yowza!  

I guess Orlando took the loss to the Celtics out on the poor Griz
Orlando 113, Memphis 71

That would really make my season btw.  If the C's just blew out a horrible
team by twenty points or so.  It would be great to see the rooks out there
in garbage time and our starting unit laughing it up on the bench resting
for the next important game.  That is what real championship teams
do.  Blow outs are really important in such a long season.
