Who:Memphis Grizzlies(9-22) vs. Boston Celtics(27-3) When: Friday, January 4th Where: TD Banknorth Garden Time: 6:30 PM CST TV/Radio: FSN/WRBO 103.5 FM Season Series: First Meeting Team Trivia Connection: James Posey played two seasons for the Grizzlies from 2003 until 2005.
The Lowdown
The Grizzlies came into the New Year 2008 with a win against the Indiana Pacers 90-72. Pau Gasol led the team with 30 and 12rebs. Rudy Gay had 24pts and 6rebs in the win. The biggest deal about the win was Mike Conley got the call to be insert into the lineup and delivered on a solid performance with 7pts, 8dimes, 6rebs, and 3stls. Conley's performance left most if not all Grizzfans impressed after the win. They will head further north to take on the newly upgraded Boston Celtics. Among the upgrades are Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen, who combined with Paul Pierce with the responsibility of the Celtics strong success this season. As they are riding a 9 game winning streak. They will look to get to win #10 tonight as they take on the Grizzlies.

They are only riding a 7 game win streak. You guys really have a lot of talent, but your record tells its own tale. So what is there to expect other than a Celtics win? Preferably by 10 points or more.

Should be a pretty good game. I haven't seen the Grizzlies young players yet.

The way this season has gone for both teams, I'll be happy if we can just see a competitive game tonight.

It would be good to see how they respond from the last win and use that momentum against the Celts Big "3".

Can we please make a Celtics Board. Every game you spend your time on the opponents board expressing your undying love for the Celtics and disdain for the chances of the opponent, My guess is that all you're doing is annoying the faithful Grizz fans and giving them one more reason to hate Celtics fans.

Sorry about the trolling.
Good luck, you guys have some top talent. This looks like a real trap game for the Celtics, as the Spurs discovered when playing you.
