The Memphis Grizzlies Thread

[Pulscifer]

Although looking ahead a bit, an interesting fact: we haven't won a game in Houston since April 15, 2006. None of our players have beaten the Rockets at their place. 7 years. That's a crazy stat right there. Here's hoping we beat that streak Friday.

It's going to be the redemption tour for the Grizz.

1st round vs. Clippers
2nd round vs. Thunder.

Could it not potentially be any sweeter?

You don't think San Antonio keeps the 1 seed?

You don't think San Antonio keeps the 1 seed?

Yeah we would be playing SA...

 

[Nerd-Vol]

This game will be a real test for our third string guys.

 

[Nerd-Vol]

Apparently the Bobcats stopped by Saint Judes before the game.

It's really kind of those kids to take time out of their day to visit with those less fortunate.

 

[95 Vol Alum]

Good on em for doing that.

 

[Nerd-Vol]

Wtf Z-bo.

 

[MphsBlues]

Hell, just keep giving the ball to Conley. And don't shoot, Tayshaun, unless it's within a foot of the basket.

This is from Espn's weekend dime.

I know some of you all are FURIOUS to hear about this:

MEMPHIS GRIZZLIES



Lionel Hollins does not yet have a contract for next season. The emphasis, though, is firmly on yet.

One coaching source consulted this week said it was "very likely" that Hollins will receive a new contract from the Grizzlies after the playoffs, as initial frustrations from the coach in the wake of the Rudy Gay trade in late January -- and the bosses subjected to those frustrations -- have quickly faded thanks to the fact that Memphis still has the best team in franchise history even without Gay.

Word is that even a first-round exit is unlikely to dissuade the Grizzlies from trying to retain Hollins. There's also a theory out there that Hollins would actually like to survey the field, knowing he's sure to receive offers from other teams, but I'm not buying that one. Given how successful Hollins has been in Memphis and how well-regarded he is by Grizz fans, I don't see him looking to leave.

Let me say it again, Lionel is the Grizz.
