A Better Team

I have been holding back on my support of the mid season trades.  We gave up some good players, but they didn't fit the chemistry of this team. Playing opposite of Zach  Randolph and Marc Gasol, Rudy Gay wasn't playing up to his potential. Coach Hollins said it best when he said "we traded someone who has to have the ball for someone who plays without the ball". Tonight Tayshawn Prince proved himself once again. He handled a hot Kevin Durant. He may be old but he has some good years left in him. Maurice Speights was good but he wanted to leave. He could never get past playing behind Zach Randolph. He would always be a backup. It's understandable he wanted to play somewhere he had a chance to start. When Zach was hurt he scored twenty- two points against New  Orleans. And came off the bench the very next game.

I am most excited about Marc Gasol. He has come into his own since the trade. He has finally started to go hard in the paint.  That 15-20 ft. jump shot is pretty, but it doesn't matter when your opponent is hitting threes and snagging all the offensive rebounds when they miss. Zach is an unexplained phenomenon. No one can figure out why he is able to do what he does. He is a  rebounding machine even though he doesn't jump.Marc Gasol is seven ft. tall though. He should be dominating the boards. Like he has been doing since the trade.  Everyone is playing better now  Some fans agree with me, others don't.  We  wouldn't be in the midst of this winning streak had  we kept  Gay and Speights. In my humble opinion. The Grizzlies are a better team.
