After losing to the Spurs and the Pacers at home, the grizzlies took 0-2 on the road to Seattle where they came away with a win from the 0-5 Supersonics and Kevin Durant.
Kevin Durant and Rudy Gay are friends and Durant often calls and talks to the Memphis forward, but the calls may not come for awhile after Gay laid 25 points and 10 rebounds to help push the Griz over the Supersonics.
The Lesbian Gym Teacher Mike Miller also added 20 points and the grizzlies are 1/22 on their way to equaling their win total from last year.
Marc Iavaroni got his first win as a head coach.
You know there really isn't a whole lot of interesting about this game except for the fact that natoriously bad for rebounding, Memphis grabbed 25 O. Rebounds against the Sonics. PJ Carlesimo (owner of the gayest name in proffesional sports except that forward for Memphis) was furious with his team for allowing that. In the closing seconds, Kyle Lowery grabbed his own offensive rebound and then drained a 3 pointer to seal the game up.
The key to slowing down a 6-9 Rookie scoring machine that averages 24 points per game like Durant? "Getting into his body and try to alter his shot," Gay said.
Durant ended with 17 points on 3-17 shooting.
