Man, that Memphis Grizz team in 2012-13 was so underrated, Z-Bo and Marc Gasol were having a great season and they were both all stars i believe that year, Gasol had a great year and he won DYOP that year also
Yeah I forgot to mention it..that was the year Marc Gasol won DPOY but only made 2nd team all-defense
DYOP- Defensive Year of Player.
😆
I was they would have made the finals that year
shouldve went to lebron
Lebron got robbed for DPOY
It's a real shame Memphis just isn't a popular free agent destination. They had a solid team for a while in a Western Conference that was incredibly tough. Just one All Star/Superstar level player could've pushed them over the edge and made them real contenders
Our front office was just stupid look at some of our past drafts
It should've been Rudy Gay, but too bad he couldn't hit that ceiling.
akeme25 should've kept k love but was salty about the NCAA tournament
Daiton they also can't rebuild. Bad trades, worst contracts, many of them.
They needed a big player to pushed the Grizzlies to a playoff team.
They should have never left Van city.
When Gasol was arguably the best center in the nba
Noah, Hibbert, Gasol, Duncan, Dwight, Ibaka (pretty much played Perkin's role), Bogut, DJ, Horford, Tyson Chandler, Asik, Lopez twins. These guys made it fearful for anyone to drive in and were mobile enough to bother mid-range shots consistently, very reminiscent of 90's defense. This mini era of respectable big men in the paint 09' - 13' may primarily be the indirect cause to the quick transition and evolution of the fast ball movement, run and gun 3pt playstyle we see today which both championship Spurs and GSW were the first to perfectly execute and master, which is now being emulated by almost every single team this era.
@@DelightFools asik 😂
lmw 02 ayy man its true tho 😂 nobody tried the Turkish giant when he was clogging the paint (except that one time Westbrook posterized him haha)
@@DelightFools I totally forgot about asik
@@DelightFools lay off the drugs guy. None of those guys were as good as you made them seem. The two best Centers at the time were an injured Howard and Bynum and no one was even close. The 2013 season just showed a lack of good centers overall with the best power forwards being Blake Griffin and Kevin Love. The best players were mainly point guards in 2013. The center position was so dead.
They way you described Rudy gay it sounds exactly like Andrew wiggins
Good comparison
Why are you insulting Rudy Gay like that?
Well people expect Wiggins to be the next LeBron but instead he became the Canadian Rudy Gay
Mr Vryant lol nobody expected him to become the next LeBron.. come on now
@@chrishandsome4267 when he was entering the draft many experts hyped him up and compared him to lbj
I like how the Grizzlies consistently played GS tough.
lol seriously, I feel like the Grizzlies, Nuggets always give the Warriors trouble regardless of their standings.
Grizzlies always gave teams like warriors, spurs, and thunder trouble.
It’s cause we would wear them down and not focus on offense
And they play gs again in play in haha and eliminated them lol
Yeah, Because of their Tough and Gritty Defense
Just imagine if the grizzlies didn't waste the 2nd pick in the NBA draft. They could've added a superstar instead of the 7'3 thabeet
J Repass19 Giannis
If they only picked Harden instead of that bust Thabeet.
J Repass19
Omigawd! Yeah! Thasheem was a heart breaker
J Repass19 they could've got Harden
J Repass19 yeah they could’ve gotten Harden or DeRozan
Guys don't understand until this season we had consistently been in the playoffs and have always been one star or all around wing away from real chip contention .
Always bringing those unique topics 🔥
Mj plz like my comment on ur next video
Hi
Ay whats up bro
Dirk Nowitzki plays soccer and fails miserably!!!
ua-cam.com/video/8Y-Q1fK30GI/v-deo.html
Yep
Rudy Gay became a beast when he got to Sacramento. Shooting efficiency and defense got a whole lot better. That version of Gay could've got Memphis to the finals
False.
Too bad the rest of that Sacramento team was ass so he pretty much put up meaningless stats. He wouldn't have gotten traded if he got his efficiency up sooner, though now that I think of it, he probably still would've been traded anyway because his playstyle wasn't a good fit for the team anymore.
He did good in Toronto too. Before Derozan and Lowry were one the best backcourts in the east.
They got sweeped by the Spurs, how's a "better Rudy Gay" gonna get them over the Spurs? Lol.
Jayden Dash h
*Grizz* fans where you at
Rip
Here!
Right here
Here
GrizzKid11 are you black
now marc gasol is 2019 nba champion. we'll deserved.
I think Memphis is 1 superstar away from being a heavy championship contender that season. Imagine a better Rudy Gay.
Imagine if they took Harden instead of Hasheem Thabeet in the draft
PG would have been a great fit.
MJ Alejo ur funny
Imagine paul George? The pacers were the Grizzlies of the east around that time
*was
Still wanna know why the 2005 Grizzlies are in 2K lmao
Stevie Buckets had a history season that year. Tough defeat to the Mavs.
Andy can you do a video on how good Dennis Rodman was?
Please!

