  • The Pelicans forgot to play the Grizzlies

    Yeah. Next game is Friday.

  • Game On: Pelicans @ Grizzlies

    It’s time to see if the Pelicans can keep their momentum.  After edging out a tight one against the Warriors, they get to take on the Grizzlies tonight, an opponent who they have been very good against the past couple years.  The one thing you should note, however, is though the Grizzlies are frequently being […]

  • Pelicans snap losing streak against Grizzlies

    Anthony Davis left his fingerprints all over that game as he showed just what kind of dynamic two-way player he is in the league.  We’ll talk more about him in a bit, but I do need to say this game belongs to the bench.  Ajinca, Withey, Rivers and Evans all had important contributions to the […]

  • Game On: Pelicans @ Grizzlies

    Playing the Grizzlies used to be a good matchup for the Pelicans.  Davis could out-quick both Gasol and Randolph.  Jason Smith and Ryan Anderson were both shooters that would make one of those two guys chase them where they didn’t want to go.  Jrue Holiday could match Mike Conley.  Tony Allen could only guard one […]

  • Pelicans handle Grizzlies

    The Grizzlies showed how badly their perimeter defense has failed tonight as they had little that could keep the Pelicans trio of guards from penetrating.  Prince is looking old,  Tony Allen(injury maybe?) didn’t seem as locked in as I’ve seen him,  and though Conley was game, he couldn’t be everywhere.  Without the massive Gasol in […]

  • Game On: Grizzlies @ Pelicans

    A wounded bear arrives to eat. Will he lose his eyes? The Grizzlies have been bitten by the injury bug this season and they have missed games from centerpieces Marc Gasol (9 and counting) Zach Randolph (2), Tony Allen (5 and counting) Jerryd Bayless(2), Ed Davis (6) and Quincy Pondexter (6 and counting).  Gasol and […]

  • Pelicans stomp Grizzlies, coast to win

    Just to make us all scratch our heads, the Pelicans stormed out of the gate against the Grizzlies, showing no tiredness from playing the night before.  They proceeded to smother Zach Randolph when he was on the court, force turnovers (they are one of the best five teams in the league at this!) and dominate […]

  • Game On: New Orleans Pelicans @ Memphis Grizzlies

    There’s a leak in the boat.  And now a Bear wants to get in. The Grizzlies haven’t come out of the gate gangbusters this season as they adjust to a new offensive scheme under a new coach. (and the fact Zach Randolph was a little fat)  They now stand at 2-2, having beaten the Pistons […]

  • Grizzlies Can’t Bear the Hornets Frontcourt

    In surprising fashion, the New Orleans Hornets defeated the Memphis Grizzlies 90-83 at the Arena. Not only was this a win by a non-negligible margin, but the Hornets led for the entire second half with the lead ranging from 1 to 16 points. The Hornets starting frontcourt played for 67 minutes scored 41 points on […]

  • Grizzlies win in a game with a ton of subplots

    For a game I didn’t expect to hold a lot of significance, this game had a lot of fascinating subplots.

  • Game On: Grizzlies @ Hornets

    The Western Conference-leading Memphis Grizzlies travel down the Mississippi to take on the Hornets.  How can Anderson and Company take them down?

  • Hornets Fall To Grizzlies Despite Jack’s Big Game

    Jarrett Jack and Trevor Ariza gave it their all, but it wasn’t enough to propel the Hornets past the Grizzlies on Wednesday night.

  • Game On: Grizzlies @ Hornets (With Live Pre-Game and In-Game Chat)

    The Hornets take on the Grizzlies for the fourth time in 16 games (including preseason), Quincy Pondexter makes his glorious return, and we’re here to talk about it all night long.

  • Preseason Game On: Grizzlies @ Hornets

    Buzzfest. Live music. Beer. Hugo. Honeybees. Basketball. Those are the things that you will miss if you don’t come to the first and final preseason game at The Hive tonight. Sure, it’s only preseason, but this is your first chance to really see Eric Gordon/Commissioner Gordon/Air Gordon, Chris Kaman, and Al-Farouq Aminu playing in person. […]
