    This will be as tough a game as we've seen I think...Winslow, Grant and Nurk are going to have some heavy lifting on defense and we better hope Keon and Shae and Ant are scoring in bunches..

    Yeah, I would prefer to play anyone who can go against Memphis at home. Don't hold out both Hart and GP2 if they are cleared. This is a huge game IMO. Ja can get players in foul trouble very easily. We will need them both.

    I am most interested in how we play defensively. I felt we got complacent last game both defensively and taking care of the ball.

    Why likely no Hart? He will have had five full days off by the time of the Grizzlies game.

    Miami isn't even a Top 4 team in the East. Milwaukee, Atlanta, Cleveland, and Celtics are all definitely better.

    I wonder whether that's a good thing or not for us. Would you rather face them coming off a winning streak?

    We're better than all 3 of those teams. We're also undefeated on the road. They're scared of US.

    LAST year. They suck this year. Lakers won a championship 2 years ago. Now they are garbage. The past is in the PAST. Heat are trash. We're a contender.

    Memphis lost by 1 point to Utah on Saturday.

    they should have been super motivated to beat the Jazz tonight.

    Instead, they lost by 16 points.

    Bane (ankle) will miss Monday's contest against the Jazz, Drew Hill of The Daily Memphian reports.

    The TCU product will officially miss his first game of the season as he tends to an ankle injury. John Konchar and David Roddy both emerge as candidates to receive additional opportunities. Bane's next chance to return comes Wednesday against the Trail Blazers.
