i wonder if griffin is in a giving mood tomorrow
I would be concerned, as opposed to "scared", with the strong defensive intensity of the Memphis Grizzlies. They pressure the ball, they hustle, they steal the ball, they're big along the front line. Tony Allen is their X-factor. He's the reason the Rudy Gay injury means very little right now.
Rumor is that the Grizz will hold Conley and Gasol out tomorrow night. Even if they do hold those 2 out, the Grizz will still beat the Clippers...
I feel sorry for the grizz ,, they are going to get destroyed!
Not worried about the Grizz at all. It would just be gay that the Lakers would get a first round bye against NO.
The Grizz can beat the Spurs. It would be a very tough series.
let's not forget the extra things that Shane Battier brings to the Grizzlies, also. They are physical and they have the ability to neutralize everyone except Parker when he's in transition.
+1. It's not so much that I'm worried about the Grizzlies at all. I just want the Spurs to get New Orleans so that L.A draws the Grizzlies instead of New Orleans.
If the Lakers lose to Sacramento, they drop to #3, right? In that case, they would face Portland in the first round.
Duncan will be ready for them.
If the Grizzlies tank to play us, which would be obvious, they will humiliate themselves. They aren't going anywhere, so they should sack up and play there best. They probably would do better against the Lakers anyway.
If anyone is tanking to face the Spurs, they are idiots. Our 3rd string, putrid end of the bench of 15 roster, just took the fakeshow into a tie game with 6 to go and all their starters on the floor except Mr. Weakknees Bynum because his little glass ACL can't hold again. Good luck against the nets, fakeshow. You're exposed.
Hurray for moral victories
The reason they are doing that is because last time the Clippers tanked in order to get the Nuggets in the first round and the Grizz wound up getting the Mavs in 06.
the Grizzlies. They're asses are gonna get curb-stomped no matter who they play. So if they prefer it to be us, then that's fine by me.
lakers giving the order to ensure getting NO in the first round.
in Laker farm team tanking to ensure the Lakers get the easiest possible path by playing the Hornets.
the gremlins, we are not going to lose more than 1 game against them
Well, it looks like Hollins is going to sit Randolph again tomorrow night:
Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins decided to rest Randolph and Allen, who were not in the starting lineup against the Blazers but were in uniform -- albeit under sweats -- on the bench. There was speculation that the move was tactical to set up a favorable playoff matchup.
Hollins maintained after the game that both had nagging injuries that needed rest.
"I didn't want to play Zach these last two games because I want to get him rested and fresh. He hurt his elbow and he has the bad knee and I just didn't want to have him out there banging for two more games when we have the playoffs going."

I hope the Clippers ing tank worse than the Grizzlies tomorrow....
We"re gonna wax that grizzaly ass.
I'm really pissed off at how this bracket is turning out. Could it be any worse for Spurs?
If we can't get past the Grizzlies we were never going to win a championship anyway... Play whoever and win. We shouldn't be scared of anybody, nor wishing anybody is beaten by someone else. Bring them all on.
I don't see why people don't understand that it's not about getting past Memphis. It's about how beat up we'll be compared to LA's cakewalk side of the bracket come WCF time.
