Ben Wallace will not play tonight according to Windhorst. :thumbdown

I hope this news gives the rest of the team a dose of urgency.

Rep for being the bearer of bad news. Someones gotta do it. :chuckles::chuckles:

Perhaps in preparation for just this eventuality, Fred McLeod interviewed Wright yesterday. It's as much as Memphis BBQ as it is basketball, but it may be the most minutes he gets all year, so enjoy:

yea now we have to play two scrubs, Lorenzen and Wally...

 

[Damien O'Connel]

yea now we have to play two scrubs, Lorenzen and Wally...

and yet we're still he favorite over memphis

When LBJ is called to play PF he'll beat the shit of Darell Arthur. I think Andy should be able to guard Marc Gasol alright. We wont lose this game if we rebound. Rebound the damn ball should be all that Mike Brown talks about. Cavs have to go out and play all 48 minutes not just 24 . O and please dont fall in love with the jumpshot Mo and Delonte.

mate, you and I could play and we would still be favourites over Memphis!!

 

[KIisKing]

I think J.J will get the start and score 20 points and grab 10 rebounds.

Im hoping for Lebron to score +35 in the first 3 quaters and sitting out the entire 4th. hopefully the bench gets some good quality practice time in this game.

 

[King of the Cavs 23]

Big Ben will suit up and when we down and out in the last he will come back and lead us to an inspiring victory!!!

 

[KingSimba]

Maybe Jawad and Darnell will get minutes tonight

If we can beat the Celtics without Z we can beat Memphis without Z and Ben

Les Levine also just confirmed that Ben is out tonight for what it's worth.

 

[wuck]

I don't care how they do it. I just hope the Cavs score at least 1 point more than Memphis. I don't care how ugly it gets. I don't care if it's a mistake by the refs that can't be overturned. I don't care if the final score is 73-72.

If they do better than that, great.

This is one of those nights where "just" a win is plenty for me. :cheers:

Well, if Les Levine confirmed it....

Damn...
