    That would be amazing for the Grizzlies, although they'd need to somehow work in a somewhat decent wing into the deal, because they've completely depleted their perimeter depth with recent trades.

    I wouldn't be quick to jump on any Grizz trade rumors at the moment though. Management seems pretty okay with their current cap situation, and let's be honest, that's really their first priority with a cash-strapped owner. Gay has been rumored to have been traded to half the teams in the league, and yet he still wears a Memphis uniform... (unfortunately).

    Marc and Z-Bo part II.

    Looks like there's a good chance we'll see ya'll in the first round of the playoffs, and honestly, most Grizz fans are okay with that. The sentiment is that we'd rather be a in a 4/5 match-up against the Warriors than a 3/6 match-up against the Nuggets.

    Unfortunately for GS, it looks like they'll get one of these teams, both of whom have given them fits. The games should be completely different with Bogut though. A big reason they struggle is because those teams have massive C's and great rebounding 4's. Bogut can handle Gasol and McGee/Koufos.

    It sounds nuts, but I might rather play the Clippers than either of them. Warriors are 3-1 against them thus far.

    Their bench had like 60 points. ALL thirteen available players scored at least 3 points. Most of their starters only played 26 minutes. If we had a bench of just half that. *sigh*

    Jesus the Cavs are fugging depressing. Warriors fielding an all rookie-soph lineup of Charles Jenkins (2nd round pick), Kent Bazemore (UDFA), Klay Thompson (11th overall), Draymond Green (2nd round pick) and Festus Ezeli (31st overall pick) and they're still outplaying Cleveland's regular rotation minus Varejao. The Decision part deaux is coming up once Kyrie's rookie deal ends.

    Warriors incredibly hot without Curry, Bogut, Landry, and Harrison Barnes tonight.

    He'll be restricted though. I doubt he goes anywhere.

    Andre Drummond becomes youngest player ever to get 18 pts and 18 rebs off the bench.

    Interesting how some people are saying the Lakers are now "back on track".

    Yeah, they beat the Thunder, but they also beat the Jazz...at home...and the Hornets (barely) at home.

    If they have a strong record in their (starting tonight) 7 game road trip, then they might be "back on track".

    All those good wins are at home. They still have a 6 game road losing streak. If they are anything worse than 4-3 on this road trip, they are toast. Until they can show they will win on the road is when I will be worried.

    You can just watch them and it "looks" like they are playing better though. That is a start. I still think it is going to be tough for them but I can see that they are starting to get on the right track.

    How do you go 4-3 on a 6 game trip? :)
