    Dunno.

    The Grizzlies are on the Rockets ass though, Gasol will probably miss the rest of the season so they should fade away.

    Go Warriors!

    Is Pau's foot injury that bad?

    He's missed about a month and there hasn't been any improvement so he figures there won't be enough to come back this season. Nothing doctors or the Grizzlies have said, just Pau being Pau I guess.

    The game was a make-up game for apparently one that Memphis did not play earlier this season, might have been a snow-out or something.

    Wrong Wrong Wrong. It was held early as a part of the Read to Achieve Celebration. Before the game, 4,000 kids were at FedExForum for the Read to Achieve program. The game was held early so the children could attend the game after the program.
