The Grizzlies, I'm told, are also aggressively pursuing former Cavs and Lakers head coach Mike Brown for David Fizdale's coaching staff

The locals via Mike Brown's agent are saying he is unlikely for the Grizz, so hope we are not underwhelmed by the lead assistant choice. Mike Brown would have been a good choice, since he is very defensive minded with head coaching experience. His name does not get mentioned for head jobs when they open so I am not sure what he has going on that he could not take the job if offered.
