stayed up to watch AI but they win in every stat and still loose. One man basically beat them.

Now im tired and mad-they wont get my money. Sacramento is . . .we must be worse. Should have won by 20 tonight.

Sacramento 2nd team beat our high dollar team that is suppose to put cheeks in the seats. I don't think so. Crazy.

There were some good things to take away from this game, though.

they blew sacramento out in most stats, yet let spencer hawes and kevin martin light them up. I hate this team sometimes

not really, we had no business losing this game

This has got to be the worst defensive team in the NBA! Plus, I saw multiple times where Rudy Gay was standing around with his thumb up his but. If he doesn't care, trade his a$$. Because it was obivious he didn't tonite.

Thabeet is AWFUL god he is going to make some easy big money riding the bench

Our "high dollar" team as you call it has the fourth lowest payroll in the NBA. The Sacramento Kings are spending $5M more on payroll than we are.

You guys were watching a different game then me. We should have won at the buzzer, but we are so much better than last year. This team will get it together and contend for the 8 spot before it is all said and done.

Is it too early to talk about Thabeet not living up to the #2 draft pick hype?

At mid-season you can make an evaluation. It's way too early now.

Tyreke Evans only had three points. Is he a bust too?

he played one minute and I could have done what he did out there

We lost to Sacramento at Sacramento. Nothing new here. They haven't beat the Kings there in like a decade.

If u havent noticed, the Grizz are a helluva lot better than previous years, they will get it together soon be patient.

"Babbler"- how applicable.

We have what, as many 100 point games up to this point this year as we had all last season? I see a change in the Grizzlies ability to score and I think that will transcend to people wanting to see the games, no matter if they lose or not. I am going to go ahead and take the positives out of this game. But then again some just like to soothe their consciences by telling themselves how crappy the Grizzlies are so that come January and there is nothing to do on a Saturday night, they can stay at home and complain about how the Grizzlies don't speak for the city of Memphis good enough and they don't deserve to be in the Bluff City while contributing to abysmal ticket sales (and then ultimately blaming it on the franchise again).


It's a vicious cycle and fortunately I support the team through thick and thin, so I can get to sleep without having to talk myself into how good of a fan I am and that they are lucky I even think about them and talk about them on a message board so I shouldn't waste my hard earned money on them (even though my post time points to otherwise).

DON'T YOU DARE TALK ABOUT OUR HALLOWED TYREKE LIKE THAT.


Speaking of former Tigers I am proud of: CDR tonight, he was the high scorer for the Nets.

Did Thabeet foul out?

He came in for one play, fouled, and he was out. So yeah, he fouled out.

Actually we beat them there last March...for the first time in a decade...lol

Grizz are now 2-27 @ Arco Arena all time.

Grizzlies D is HORRIBLE!!! Obviously they have the offensive skills in place - but if you don't play defense with some intensity then it doesn't really matter.

If Zach did foul out OT might have went our way

Who cares all NBA games are designed for the home team to win.
They play so many games that they have to have the home teams win to give the fans a reason to come back.

The home team always gets the bulk of the calls, so losing an NBA game on the road is expected.
