Two nights after Zach Randolph led the Grizzlies to a big win over the Denver Nuggets, he took the Grizzlies back to the promised land, leading the pounding of the Warriors 121-108.

Z-Bo led all scorers by dropping 33 points and snagging 18 rebounds, 6 of which were offensive, which was a huge boost for Memphis tonight.

He was complemented by the rest of the starters though. O.J. Mayo and Marc Gasol each had 22 points (Marc's stat line was stuffed tonight, with 9 boards, 4 assists, 2 steals, and 4 blocks) , while Rudy Gay only managed to score 16 with 2 blocks in limited minutes. Mike Conley rounded out the bunch with 11, the low total a result of some serious shooting woes (5-15 from the field).

Another good home win for the Grizzlies, who are pushing ever closer to .500 despite their difficult schedule lately. Our residents by the Bay, Golden State Of Mind, have their own take, and I'll have more in the morning.

Grizzlies Defense carries Team to Win

Don Nelson should be ashamed. They have too much talent.

Zach plays another monster game.

Conley’s turning into an NBA point guard.

Stephan Curry looks like a young Steve Nash. Needs to improve shot selection.

I didn't think Conley looked that good...

But Stephen Curry definitely does. Also Golden State has talent, but it’s so young and mismatched. They’ll improve by leaps and bounds with Biedrins back.
