Game Time!!!
1...
1 Memphis win...
1 Minnesota loss...
Playoffs, part II...
A surging Memphis team will try to tame the Dallas Mavericks on the road tonight, where the team has not won since November 2000 (while still in Vancouver). A Memphis win will clinch the playoff spot for the Grizzlies. At this moment, they hold a 4 1/2 game lead over the Timberwolves, with 6 games to play. The T-wolves are idle until Wednesday.
The Grizzlies have been playing well the last three games, with big wins over the Heat, Raptors, and Bobcats to be winners of 5 of the last 6, and three straight. Dallas will be at full strength, as the Grizzlies hope to get James Posey back tonight, or Wednesday @ Houston.
Dallas won the first two meetings between the teams, who will also play on 4/20 to end the regular season.
Battier led the Grizz yesterday against Charlotte, with 25 points and 11 rebounds, while Mike Miller chipped in 21. Dirk led Dallas to a win Saturday against Utah with 24 points and 9 boards. Dallas is 10-2 under new head coach Avery Johnson, who took over for Don Nelson last month.
Should be a good one, and the Grizzlies would love to clinch here, or in Houston.
Let's Go Grizzlies!
Stay Tuned...
