The Grizzlies are favored by ten points.
I hope Troy Bell at least gets a few minutes tonight, but I'm not really counting on it.

Same here. I was very impressed with him in his limited minutes during the Nets blowout in December. Even though he burned 87-year-old Robert Pack. I want to see this guy succeed.

I don't like the PG matchup in this game. Barbosa is 6'3" but his wingspan is as big as 6'10" which makes him play even bigger. Jason Williams has had problems in the past with bigger point guards (Brent Barry, Marko Jaric), and it hurts that we can't plug Mike Miller in at the point for at least the next week or so to handle the bigger guys (even though Barbosa would be quicker than Miller in this situation...).
Pau also had two rebounds against Stoudemire in the November matchup. Phoenix isn't nearly as good right now as the team we saw then, however.

Bonzi to Stro for the nice alley-oop and the foul. |

I hope you all saw that. Jason Williams just dunked. He stole the ball from Barbosa and dunked it. Yes, I said dunked it. That's the first time I've seen him dunk in ages.

You're kidding me. I wish the game was being shown here -- that would have been nice to see.

Gasol's playing a great all-around game so far, despite not scoring a bunch. He's rebounded far better this game than in the November Suns game.

Gasol just recorded his 7th block -- his third in forty seconds!

Gasol blocks Voskuhl for a career-high 8 rejections.
Good game for Pau. Grizzlies are up 93-88 with 1:20 left.