You know it was the Memphis Grizzly
The Grizzlies should’ve won it that year. Both them and the Pacers of 2013 remind me of the 2000 TrailBlazers.
Showing love to my team another reason you're my favorite UA-camr
Grizzgrind Productions Hey! Hope you’re doing good! I upload great nba content! Can you hit me with a sub and stay active? I will appreciate your support and feedback! Thanks!
I noticed the Grizzlies along with the Clippers, never had a consistent starting small forward
And the pels oh yeah yeah
I mean there weren't many good small forwards anyway that year. Almost all good sf were on huge contracts and some are still developing like kawhi and pg13. What they needed was a good shooting guard they should have gotten redick or korver. Tony allen isnt good at shooting anyway they should have traded him.
Tayshawn so underrated. One of the best role players ever.
Role player? Lmao
That block Reggie Miller
Dude tayshawn at his prime is a perennial allstar what you smokin.
@@abigailparaan9093 He's never made an all-star team though
Great video, that Grizzlies team was good fundamentally and I enjoyed watching them
I’m from Memphis so it’s only right I watch this ! Preciate the love for the city Andy !!!
One of my favorite teams during that time! That grit and grind was real !
The background sound came back! I love it.

You forgot to mention how in the following season when they went to 7 with the Thunder, Zach Randolph didn't even play that game 7.
Because he was suspended for punching Steven Adams in a jaw in game 6
Abraham Thomas 7:18
@@tyronemalone5484 I know, my point is that if he hadn't been suspended, we may be looking at the Grizzlies very differently. I don't disagree with the suspension tho.
@@bsimmonds1733 he mentions the series but not that Randolph was suspended for the game 7
And they went to OT in 4 straight games.
Great video, love Randolph
With such a great content you deserve more subs. :)
Great vid

Glad they get some recognition, always liked them
Great video left a like
I remember hoping for a Grizzlies and Pacers finals that year once they both reached the conference finals. Loved this team!
Saltine Savior8 If that finals happened, neither team is scoring over 90 points
Do the 2004 FINALS please
Ill start working on it
Hey andy hope u have great weekend but dont keep me waiting on ur content anymore u hear me!!
I feel like this man is reading my mind with my favorite topics In history
It's about time the Grizzlies get some love on your channel!
This makes me cry
this is great i like to learn about specific seasons or a period of time in a teams history. I'd like to see something about the Utah Jazz with Boozer and Williams.
the matches of grit n grind memphis team against okc are always fun to watch.
The Grizzlies also didn’t extend Lionel Hollins contract after they went to the WCF
I miss this so much
This channel is underrated. A real gem for hoops fans.

Loved to play with Memphis back in 2k 11 and 12
Your the only one that talks about the Grizzlies thank you 😂
I remember their good line up and I cant believe after a long time they didnt get to Finals.
best basketball youtuber hands down
This Grizzlies team was built like the mid 90's Knicks.
You are the best NBA channel

