    I think the most impressive thing for me was seeing a 130pt game, where no one scored 20+ and 9/12 players that got minutes scored in double digits for the Rockets.

    Couldn't imagine being a Grizzlies fan right now. That must be miserable.

    Reminds me of how Portland got demolished by injuries last year. Must suck to see your team breakdown right before the playoffs

    We never had to field a D-League team, though!

    During that injury filled 2006 season, we had something similar. T-Mac and Yao were in and out of the lineup every other game, Rafer, David Wesley, Deke and Swift missed a good amount of games. The only starter/role player that was healthy was Juwan Howard.

    I swear, some games we put out:
    PG: John Lucas III, Rick Brunson
    SG: Luther Head, Keith Bogans
    SF: Ryan Bowen
    PF: Juwan Howard. Stromile Swft
    C: Chuck Hayes, Lonny Baxter

    Lucas, Brunson, Bogans, Baxter and Hayes were all 10 day contracts that season when everyone was going down. When Yao and T-mac both sat out the last month or so of the season, we basically fielded a D-League team plus Juwan Howard and Stromile Swift

    That year will forever be known as the Stromile Swift Year. Sad because that was supposed to be the year, we took a step forward.

    Fair. Worse than I remember!

    I just was watching that game last night and thinking "wow I haven't heard of half this Grizzlies team"

    At least he seems practical. Like what he did with his money. Not too shabby.

    it's incredible that in 30 sec, KJ scored more points than Brewer did in 15minutes....
