I'm pretty much sick of moral victories, but... that match against the Lakers, we definitely picked one up. Don't get me wrong, when you're in the midst of a playoff run in mid-March, a loss is tough to swallow. Plain and simple. But seeing as we were without Zach Randolph (still) and Rudy Gay, we can rest easy knowing that in our 116-111 double-OT loss... eh, who am I kidding. This one really hurt.
I thought the Grizzlies were one of the great stories of last season. ZBo has had a horrible reputation throughout his career, but seems to have found a home in Memphis. He's been hurt and the team has suffered. But going into the season, you had Rudy Gay, Zach, Gasol, Conley, Mayo, and a lot of depth on the bench. You had taken OKC to 7 games in round 2. 30-23 is a fine record, but how much better with a healthy ZBo?