Great video Andy! #GNGforever

Those grit and grind teams made me a Memphis fan and I am still a loyal fan. They should be much better this year pending injuries and I loved them drafting Jaren Jackson Jr. since he could honestly spark another great era of great defense.
u were right
Sounded like a great team. Hope to see the Grizzlies in the finals one day.
That was the best season by record, but that wasn’t their best season in terms of chances of winning. The season where they were up 2-1 against Warriors before Conley and Allen got injured was their best chances.
This I completely agree with. If they stayed healthy and beat the warriors, they would've probably gone on to win the NBA finals. That was their best opportunity to win the NBA finals.
nah, this was the year they went to WCF so I'll say this was their best year
@@alexiscando5709 they got lucky
🐐🐐🐐😤😤 new video
Rudy did good with SA
Thanks for putting Respect on my Team! GRINDHOUSE!!!!!
And now Grizzlies are bringing the GnG back with Valanciunas! JJJ + JV is gonna be fun to watch
Wow, a video about my Grizzlies :D
Memphis is looking really good this year! I just hate how they are so underrated and never get any recognition AT ALL
I really appreciated that era squad. Grit and Grind. Grind House.
3:52 I didn’t know Jared Baylee’s had it like that lol
Congrats Marc
Do the 2000-2001 Portland JailBlazers please.
Ps. Zo was a part of that too.
Ja Morant is leading the Grizzlies pretty well so far.
The Grind House
Fkn love this channel
I loved that team and at the time when they were assembled we really looked like a championship caliber team if only things broke the right way for us. They never did however it was great to see the window open for a while and hope we could get in before it closed. Mike Conley Jr is now my favorite basketball player of all time over Iverson just because of this run. He once gave me a fist 👊 bump at the end of a game and Ruddy Gay gave me a head nod and the peace ✌️ sign because he was farther away and a reporter was talking to him. Great times and the arena is literally off Beale Street
2012-13 and especially 2014-15 Memphis Grizzlies is such an amazing team!
Memphis was rocking during those years
Lionel Hollins was key for the next year as well. The coaching is serious.
I loved this team
Jerryd Bayless was a boss coming off the bench in those Memphis years.
Andy hoops = goat 🐐
Automatic like for doing a video on my team
My fav team in this decade...
The biggest problem for the Grizzlies was a combination of not having the guards needed to stand up to the elite ones in the league, and their depth being okay, but nothing great. Still, they did have a strong frontcourt with Marc Gasol and Randolph in the paint.
The Grizzlies vs The Clippers series was some of the best basketball I've seen in my life. Right up there with Bulls vs. Jazz.
Jeremy Seal
Spurs v Heat the same year was better.
tteverywhere 97 That was great too.
Can u do more videos on older eras as most of ur videos are on 2000s +
Can u do a vid about the clippers please
*sigh* I miss the old grizzlies
The current Grizz Team(21-22) is contending for that spot Ja (27.4PPG) only age 22 is special and potentially could be all time great and Bane(18.6PPG) has really shined in his sophomore season along with good complimentary players like triple j(16.3PPG) and Dillon Brooks(14.7 PPG) they have a real good chance this season
Miss this team 😭
Those guys were tough.
Andy plz do the 2012 -13 Knicks or the 2013-2014 Knicks
They got Morant now
Spoiler alert
You drop that 2013 Grizzlies in the 90s and I'm sure they would win a championship even with Jordan around. The pace they played in 2013 was the slowest, but you compare that pace to the one 90s teams played and the 2013 Grizzlies would have one of the fastest paces if they played in the 90s. Combine that with their stellar defense, and they would have the chance to become a dynasty if they played in the 1990s.
The Grizzlies are so underrated
This was like my favorite team ever
you should do one of these on the 2014-2015 hawks a.k.a "The Spurs of the East"!
To make the playoffs every season from 2011-2017 in a tough stacked western conference. Should’ve shown how talented the Grizzlies was. Their core pretty much stayed with Conley, Gasol, Randolph, and Allen. Hopefully Conley comes back Healthy, and Jaren Jackson turns out to be a pretty solid draft pick. They’ll be able to make some noice in the West again.
GREETINGS FROM POLAND! GREAT CHANNEL TO PRACTICE ENGLISH ;-)
make a video on the 2013 new york knicks (i am a knicks fan)
Senior Kidd, Smith/Shumpert, Melo, Stodamire, Chandler. Probably the best squad since 95-96 which is just pretty damn sad 😢
u should make more greatest team ever of a team vids
