    The Grizzlies hardly ever win. And probably never blow anyone out. Let them enjoy it! They were excited to win a game. There is nothing wrong with that. I know when we blew out Dallas that I was loving every minute of it, even after the game was decided. I just wish we could win another game!

    What's the difference between a 18 and 23 point loss?

    Hopefully, this drives home the point that the other team also collects a paycheck and if you sleepwalk through a game, bad teams will bite you in the butt.

    I know we are without our 2 stars, however, you would think the available players would come out and try to show the coaching staff that they are worthy of additional playing time.

    Defensive intensity is all about hustle and effort.

    You've got to be kidding. Next to Carter and O'Neal; Francis, Mobley, and Moochie-I just shot a winning three pointer, let me shake your hand.-Norris are considered, at best, overly dramatic after an exciting play...at worst, obnoxious.

    They never (excl. maybe a rare Langhi shot last year) take a shot in the final seconds when they are trouncing a team.

    Memphis will surely pay for that excess.

    Ya'll can say what you want, but that was not right any way you look at it. It wasn't even right when we did it last year in Philly. Then they did it twice. 11 seconds on the clock and you're up by double digits. The game is over. battier took a classless shot then celebrated it like it was deciding a playoff game, then gasol dunks with four seconds. WTF.

    BTW if it was no big deal then why did their coach get in touch with Rudy to apologize?

    Well, if the Rockets had decided to show up, then they wouldn't be crying about what the Grizzlies did to them. I'm a true believer that if you step in between the lines you can and will get embarrassed. All they had to do is play ball and they wouldn't be whinning :mad:

    Excuses, excuses....I'm sure Mobley and Francis saw it, and I'm sure the Grizzlies are gonna regret it. You KNOW Mobley and Francis don't take any disrespect.

    I just saw the game, some notes:

    Tierre Brown's little move, FANTASTIC.

    Eddie Griffin, shouldn't take anymore 3's.

    Add Yao Ming to the Grizzlies next year, and you have an average team at least.


    Don't worry guys, Francis and Mobley will make up for all this mess. In fact, I have a feeling we'll go on a very hot streak when they come back, like 11-2 or something.
