Oops

So I guess this is why I will never have an NBA GM job:

From June 30th, 2009 post:

• Don't do a sign and trade for Zach Randolph!

From July 2nd, 2009 post:

• So the Grizzlies could have at least made an attempt to get David Lee, granted we would have had to overpay him. According to Ric Bucher, Heisley gave the big "NO" Why? Why not at least try to get Lee or Paul Milsap? As far as I know, neither of those guys is a locker room cancer (I hate that term by the way). And I don't think they have a problem playing defense or playing within a system. So yeah, if you want those bad qualities, signing Randolph was great.

and

• So as the rest of the league gets better, we continue to build toward the futu...actually it doesn't appear we're building towards anything.
  
  Everything I've heard from people is this: Z-Bo's contract only has 2 years left. So he plays one year and if he sucks in that second year, the last year of his contract, he'll be a hot commodity because of his $17 mil coming of the books. So it looks like we'll have him for about a season and a half, right? What the fuck are going to do in that season and a half? We're not winning shit with this fucker on our team. So instead of having a Milsap or Lee for 4-6 years and building something, we'll be in the exact same position in 2 years that we are in this year. Circle of losing that everyone in Memphis has grown tired of.

Yikes...So I'm joining the growing number of people who are apologizing to Z-Bo and the Grizzlies organization for bashing the signing of Randolph. Horace actually quoted the last little post there last night and said I should say something. Now the guy is an All-Star and a great teammate. My bad, Z-Bo! Nothing but love now!

Grizzlies beat the Pistons in the Palace last night. As I was discussing with the fellas last night, if we want to be considered a truly "good" team in the NBA, we have to win road games against crap teams. Last night was big. It was close game that we led most of the time, the Pistons made a run to grab the lead late and Marc Gasol shut them bitches down! Last year, we lose that game. Having a team play with confidence is much more fun to watch.

Gotta mention the bench again. Outscored 33-4. We need help ASAP.

Note: I had no idea Chris Wilcox played last night, and started, until I saw the box score this morning. I didn't hear his name one time when I was watching. 1 point 1 rebound. There was a time when I thought the Grizz needed to make a move for Wilcox...another miss by Johnson. Sheesh.

Tigers:

Honestly I didn't watch but maybe 5 minutes total of the Tigers game. But I did see the end. And I watched as Pierre "Crystal Palace" Niles nearly cost us the game. Some guy named Shaquille Johnson missed two free throws for them late and Sallie sealed the win with 2 free throw makes. We are now 15-5 and in 3rd place in C-USA.

Music:

This is why T.I. is awesome, this song. And he's wearing a Bo Jackson jersey.
