Woo!!! First post!!!
You mean second post.
This schedule is seriously screwy. Haven't the SPurs played the Grizz three times already?
Yup. I remember the Grizz announcers talking about how we would play one more time then they wouldn't have to play us again.
They play the Grizz 4 times.
Although I will say this is the first time as long as I can remember that they have had to play a team all 4 times within a month it seems.
A technicality.GO SPURS GO!!!!

Game blog: Spurs vs. Grizzlies
By Joe Alexander
The Spurs are playing the fourth episode of what seems like their weekly meeting with the Memphis Grizzlies tonight in Memphis.
The Spurs beat the Grizzlies 94-81 on Nov. 24 in Memphis.
The Spurs beat the Grizzlies 109-98 on Nov. 28 and 106-103 in double overtime on Dec. 27 - both at the AT&T Center.
The Spurs are coming off a 100-98 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday. The Bucks outrebounded the Spurs 43-27 - a recurring problem for the Spurs this season. The Spurs have been slightly outrebounded by their opponents overall for the season.
The loss to the Bucks was the Spurs' only game in the last five days. Prior to that, the Spurs had won 11 of their last 13 games.
In case anyone missed this.
Jeff McDonald: Getting ready for the Grizzlies
MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- A couple of random thoughts, while secretly hoping Kentucky superfan Ashley Judd is in town for this afternoon's Liberty Bowl ...
* Fabricio Oberto, who has missed eight of the past nine games with a strained foot, went through shootaround this morning at the FedEx Forum. He could play tonight, but it will be interesting to see for how long. The Grizzlies have been going small lately -- starting Rudy Gay at power forward? -- so it could be a short night for many of the Spurs' big men not named Tim Duncan.
* The FedEx Forum is also the gym where Manu Ginobili made his long-awaited return from offseason ankle surgery, back on Nov. 24. In 19 games including that one, Ginobili is averaging 14.3 points. Talked to Manu a little bit at shootaround today. He said he doesn't quite feel like himself just yet -- particularly, he's not getting to the rim the way he is accustomed to -- but believes all that will work out as the season goes along.
* Here are Tony Parker's stats in nine games since his awful 3-of-17 performance at Orlando: 26 points, 7.8 assists, 3.8 rebounds, 1.33 steals, all while shooting 53.5 percent from the field. Just sayin' is all.
* Key tonight for the Spurs, obviously, will be getting a handle on O.J. Mayo, Memphis' rookie scoring machine. Mayo is averaging 19.9 points per game, tops among NBA freshmen. In three games against the Spurs, he's averaging better than 29 points. "He's better than I thought," Parker said. "He takes better shots than I thought he would."
Mmmm...Ashley Judd...while secretly hoping Kentucky superfan Ashley Judd is in town for this afternoon's Liberty Bowl ...

Whos watching the game?
Dam, we still have not recovered from the Bucks.
looks like we're focusing on the pick and roll tonight, since they killed us with it last game..
Has Marc Gasol copied Andrew Bogut's post moves? He is owning Tim thus far.
Matt Bonner drove in for a layup.
Grizzilies up 5-4
The arena is EMPTY
