And it won’t be because Allen Iverson had even the resemblance of a positive impact on this team. Maybe now Mr. Heisley will accept the reality that he has a smart coach, an intelligent GM and let those men do their jobs. Heisley has a lot invested in this team and I can understand his desire to have some control over what happens with the team. However he pays people to make those calls. If he doesn’t trust them then fire them and hire someone else. Just quit thinking you know more than the experts. You don’t.
Memphis is lucky that Allen Iverson is gone. If Heisley keeps interfering they likely won’t be lucky again.

If you’d taken bets on which player would thrive and which would be gone three weeks into the season, the classic loser with effort problems facing a great young center and the #2 draft pick or the former All-Star and Finals contender whose only competition was Mike Conley? I’m betting Z-Bo would have gotten his fair share of the action. He definitely would have from me.
The Grizzlies aren’t necessarily succeeding at anything in particular, they’re just working very hard, on every play. We’ll have to see if it holds (it won’t), but for right now, they really are a fun team to watch. Of course, I said that last year about this time, and then they imploded into tiny little pieces.

I was going to make some sort of worn out comparison to the hot crazy girl, but it’ s played out. So instead, I will simply add that the Memphis Grizzlies give love a bad name.
