Memphis Grizzlies (14-17) @ Minnesota Timberwolves(16-11)



Last game: Memphis - Win, 117-109
Last game: Minnesota - Loss, 87-100

Projected Starting Lineups:











Reserves:









Minnesota blew-out Memphis in Minnesota on November 26th 115-90, when Memphis had former coach Hubie Brown at the helm, and were missing James Posey. Now, there's a new coach and Posey is back, but that shouldn't mean that there will be a difference this time around. Pau vs. KG is a very good matchup, but KG has the advantage. Minnesota should role, since they are an awesome team when they play in Minnesota.

T"Wolves need to make some trades. They have to get Spree and Sam out of there. Luckily Spree and Sam are on expiring contracts.

They played very uninspired today. Memphis wanted the game more, and they won because of that. Minnesota really really needs a center. They can pull it off time-to-time because of Garnett, but the trio they play at center is terrible. The defensive rotations are really slow for Minnesota, and it might be time to get Hassell back in there. Wally really is a great offensive player, but he doesn't seem to be concerned with defending on the other end.




Minnesota shouldn't dismantle the team yet, rather just bench these guys who don't want to play defense.

sam and spree wanting new contracts seems to have caused this team go go downhill. It don't even seem like they try anymore. Really sad. They care more about money (when they are making millions) than winning a ship

Pau is the man
