Ok..more info on this now.

OKLAHOMA CITY ― The Grizzlies' Tony Allen woke up Saturday with swelling around his eye as a result of contact with Oklahoma City's Caron Butler during Game 6, according to a source with knowledge of the situation. He was seeing a doctor Saturday in hopes of being able to recover enough to play Game 7 at 7 p.m. vs. the Thunder.

Allen left shootaround accompanied by two Grizzlies staff members. He was wearing dark, thick glasses. Head coach Dave Joerger provided few details. Here was the exchange:

Reporter: Can you tell us what’s up with (Tony Allen)?

Joerger: Uh, no.

Reporter: Will he play tonight?

Joerger: Possibly.

When pressed further, Joerger said he was concerned about the situation entering Saturday night's Game 7 vs. the Thunder but would not elaborate on the nature of Allen’s condition, be it personal, health-related or otherwise.

Suspend Butler!

But, maybe Zbo was pissed off and Tony said the wrong thing to him.

Beno has just been suspended for having hookers and blow in his hotel room.

Dammit, boy! We're screwed now..

One of the greatest series ever comes down to a joke of a game 7..yeesh what a turn of events.

My problem with this is, if KD and LJ are so much better than anyone else in the league, how come they can't play and be accountable for the same rule book? 'Cause they don't.

Ding ding. That is correct.

“The pain is still there,” Mike Conley said despite his injured right hamstring. “but nothing I can’t play through, I think.”
