<< Previous Next >> -------------------- November 17, 2002 10 deep The Memphis Grizzlies so far are...no, not different. Interesting is more like it. They lost to the Chicago Bulls lastnight so of course that was meant in a figurative way. For the season they're 0 and 10 From the Chicago Bulls Donyell Marshall and Jalen Rose scored 33 points a piece. Talk about coming up big. They each did it in less than 40 minutes too. The thing is they shot, shot and shot some more. They each had 23 shot attempts. On Memphis' part no one had as many touches. When we went back to review the team's history, Pau Gasol is it's first and lone rookie of the year. And he's not lame by any account. Why doesn't he get more shots coach Hubie Brown? He is Memphis' superstar. pau Gasol played 28 minutes, ands took 7 shot attempts, while racking up a ridiculously high number of assists - like 5. What was he doing passing? To make such matter worse the Grizzlies were playing 10 deep. Ten players did get to run, and none played less than 10 minutes. Coach Brown you were hired by the Grizzlies not the Kings. Once again, Pau Gasol clocked in just enough time for a quick glance - 28 minutes. There are stars and shooters on the team and there are also supporters. Stars should star in the game and let the supporters support. They can't all try to do each other's jobs. << Previous Next >> Back to archive main |
