Grizzlies Address & Roll Call 2014-15

[SD2042]

Alright everyone, as we all know, the 2014-15 season is less than two days away. Thx God basketball is back! I'm sure that a lot of things and issues will happen durin this upcoming season. Lots of players have changed teams, the Western Conference has gotten stronger than ever. These games will be tough and hard fought. From the coaching schemes, the players chemistry, and foundation of discipline, every win counts! This team cannot be caught behind the 8ball otherwise, good luck climbing up that mountain. I want to take the time to welcome new Grizzlies: Vince Carter, Jordan Adams, and Memphis's own Jarnell Stokes to the squad and wish them luck this upcoming season.

To you the fans who read, post, and lurk on this board, this will be an opportunity to us to get to know one another and share our debates and issues that will happen throughout this upcoming season and perhaps growing more traffic as the Grizzlies have proven to be a force to be reckon with. If this board can do that same, then we too can become a force to be reckon with.

Best of luck and Go Grizzlies!

Yep, Finally the long wait is over! I expect this season to be more or less as exciting as these last few years. Regarding our roster we have reasons to stay positive (Our core is healthy and nobody got traded to save some money) on the other hand, big moves we only landed Vince carter in exchange of mike miller. We knew Mr Miller fits in this franchise, About Vince Carter it is yet to be known. I remember I always used to sign him in videogames when he was in the raptors to play in the grizzs, so finally it happened! In the negative end, I have to add as well that I am concerned about our interior game. Clearly Zbo-marc are TOP among the NBA starters, Kosta Koufos is just ok and the list of realiable bigs is over. Pray nobody gets hurted...

I like when we introduce ourselves once per season so here I go!
