    Tremendous effort to rack up a triple double despite not starting.

    His game tonights begs the question of whether we truly need to sell our soul to get another PG.

    Can we get through with the two we've got along with Mike handling the ball a bit?

    Miller had a monster game...first triple double for any Grizzly in Memphis if i'm not mistaken...The grizzlies need to hang on to Miller no matter what...although i'm not sure Bobby Jackson and Antonio Burks can lead the team in a playoff series...

    Regardless, he played 41 minutes.

    Yeah, was the first one for a Grizz in Memphis. Pau has gotten close in the past, but always sits rather than chasing numbers.

    Go away, it's getting tired now.

    Yeah, Bibby did get one.

    That's why we said in Memphis when describing it as a first.

    Absolutely wonderful to see Mike back up the triple-double with a great game tonight.

    18 points, 16 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals, 4 treys.

    Given consistency has always been a problem it's great to see he could back it up with a solid effort again.

    Well done Mike.

    I don't think you can get down on anyone on the Grizzlies for their consistency given how balanced our offense is.

    I've been saying since the beginning of the season that Mike should be starting, and probably be our 2nd offensive option behind Gasol. In the last five games (not counting today's), Miller was averaging about fifteen points and six rebounds per game, and then he went off tonight for a career-high thirty points, as well as six rebounds.
