While there has been a ton of hours
logged discussing the various aspects of the draft night
trade that saw O.J. Mayo and Kevin Love change franchises, most of it has focused on those two players and sharpshooter Mike Miller while ignoring the other pieces in the transaction. Jason Collins should be a solid backup for the T'Wolves, while Brian Cardinal fills the need for a "token white guy" at ...

the recent article by ESPN's Ric Bucher about
the need for there to be chemistry between the
General Manager and Head Coach in an NBA organization.
Matt over at Hardwood Paroxysm emailed me last
week to ask me a simple question that has
been bandied about on the message boards for quite some time. That question was this: Why not take a stab at Josh Smith? He didn't use my response in his post about the matter, which is great for me, because now I can use it here.
Wikipedia defines a tsunami as: a series of
waves created when a body of water, such as
an ocean, is rapidly displaced. Basically what occurs is that an earthquake causes the ocean floor to drop at a certain point, while raising it at another ...
LAS VEGAS -- Grizzlies general manager Chris Wallace
sat courtside recently at the Thomas & Mack Center,
looking for a way to loosen a logjam in the backcourt. A well-connected member of the NBA approached Wallace a few days into the summer league ...
The problem for Iguodala and Smith: being desired
is wholly unsatisfying if perhaps only two clubs can
afford you, and one is the Memphis Grizzlies. Oh, suck balls. We mean basketballs, of course.
Then it would become the most impactful NBA-to-Europe
move yet. When a young, contributing rotation player born
and bred in the United States with every logical interest to stay in America decides to go to Europe, that leaves teams scrambling to replace him. If it becomes a regular occurrence, then it makes the already cutthroat business of international basketball even more cutthroat.
3. Memphis' third 'lottery' pick No general manager
is more maligned than the Grizzlies' Chris Wallace .
Over the last 12 months, Wallace has been accused of everything from handing the Lakers the Western Conference crown to getting swindled by Kevin ...
Josh Childress It made sense when J.C. Navarro
and Jorge Garbajosa opted to return to Europe after
spending a serious portion of their '07-08 seasons riding the pine in North America. But it would be an unprecedented move if Josh Childress, an ...
David Stern gave Vancouver a team again...and gave
a non-GM a ridiculous carte blanche of the league...who
does he select?
Alleged NBA basketball player Marko Jaric brought his
fiancee Adriana Lima with him to the ESPYs last
night, and it's easy to see why a gorgeous Brazilian lingerie model would fall for him. How could any woman say no to such a handsome fellow? That ...
Donte Greene declared for the NBA Draft after
just one year at Syracuse and was selected 28th
overall by the Memphis Grizzlies. He was then traded along with a 2009 2nd round pick to the Rockets for Darrell Arthur. Greene ended up signing a contract with the Rockets just five minutes before his first summer league game, where he dropped 40 points against the Phoenix Suns.
After seeing two full Spurs summer league games,
I thought I’d share my thoughts so far. Spurs
first round draft pick George Hill, whose college shooting percentages were off the charts, needs to regain some of that IUPUI magic. His shooting so far has looked horrific.
O.J. Mayo, the third overall pick by the
Memphis Grizzlies in last month's draft, made the most
spectacular shot of his career Monday night at the NBA Summer League.
The Memphis Grizzlies signed center Marc Gasol last
Wednesday, completing the trade that sent his older brother,
Pau, to the Los Angeles Lakers in February. The younger Gasol signed a three-year, $9.72 million deal.
It was easy to envision Internet message boards
devoted to the Minnesota Timberwolves exploding with anger as
Kevin Love missed shot after shot and committed foul after foul early in his NBA Summer League debut Monday. Yes, the 19-year-old rookie ...
LAS VEGAS O.J. Mayo dribbled between his legs
once, twice, and that s all Dwayne Mitchell needed
to see. Suddenly Mitchell was ripping the ball from Mayo s hands, racing downcourt and punching in a thunderous dunk that brought the crowd at UNLV s Cox ...
Rookie O.J. Mayo has been taking the shots
and calling the shots for Memphis during the Vegas
Summer League, leading the Grizzlies in scoring (18.7 ppg), field goal attempts (42) and turnovers (18). He is shooting well from all three ranges (.476 FG%, .615 3FG%, .889 FT%) but he has just six assists in three games, ranking third on the team behind Javaris Crittenton and Mike Conley.

The Bucks lost 88-79 to Memphis in the
first game of their 2008 Vegas Summer League campaign
last night ( complete game video / JS recap ). The main story from a Bucks' angle will be the struggles of Joe Alexander, who shot just 2/13 from the field ...
As we all know, the Memphis Grizzlies lost
their summer league game tonight against the Los Angeles
Fakers. Bad News? Well the bad news is that we lost to a team that has ONE guaranteed player on its roster. Coby Karl shredded us with his mediocre looks and subpar talent. Tis the nature of the beast I suppose. The Good news is that our team now knows the meaning of defeat, even in its simplest ...
Lakers Defeat Mayo, Grizzlies
By Maurice Brooks In their first two games,
the Hornets have been using forward Julian Wright as
one of their primary playmakers. So far, the results haven't been very good. In their opening game against the Grizzlies, he turned the ball over an ...
There has been a lot of discussion among
Grizzlies fans about the apparent logjam at Point Guard
on the team and how Memphis needs to make a move immediately to address this problem. I disagree and for some simple reasons. First off Conley is only 20 ...
Kevin O'Neill describes his defensive philosophy in simple
terms. And if the Grizzlies can simply stop people
this season, then O'Neill -- and a fan base deprived of defense over the past two seasons -- will be giddy.
Mayo Helps Lead Grizzlies Past Hornets
The critics will look at the box score
from O.J. Mayo's Vegas Summer League debut and see
that he turned the ball over eight times. They will point out that he only scored 15 points against watered-down competition. They will say that he wasn't even the best Memphis rookie on the floor -- that honor goes to Darrell Arthur (18 points on 9-for-12 shooting). And they would ...
The Milwaukee Bucks' summer league team took part
in their final tune-up Friday before shipping off to
play five games in Las Vegas. The Bucks open their schedule Saturday night against the Grizzlies at 9 pm, and though none of the games will be televised, you can watch them all live at NBA.com . Talking to players and coaches at the Cousins Center on Friday, It quickly became evident that ...

Hey! Remember this guy!? First off Randolph Morris
and Luke Jackson were both at the workouts today.
They are not going to be part of the Las Vegas team barring injury. Both players wanted to show the coaching staff how they are playing. I didn’t get to talk to Morris (he was still shooting when I had...
