Jarnell Stokes and Kalin Lucas ejected from D-League game for fighting ... each other.
Emotions ride high with the Energy. Last night when the Iowa Energy played the Rio Grande Valley Vipers, the crowd got more spectating than just the basketball game they came to see. During a timeout in the 3rd quarter, something sparked an altercation between the two. It appears multiple blows were delivered and Kalin Lucas was said to have been bloodied up pretty badly. There isn't any great footage of the incident (D-League on that beer budget), but this video gives the closest view I've seen, although I think this occurs after the initial breakout of the melee that included punches...

Next Day Notes: Grizzlies 109, Mavericks 90
I’m sure Dallas is glad to have Tyson Chandler back. Letting him walk immediately aftr the Mavs won the title in 2011 was something that Mavs owner Mark Cuban clearly regretted, and he’s a good player still who helps them win games.… [ Read more ] [ Subscribe to the comments on this story ]

Next Day Haiku Notes: Grizzlies 103, Magic 94
Last night the Grizzlies took down the Orlando Magic 103–94 in a game that felt like a blowout but wasn’t, one of the Grizzlies’ many patented “Hey isn’t this a bad team let’s just get a double-digit lead and hang on to it” performances against lesser opponents this season. After a back-and-forth first quarter—the Magic aren’t a good team this year, but they are young and improving, with Victor Oladipo, Nikola Vucevic, and Elfrid Payton all rapidly learning the ropes—and a masterful performance by Zach Randolph to open the game, the Griz went on a bench-led run...

Lineup Anxiety, Vol. IV: Should Tony Allen be a starter?
For the second straight game, Dave Joerger tried something new on Saturday night against the Philadelphia 76ers. Against Toronto, the starting lineup had been Mike Conley, Tony Allen, newly-acquired Jeff Green, Zach Randolph, and Marc Gasol, moving Courtney Lee to the bench, hypothetically as a shooting/scoring 6th man. Despite the fact that the Grizzlies won that game, it didn’t really work out too well, with the starters struggling to score against a Raptors defense that packed the paint and with Lee never really getting going, attempting only three shots in 30 minutes of...

In the News: Marc Gasol named All-Star Starter

Next Day Notes: Grizzlies 92, Raptors 86
Last night, the Grizzlies beat the Toronto Raptors 92–86 in one of the ugliest games we’ve seen out of the Grizzlies at least since the Charlotte Hornets last came to town. Everything was out of sync on both ends: offense, defense, shooting, rotations, rebounding, everything–but somehow the Griz were able to pull together a big fourth quarter (mostly on the backs of Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol) and close out the Raptors in a sweet revenge game for the last time these two played, when the Grizzlies were missing five rotation players to a stomach virus that ravaged the whole...

Next Day Notes: Mavericks 103, Grizzlies 95
Yesterday afternoon’s game did not go the way the Grizzlies wanted it to, but it could’ve been worse. At several points, the Griz had the ability to let it get away from them and coast to a blowout loss, but they never did, always reeling the Mavs back in from a 10- or 12-point lead.… [ Read more ] [ Subscribe to the comments on this story ]

Trail Blazers comeback falls short, Grizzlies win 102-98
The Portland Trail Blazers rolled into Memphis looking to snap a 2-game losing streak. Instead, they fell behind double-digits early, by 18 at the half, and by as many as 20 in a soul-draining struggle as the Grizzlies hardly missed a shot.

A Farewell to (Long) Arms: At the close of The Tayshaun Prince Era
When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one team to dissolve the contractual (emotional?) bonds which have connected them with a player, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of the Collective Bargaining Agreement and of the Collective Bargaining Agreement’s Commissioner entitle them, and trade somebody to another team so, y’know, title runs and stuff, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare some things about the player(s) who are outgoing, especially when said...
