GameThread: Memphis Grizzlies at New Orleans Hornets

Memphis Grizzlies at New Orleans Hornets, Mar 3, 2010 7:00 PM CST

Meant to represent ESPN cutting the NBA game tonight.

No NBA on the back end of ESPN's Wednesday double-header this week, but at least we've got this game to watch. The Grizzlies and Hornets have gone at it in two very entertaining games this season, even though the Grizzlies have lost in both of the thrillers.

The key matchup has to be between the frontcourts. Mike Conley has been playing better as of late, but Darren Collison has been a force. O.J. Mayo has really played poorly lately, which I think is a large reason why the Grizzlies haven't gotten many wins lately, but Marcus Thornton is a similar type of guard in terms of size and athleticism, which is normally a good matchup for Mayo.

Obviously the Grizzlies have the advantage down low on paper, but tonight they're going to have to make that count if they want any shot at evening up the season series.

From my understanding this is a HUGE game. We get a win tonight it puts us 3.5 games behind Portland, Dropping New Orleans 5 games back. And through some weird twist of faith if the Kings can beat Houston we get a little bit of breathing room.

Not a bad 1st quarter but it did get a lil sloppy late. Headline is CONLEY can make lay-ups. Oh happy day.

Solid 1st Half

but the first half hasn’t been the problem, so let’s pray super hard that they close out the game with some consistency. Conley and Young playin some good ball.

Can't believe Conley just went off...

Collison has been solid defensively this year.
