Mike Conley hit 11-of-22 shots and two 3-pointers for 26 points, 10 rebounds, nine assists and a steal, just missing a triple-double in Tuesday's Game 2 win over the Thunder in OKC.
Conley was fantastic tonight and clearly enjoys not having to deal with Russell Westbrook in this series. Marc Gasol came through with 24 points, five boards, five assists, two steals and a block, Zach Randolph added 15 points and eight boards, while Tony Allen had 12 points, seven rebounds and four steals, despite shooting just 4-of-12 on the night. Game 3 is in Memphis on Saturday, where the Grizzlies will try to hold their newfound home-court advantage.

Mike Conley shot 5-of-15 from the field for 13 points with five boards, three assists, two steals and one 3-pointer in 38 minutes during Game 1's loss to the Thunder.
He didn't shoot the ball well against the Clippers in the first round, making just 40.8 percent from the field. Conley has never been much of an efficient shooter, but he was terrific after the All-Star break with field goal shooting of 46.0 percent. He should have better luck against Reggie Jackson and Derek Fisher in the rest of this series.

Mike Conley scored a career playoff-best 28 points in Monday's Game 2 loss to the Clippers, hitting 9-of-18 shots (1-of-5 3PTs, 9-of-13 FTs) with three rebounds, nine assists and two steals.
Conley and Tony Allen played about as well as they could against CP3 and Co., but once you got beyond Marc Gasol (17 points, seven boards, one steal, three blocks) and Zach Randolph (13 and eight with two steals) the Grizzlies just didn't have the firepower to keep up with a hot Clippers squad.

Mike Conley had a strong second half in a 112-91 loss to the Clippers on Saturday, finishing with 12 points, one board, five assists, two steals and two turnovers.
His fantasy owners will tell you how great Conley was in the second half and he put up first-round value in that span. Conley missed all three of his 3-point attempts and the Clippers having the best defensive efficiency against opposing backcourts is going to make it tough on Conley in this series.

Mike Conley scored six points on 3-of-8 shooting with four rebounds, three assists and one steal, as he and his starting teammates were all benched in Monday's win over the Mavs.
The Grizzlies still have a shot at enhancing their playoff seeding so hopefully their guys will play in the finale, but we might have also gotten a preview of things to come with tonight's deployment. Marc Gasol scored six points with seven rebounds, six assists and a block, and Zach Randolph had nine points and seven boards in the win. No starter logged more than 24 minutes.

Mike Conley had six assists vs. one turnover in Saturday's loss to the Clippers, but he scored only 12 points on 4-of-11 shooting.
Conley didn't have any steals vs. Chris Paul and company, and his lone turnover was brutal -- a blown entry pass to Zach Randolph with seconds remaining and the Grizzlies trailing by two points. It's not the clutch performance we hoped for in a big game, but there's little doubt he'll bounce back vs. the Mavericks on Monday.

Mike Conley had a long overdue quiet game on Friday, shooting 4-of-14 from the field for 12 points with seven boards, five assists and two steals in 36 minutes.
He's in the running for best point guard since the All-Star break. In that time frame, Conley averaged 17.6 points, 6.5 assists, 2.3 steals and 1.4 triples on 47.2 percent shooting from the field. He's going to be on a lot of championship fantasy teams this year.

Mike Conley had 20 points, seven assists, two steals and a block on 8-of-13 shooting in Tuesday's cakewalk over the Bobcats.
He was easily the best player for the Grizzlies tonight and should continue to start until further notice - especially with Jerryd Bayless hurting.

Mike Conley attacked the Kings all night long on Sunday, finishing with a game-high 25 points, three rebounds, four assists and two steals, while making 9-of-14 FGs and 5-of-6 FTs.
He even hit two 3-pointers to round out his latest brilliant game. Memphis has won five of their past six games, and Conley's fantasy owners are probably doing just as well -- he's a borderline first-round option over the past two months, scoring 17.2 points with 1.5 threes, 6.7 assists, 2.1 steals and impressive shooting percentages. Keep this in mind on draft day next year.

Mike Conley continued his impressive second half on Saturday with 19 points, four assists, two steals, one block and three 3-pointers in 33 minutes against the Wolves.
Since the All-Star break, Conley's averages in points, assists, rebounds, 3-pointers, steals, blocks and field goal percentage are all up from before the break. Don't look now, but he's turned in first-round value in standard leagues over the past month and is one of the best players to own in fantasy hoops.
