So what was up with the replay yesterday of Rudy passing through Jawai's legs? I think Rice said something like "Good quick work by JO (I assume he meant you, HCP) and then MB saying something like "It was probably Tony"?
 
JL. Yeah my right hand man Tony( aka EWT on here )ran the between the legs replay and I did the Pryz smile. They gave me props and not my boy!
 
Whoa.. Raef LaFrentz, Jamaal Magloire and Dan Dickau on our bench with Zach tossing up 25-footers to win ballgames... and Jarrett Jack handling the ball. Yikes.

That's the game where he put up 40 field goal attempts. Un-fuckin'-believable.

On top of that he had 11 free throw attempts that night and 12 rebounds.

You could say a lot about Zach. (How is that for an understatement?) Dumb, selfish, lousy defender, crummy passer...but he wasn't lazy.

I sometimes wonder what kind of player he'd be right now if he could trade careers with Aldridge. Nate working on him from the day he stepped onto an NBA floor, surrounded by great guys in a positive environment. Oden covering for some of his defensive lapses. Not really being considered a primary scorer but instead an elite garbage bucket man, and somebody who could spread the floor for Oden.

I'd still rather have Aldridge. But a Zach Randolph with his head screwed on right, playing a team game and being trained to pass the ball could've been pretty special. As good a rebounding team as we have now, we'd be an all-time great one with him.

I'd rather have Aldridge as well, but probably just because he's taller, more athletic, and has more defensive potential.

But ZBo is a beast on the boards and on the block. I still maintain that he's the second best low post scorer in the league behind only Duncan. For all the shit he's maligned for here (even to this day), I don't think anyone can deny that he made the most out of his limited athleticism by working ridiculously hard. Hell, the year after his microfracture, he came back and put up 18/8; two years after it, he put up 24/10. Ridiculous numbers.
 
Hey isn't Memphis supposed to have some bad ass barbecue?:devilwink:

I gain three pounds every time I visit. Even the barbecue they consider crap would be the best you've ever had.

Well thats a good sign, but I did live in Houston for a while, and they have some pretty good stuff there too! So I would be amazed if that is true.

I think Texas has better brisket, but the pulled pork in Memphis is ridiculous. Also, if and when I do sauce my barbecue, Memphis-style sauce is my favorite.

It will be a week old, but I can if you want!
 
HCP, ask Roy if he's been asked to move to PF yet.

Interesting stuff. So I guess we shouldn't be surprised if Memphis takes the early lead, and we come back to win it. At least that's the trend the Grizzlies fans have seen.

I'd hate to see if other teams linked this board to get a feel about our team.

I imagine many of them would be perplexed at all of the negativity surrounding Brandon Roy on this board.

I know I am.
