Marc Gasol might be relieved that the Memphis Grizzlies fired head coach David Fizdale on Monday. But some members of the Cleveland Cavaliers sure as hell aren’t. Dwyane Wade, who played under Fizdale during his time as an assistant with the Miami Heat, was the first to respond: [tweet https://twitter.com/DwyaneWade/status/935263536372174848] LeBron James, who also played [...]

David Fizdale didn’t even make it through one-and-a-half seasons as head coach of the Memphis Grizzlies. The Grizzlies elected to fire the second-year clipboard-carrier 19 games in 2017-18, as first reported by ESPN.com’s Adrian Wojnarowski, for reasons that aren’t totally clear. Sure, the team is 7-12, their playoff hopes fading fast. But they’ve dealt with [...]

Mike Conley hasn’t looked great to start the season. He’s shooting under 39 percent from the floor overall, just over 31 percent from three and not having a profound impact on the Memphis Grizzlies offense. They’re actually scoring slightly more points per 100 possessions when he’s off the court—an unsettling split that runs counter to [...]

Mike Conley is not having himself a good offensive start to the season. Entering the Memphis Grizzlies’ Wednesday night loss to the Orlando Magic, which he did not partake in, he was shooting 36.8 percent from the floor overall, 47.4 percent inside three feet of the basket and 26.1 percent from beyond ar—all by far [...]

While the Grit and Grind Era of basketball in Memphis officially ended this summer, the Grizzlies are still making sure to honor two of the most influential members of this great era of Grizzlies basketball even after they have moved on to different teams. I am talking about Zach Randolph and Tony Allen. Allen will [...]

JaMychal Green and the Memphis Grizzlies do not appear close to finding common ground. The 27-year-old is the best free agent on the market, someone who many expected to secure a fat offer sheet from aggressive rivals. But the market turned on restricted free agents—just ask Nerlens Noel. And now, he remains unsigned, despite training [...]

Vince Carter and Zach Randolph are gone. Tony Allen, still a free agent, isn’t far behind them. But that doesn’t mean the Memphis Grizzlies are ready to bust up what remains of their Grit ‘n’ Grind core. Trade-market buyers won’t want to hear this, but according to CBS Sports’ Matt Moore, the Grizzlies consider both [...]

The Grit and Grind Era officially came to an unceremonious end in the past few days as the founding father and heart and soul of the best era of Grizzlies basketball, signed a two-year, $24 million contract to become a member of the Sacramento Kings. Randolph spent eight seasons in Memphis, averaging 16.8 points and [...]

Chandler Parsons’ first season with the Memphis Grizzlies has been one to forget, and it’s unlikely we’ll remember it any more than we do now. Because he’ll hardly played. The Grizzlies announced on Monday night that Parsons has a partial meniscus tear in his left knee and would be out indefinitely. According to Tim MacMahon [...]

Chandler Parsons’ inaugural season with the Memphis Grizzlies is not unfolding according to plan. He missed the start of the year while recovering from meniscus surgery on his right knee. Then, after a brief return, he missed more time with a bone bruise in his left knee. Now Parsons is roughly two weeks into his [...]
