Around SBN: SB Nation MMA Rankings for August 2010

Preseason: Orlando Magic

I've got a lot of work on my plate today, so I'll keep this short. The Grizzlies host the Orlando Magic tonight at 8 p.m. 

Storylines of the Night include but aren't limited to:

  • Lineup Swap- Who plays for the Magic, who plays for the Grizzlies, in what combinations? Those wacky coaches!
  • Young Guns- Time for O.J. Mayo and Rudy Gay to take over a game.
  • Dunkzilla- I've seen like 12 highlight reel dunks from Rudy this preseason -- accompanied by NOTHING else. Lets hope that Rudy hasn't actually taken a step back and become more one-dimensional, even if that one dimension is pretty cool.
  • Rudy vs. Rashard vs. Learning- Rashard Lewis is the yin to Rudy's yang. Lewis is the ultimate manifestation of a technically proficient Rudy, while Rudy is the pure energy and athleticism 'Shard lacks to become a superstar. Look for the two to fuse into one being during the game.
  • Hasheem the Holy Warrior- Can Hasheem Thabeet keep up his solid play that doesn't show up in the box score?

If Shard and Rudy fuse...

Do we get to keep the player? If not the forum will explode.

Ummm.

I think based on contracts we get to keep him for like 1/20th of the games, the Magic are paying for the rest.

Memphis Goes HUGE

Starting lineup of Mayo, Gay, Carroll, Randolph, Thabeet. On another note, I really like this lineup — great mix of offense and defense.
