    Memphis/Laker Game Tonight!

    Are the Griz capable of stepping it up, for pride's sake, after a 61 point beatdown two nights ago?

    Memphis is pretty much a G-League team at this point, but heck--don't some of these guys want to impress?

    I would think the top brass would be embarrassed to not show some effort tonight in front of whoever is dumb enough to buy a ticket in Memphis tonight.

    Memphis' problem is they face a much more-skilled Lakers team tonight, who have lost 4 in a row themselves. There's no quit in the Lakers.

    Lean to the LAKERS -5, but I like the OVER 218 even more. Lakers will try to run 'em out of the building.

    From the LA Times

    Update: Memphis lost by 61 points to the Charlotte Hornets on Thursday. The last time the Lakers played a team that had been embarrassed in its previous game, they played the Orlando Magic. Eager to redeem themselves, the Magic dominated the Lakers.

    Interesting, Gaucho......but one wonders if Memphis even has the ability to step it up. We'll definitely see their better players tonight, Gasol at al.

    But, like I said, Coach Luke ain't gonna let the Lakes get caught napping tonight.

    I feel like the Lakers got embarrassed in their own right in their last game against the Pelicans. I live in LA and am a huge Laker fan. It was a layup drill for the pelicans. Expect their D to step up. Lakers TT over might be better play than the game over

    Grizzles and the Bulls are the 2 teams you wanna consider fading right now in the NBA.. They are both playing so bad.. Injuries are killing those 2 teams... Bulls especially...

    Harry, I doubt the top brass of Memphis suit up tonight, with that said it's a pass for me.

    Lakers improving lately, Grizzles regressing lately.. Harry might be right on this one JJ..

    I personally don't like it enough to bet it myself though... I'd say the Lakers probably win and maybe even cover though... Lakers haven't played bad on the road lately either.. Something to consider..
