While the Memphis Grizzlies may be enduring a difficult season this year, there was a time where they were one of if not the most feared team in the NBA. They boasted one of the toughest and most skilled groundouts in the NBA with Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph. While their backcourt of Mike Conley and Tony Allen would terrorize the guards and wings of other teams. This Grizzlies teams was one of the most iconic of the 2010s and lived by a simple mantra, Grit and Grind…

In another world, if the pacers trade Ja happens and they he grizzlies picked right, Kawhi would have been a great fit on the grit n grime grizzlies
These were some of my favorite teams to watch, mostly cause they bodied the clippers
I love these long videos
Y'all should review the spurs dynasty since they are most likely going into a new era with wemby and remind people of what got them to this current situation they're in right now
People actually giving my Grizzlies their props🤧
My favorite era of hoops was while I was rooting for the Thibs bulls. This squad was kind of a spiritual sibling to that one. Tough d, good point guard and couldn’t shoot.
as a Canadian I cant wait for the Dalano Banton episode
Not even a grizzlies fan but this team was one of my all time favorites. I remember how all the attention used to be on teams with high profile stars like the thunder clippers and spurs, but this Memphis team used to beat their asses consistently, and did it with such pride, loved seeing that, and that’s what the nba is missing today. Great video as always and about time there was a video like this on the grit and grind grizzlies
Kudos to the BUT screenshot collector
Everytime is a different one
It still pains me that they traded away their shooter Wayne Ellington and backup big Marreese Speights for Jon "we got you for salary dump so we don't have to go over the luxury tax" Leuer in 2013. They already lack shooters and Speights was a good backup big for them. Chris Wallace was a terrible GM. (Josh Selby and a future first was included but it's nothing noteworthy)
Nice nerazzuri shirt men
People forget how good Gasol was. If Lebron had Gasol in Cleveland for his first stint he is winning multiple rings.
Finally!
The most underrated channel got a sponser. About time!
Dang yall outdid yourself today hour and a half 😅😅
Even though I’ve grown up on the East coast I watched a lot of West coast ball growing up because I usually put games on before bed and fell asleep to games, and the West games were usually on at like 8-12 here. SAS, OKC, LAC, and GSW were definitely the A side of the matchup that I was tuning in for but I always enjoyed them going against the Grizzlies.
We honestly should have a spurs dynasty retrospective.
The fact that these Grizzlies were as competitive as they were for a pretty long time despite the ridiculous amount of boneheaded draft picks, trades, and signings by their front office is kind of impressive. If they even got half of those mistakes right, it's not far fetched to suggest that they would've at least made it to the Finals once.
Wow a whole hour of content dedicated to the Grizzlies 🙂
BASED
can you do the phoenix suns 2010
I just missed this early 2010's playoff atmosphere man
I’m from Memphis and used to go to these games I’m so glad this team will always be remembered by true nba fans
keep rudy gays name out your mouth
Love your retrospective, keep making vids like this
Grit and Grind made me a Grizzlies fan and I miss it soo much even though it was slow as hell😂
Great video guys! Please do a video on the history of load management!
When will you guys miss
Can you do pg pacers next
When will we get the Detroit Pistons championship team retrospective video?
This is why I love your stuff
goated content
Crazy that the blazers picked who’s considered the biggest bust of all time while the grizzlies grabbed their best player of all time and they were teammates which makes it that much freakier
I love yall bruh. Real nigga shit mane
This is the team that made me fall in love with basketball and my hometown
I started watching NBA back in the 2013-14 season (like at the start of it) and by the end of it, Grit and Grind Grizzles caught my attention. Every game they played or in every playoffs series they would play, it was for me exciting to watch how one of THE BEST defensive teams played the game. This era of Grizzles made me a fan of them and the whole game overall. Even today I throw some remarks to my friends on how THIS team was just super good overall. (like "back in my day this team was…")
(Now time to watch the video)
This video really made me happy, first because that grit and grind era finally got the respect they deserved. I’m from Tennessee and I was in the military around that time so I was repping the grizzlies hard!! That squad did some amazing things together and for them to stay together that long was an amazing thing to see. I really wanted us to win one but we wasn’t beating that San Antonio team 😅
The multiple Reggie Evans mentions is so funny to me bc I just realized I'm working with his daughter 😂
Fellow OKC fan here. I used to hate seeing them in the playoffs almost every year, but those were some good and thrilling series nonetheless.
Y’all gotta do “the process sixers”
