Rudy gay was the man. With 19 seconds left, he scored a clutch-jumper. And what made things better is that he had a season-high of a dazzling 33-point, ten-rebound performance.
Zach Randolph, who's been a surprise all year long, added 21 points with eleven boards. Phildelphia's Lou Williams ...

Memphis is on a winning streak. Sure it's only two games against two teams Memphis is expected to beat when playing at home but after 7 consecutive losses, a PR disaster with Allen Iverson and a general malaise among local fans it is not something the youngest team in the league should ...

The Meeting. Sure, we hear about players-only meetings
every NBA season. I forget who, but some respected
NBA pundit once said that these meetings don't accomplish much -- just sessions for players to complain. Nothing changes. Fine, so the ...

I admit it: When it comes to basketball, I, too, am a sucker for flash. I like to see a guy break ankles on a crossover on his way to the hoop and throw up some sort of weird dipsy do heave that somehow magically goes in. I like to see a guy go for 40 or 50 points. I like to see a guy dunk ...

Well, well. How nice. The Grizzlies win two in a row, both of which could be termed, even for a team like the Grizzlies, "supposed to win" games. The Clippers were coming off a loss in New Orleans the night before, and the Grizzlies had been kickin' it around the hacienda for a few days since ...

their breaths, savor a win and try to build
for the rest of the season. After playing 7 games in 11 days and in 7 different cities the Grizzlies were allowed two days off to prepare for the Minnesota Timberwolves and the result was a dominating ...

Every ranking has the Grizzlies the same. Either
they are checking with each other (just for the
(Grizzlies) or it must be true. Either Wednesday's game with the Clippers will prove them right or wrong. Let's hope they are all wrong. Actually the 7 polls all agree on the same bottom 4, ...

Does anyone else remember when Allen Iverson told
the media that God told him to sign with
the Memphis Grizzles? " God chose Memphis as the place that I will continue my career , " Allen Iverson- I do and as much as I would like to say I am ...

Was Tim Donaghy in the stands or on
the phone somewhere???? Some WILDLY uneven officiating on both
ends tonight...but Marc Gasol got the consistent short end of the stick. Even the refs couldn't stop him, though. Hey, I didn't really need that paper bag tonight. Nice. Seemed like Conley is ...

With the Grizzlies already at a devestating 1-8
record, Lionel Hollins isn't going to quit. He is
standing strong with the team's starting five and he does not look to change it. "We're in a pit. It looks bad. But everybody has to believe it's not as bad and be willing to go out and work our ...

The Memphis Grizzlies are coming off one of
the worst losses of the season. They're currently on
a seven-game losing streak with their 1-8 record. I expected better, but with troubles going around the team with bench problems and Iverson leaving, it's just not looking good. But can the ...

Ron Tillery reports that there is a legitimate
family issue that Allen Iverson is dealing with and
that is why he has left the team. Tllery also reports that the Grizzlies did tell AI that they envisioned seeing him coming off the bench. Tillery's take is that AI just didn't want to hear ...

Did the Grizzlies screw up their bench this

was the Grizzlies bench last season that this question can even be asked? But it is being asked and for good reason. The bench isn't better than last season at this time . Last season's bench was ...

I might need one if I decide that
this bunch of listless losers deserves my presence at
another home game this season. No fire. No passion, except for ONE PLAY where Rudy actually fought Luis Scola for a rebound, got it, and scored the and-one. Were Mike Conley a puppy, he'd have his tail ...

Memphis heads into the third back to back
series of the season with a rather dubius mark
in these games of 0-5 so far. Allen Iverson is not expected to start, sit or suit up as he deals with his personal family issues (which means his egotistical issues about not starting). In his absence O ...

It's already like a bad-trip version of Groundhog
Day. Grizzlies get off to a good start, rebound
well, and fail to stop anyone on the opposing team. Hesitancy matched with, paradoxically, a total lack of patience on offense. An unwillingness to ...
