Tonight's game may be tough. Memphis has won 5 in a row.

The Grizzlies are 12-5, having lost to Denver, Portland, Boston, Miami and Cleveland.

Fan support is not so good, though, at 16,152 home average in an arena that seats 20,142. In Memphis a week ago (Tuesday last) they lost to Portland before 14,555, and the Monday before that in Memphis they beat the Lakers before 16,671. Overall, the Grizzlies rank 24th in average NBA attendance this year.

The game is on Cox at 7:00 tonight, in this arena:

So, we've got our work cut out ... but ... WHO'S BALL IS IT??? HORNET'S BALL!!!

There was an interesting arictle in the Oklahoman pointing out how rough December will be. If they can get out of it at .500, that will be very good.

Correction to seating capacity - in my beginning post, I said that the FedEx seating capacity was 20,142. I must have been thinking about the Pyramid ... the FedEx seating capacity 18,119 or so.
