Not sure on his minutes, but game is at home for us and they will be on back to back. Curious to see if they come out excited and fade.

Make sure he passes thru security on the way into the SKC.

Perhaps he won’t play…?

JJJ has been playing crazy hes had 40 point games. Bane has been good. If they have Ja, this will be a much tougher game than people think. Plus its on TNT- so you know Ja will be looking to make a statement.

There was talk a while back that they’d keep him out another game so he could return at home, but I somehow doubt that.

Not really Memphis news, but the game after will be against Cleveland who will be without Mobley and Garland.

Even with Ja back, Memphis has other serious issues with their team. It's actually been playing out almost exactly how I predicted it would for them.

The Pels will beat the Grizz regardless of Ja.

We get to play Cavs and Grizzlies both on b2b. Morant 1st game back and Cavs missing players. After that it’s Houston, Memphis, Jazz, Lakers, Nets to end December.

January:

Timberwolves
Clippers
Kings
Warriors
Nuggets
Mavs
Mavs
Hornets
Suns
Jazz
Thunder
Bucks
Celtics
Rockets

That’s a ROUGH month. We really need to take advantage of the next 7 games and try to get to 22-12, 21-13, 20-14 (at worst)

This


We really need to stay hot and simply take care of business and win these games we'll be favored to win, most heavily favored.

That'll give us a nice buffer headed into January, as it'll be a tough month and not expecting to separate ourselves much then, mostly treading water.

We need to break out now over the next 10 games(4 already in the books, all wins), just hold serve in January, then continue to separate after January.


Side note: I'm not sure if it's normal and I just don't realize it, but the remaining schedule seems to have way more 4+ game home or road trips than what seems normal to me.

Biyombo is doubtful tonight and Rose is out for a couple weeks. They get Ja back but they will be VERY thin

The brutal part isn't even the teams we play. It's the fact that we are on the road against Sacramento through the second game of Dallas during that stretch. 5 straight road games against Playoffs caliber teams on top of the tough b2b schedules.

January will tell us a lot about this team.

I guess that's the bright side. The FO will have plenty of data against good teams to assess our needs before the deadline.
