December 5, 2008 Mike Conley is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Clippers. Kyle Lowry started at point guard.
Our View:To our knowledge, there is no injury. Lowry has deserved this start as he has played every bit as good if not better than Conley this season.
November 28, 2008 Mike Conley could be dealt to the Trail Blazers, according to Yahoo Sports. This would be a multiplayer trade in which the Blazers have been discussing trading forward Travis Outlaw to acquire Conley. The Blazers' Sergio Rodriguez and the Grizzlies' Hakim Warrick and Javaris Crittenton are also being discussed. It is unlikely that the trade would go down with Conley and Outlaw being swapped one-on-one.
Our View:If this trade does happen, it would reunite Conley with his college teammate Greg Oden.
November 22, 2008 Mike Conley had his best game of the season on Saturday, but it was still far from spectacular. He scored 14 points to go with eight assists while squaring off with Deron Williams' backups.
Our View:That's two straight games with 14 points. He had failed to score more than 10 in his first 11 game, but this could be a sign that he is turning the corner.
