleep on these guys. Blow them out of the water and make Harden actually sit out the 4th quarter this time. It was frustrating seeing him out there last night chasing 50. He played 35 minutes in a game that was over after 3 quarters.

    Out indefinitely? Does that mean he is retiring?

    I feel sorry for him. Mike Conley is one of my favorite players in NBA right now. I think he is very underrated.

    Who is going to win the starter job for Memphis while Conley is out? For FBB purposes.

    Conley is overrated and overpaid. Show them no mercy. That game one loss to them due to horrible officiating is still vivid. Blow them out in the 1st half at their home! Go Rockets!
