Also in the lock out season practically everyone was injured. We also were missing our best big man off the bench.
Your right I did have it wrong. Still dude played more than half the season and at least health wise seemed pretty solid come playoff time. He just wasn't ready for the man beast Reggie Evans

You are one dumb ****. If you even watched the series he was hobbling around the whole game. He barely could run. If someone is playing on 1 leg I hope another nba player would have his way against him, stop bringing up griffin he didn't even play the 4th cause he was a liability defensively and offensively, wasn't hitting free throws and his jumper is broke. Look at z-bo stats the playoffs before he had a crazy run similar to dirks run 2 years ago.

He and Gasol dominated McDyese and Duncan 2 years ago when he was in top form. Last year he was no where near himself in the playoffs or end of the season. It might have seemed like he was ok but if you watched him play here night in and night out, you'd know the difference. Go back and watch the playoff series against the Spurs and Thunder 2 years ago. It's not even the same person because of his injury. He seems to be as close to 100% as he can be now though.

I think if the Grizzlies play OKC in the first round, then OKC is bounced in the first round.

Lets remember that last year was a lock out season with no training camp. So he wasnt really in the best shape to begin with. 31 games in a lock out season is like 45 in a regular season. Imagine coming off an injury doing 13 games in 17 nights? Just admit that its very likely that he was not %100. Its just ignorant to think otherwise. Dude is averaging 16/15 a a game now. Weather or not he was %100 then doesnt mean shit because he is %100 now and will beast. zbo would embarass evans if they played tomorrow.

They have maybe the best chance against the Heat, but they could lose to another team. Besides, LBJ is hard to stop in 7 game series.

Grizz can def beat any team in the NBA when Zach, Rudy and co are on fire, I think they have been a contender since they beat the Spurs back 2-3 years ago, the team plays atheltic smart basketball and they have shooters not much more you can ask for def a threat to anyone.

This team goes as Z-Bo goes. He's back to his beast mode.
I like this team a lot. As long as everyone stays healthy, they'll be dangerous.

Can you imagine how unstoppable they would be if they still had OJ Mayo

It was obvious that OJ Mayo needed to be the #1 option to be effective. He ain't getting that in Memphis. Good for him to do well in big D.
You think he'd still be as effective on 24 minutes off the bench?

Re: Grizzlies are legit contenders in the west
We are legit. Just have to stay healthy. The bench is allowing our startersto actually rest throughout the beginning of this season.

No you misread it. During Grizzlies series they were great, especially Reggie. I was saying some are using that series to say they were a huge part of the team but the rest of the year Martin was average and Evans was one dimensional. With the Odom we have gotten though I definitely miss Evans.
