The way I see it, tonight's game versus the Utah Jazz is a huge turning point in the season for the Grizz. It's momentus for the team to come home after an impressive 3-1 road trip but to have to face the team you just lost to by 23 hurts. The Commercial Appeal featured a great article about the crowds and support at the Forum increasing (http://www.commercialappeal.com/news/2010/jan/08/grizzlies-got-game----and-fans/), and it's about time people start showing up. With all the schools in the city being closed today and therefore no high school sports tonight, I expect to see one of our largest crowds of the season out to see our new Grizz. If Memphis does our part, all I ask of the team is that they show up and compete and convince the city that they are for real and are a play-off contender. Every person reading this blog believes in the Grizz, but it's the other 1.1 million people in this city that need convincing. There is no better night to do it than tonight.
So do whatever it takes to get downtown tonight. If you have to bum tickets off your old man or call up some rich ex-girlfriend or just scalp them down there, do it. Let's show our Grizz pride and get people back in the Forum.
I believe in the Grizz life and love it
