    Somewhere there's a thread where I recommended taking Grizzlies OVER 48.5 wins

    3-0

    They basically swapped Mike Miller for Vince Carter on a team who was ravaged with injury last year and still won 50. They're going to be better than expected this year, as per the usual with this team.

    Marc Gasol also in a contract year and playing like it. Dangerous team that no one wants to play.

    Ask Blake Griffin

    well at least you have something. i don't have the actual bet, though i fully expect them to hit the over. i'm too much of a brokedik to have a bet in the air for 8 months.

    Minnesota, Indy, and Charlotte. And scored 71 against the latter.

    Wouldn't start walking to the window yet.

    They probably win right around that number. 47-50 games. West is even better this year than last.

    grizz will eclipse 48.5 wins and that's all there is to it.

    as far as me joking with laclippers, the clippers will win more regular season games than them. as well several other teams, but my post had more to do with the grizz being underrated this year than anything else.

    i actually can bump this after every game if you'd rather.

    the overall point of this thread is to let you guys know the books are undervaluing the grizzlies, and perhaps that could assist you with your capping going forward. it's just done in a self-congratulatory manner, which i understand rubs some people the wrong way, but go fukk yourself regardless.

    they could be 10-0 really going into the houston game, charlotte is a good win on the road, but the other 2 games were lay ins.

    I hate to hump this again, but the Grizz are now 8-1 after completing the biggest comeback in franchise history against the Kings.

    If you didn't see this one catch it on Sportscenter or some shit, they looked dead, had no time left after a bad Zbo miss and somehow still fukking won. How can you not love this team.

    I got the Grizz tonight at pk after they were down 11-2, then they proceeded to go further down. Even I thought they were dead, but no. Just keep your eyes open for value on the Grizz. They do not go down easy.

    POPCORN PLAYA

    20-4, and it ain't even the new year yet. just beat the warriors and snapped their 16 game win streak. was in attendance, the atmosphere was electric.

    this time around, i don't hate to bump this

    Solid team. Never expected them to perform this well. I thought all the sudden departures from the playoffs each year would wear on this team. Nice call Tex!
