    Too late to make an official detailed one but heres one just for discussion.

    Tonight were playing without Bosh and Ford so Calderon will be starting.

    smitch had some puzzling coaching moves in the closing minutes. keeping dmartin in and not playing caledron was the biggest blunder, especially in light of martin's late game play.

    Man, I'm pissed. I was like why the hell would he take Calderon out after one posession! Rasho did a pretty good job on Gasol, but Mike Miller just killed us with the 3's. Eh, whatever next game Bosh and Ford are back (most likely).

    Except for that reach on Gasol where Gasol got the AND 1. In the 4th Q, Rasho defended Gasol pretty well.

    I'm kind of happy for the Grizz, just because it was their new coaches' first game and their record is pretty bad atm, they needed the win more.

    Yea, I was surprized when Mitchell took out Calderon after 1 possession. I was also kind of worried when I saw Garbo on the floor getting his calf/achilles massaged.

    And my question, when does Bosh come back?

    Bosh wanted to play tonight according to this one article, but Martin told him its better to come back at a home game. So he said he'll probably be back on Wednesday. Next week for sure though.

    Are you serious? Because Chuck was saying he had the "flu".

    Mo Pete seemed to play pretty good. He hit some shots, made a steal, spaced the floor well.

    Parker gave Mike Miller too much space on one 3, the other one, it was on transition, and he guarded it the way most people would have.

    The Grizzlies have some athletic strong SF/PFs, Stro, Gay, Warrick, Gasol.

    Yea, Mike Miller did show a pretty strong performance against the Raps. I don't feel like checking how much he gets paid per year, but if it is reasonable I wouldn't mind trading for him.

    Mike Miller did pretty well, the only thing I'm concerned about is him jacking up random deep threes.
