A dominating performance by the Grizzlies tonight

[hatfieldms]

I was a little worried how they would respond on the road after the ****** game the played Friday night. Needless to say they dominated the Heat tonight from the beginning. An impressive road win. I can't wait for tomorrow night

It's good to see them playing well after a long few years!

The Gasol-to-Mayo-to-Rudy ally-oop on the fastbreak was awesome. And it's nice to see the Grizz dominate on the road despite Z-Bo struggling.

There should be a big, rowdy crowd at the Forum tomorrow night. If they pull a win out of that one, watch out.

Everyone one was great, Thabeet gets a 2 thumbs up for 5 blocks, including 2 that sent that wimp d-wade's shot to the crowd. Everyone may love #3, but I think he still sits to pee with his "I need a wheel chair 'cause my shoulder hurts" performance.

I was shocked on Sportscenterthey had a Top 5 Rudy Gay Dunks of the Game. Usually you would have seen about 5 highlights of Wade and the final score. I was impressed last night.

Tonight's game is big with Boston coming to town. If you have DirecTV and aren't going to the game, I think the Grizz SportSouth feed is being shown on channel 680 and 680-1 for the HD.

Also, I watched the NBA Gametime highlights on NBA TV. At one point in that show, they broke the news that Jonathan Bender was signed by the Knicks.

NEW YORK - The New York Knicks have signed free agent Jonathan Bender, marking the oft-injured forward's return to the NBA after a three-year absence.</p>

Knicks president Donnie Walsh announced the move in a statement Sunday.</p>

The 7-foot Bender enjoyed his best season in 2001-02, when he averaged career highs of 7.4 points and 3.1 rebounds in 78 games.</p>

But injuries forced Bender to miss 172 games over the next three seasons before chronic knee pain sidelined him indefinitely in February 2006.</p>

Bender was selected out of high school by Toronto with the fifth overall pick in the 1999 draft and was acquired by Indiana in a trade on Aug. 1, 1999. He formed a relationship with former Pacers president Walsh during their time together in Indiana.</p>

"Jonathan has worked extremely hard in preparing himself for a return to the NBA," Walsh said in the statement. "I know him to be a young man of the highest character from my relationship with him that dates back 10 years to his rookie year and I think he will be a fine addition to our team both on and off the court."</p> <p id="hn-distributor-copyright"><span><font color="#666666">Copyright © 2009 The Associated Press.

Heed the Hang Time word, though. The Grizzlies are rising in the Western Conference. And trust me when I tell you, few things are more fun to watch than a young team coming into its own.
