The Grizzlies are using a Bulls blueprint for Success!!

This may sound like lunacy to most die-hard NBA fans but all I ask is that you hear me out. I believe that whether the Grizzlies are, or are not aware of their personnel moves, they are shaping up to be a "bizarro" version of the Championship Bulls of old. Noooo..... i'm not saying the Grizz just got Michael Jordan in O.J. Mayo, because no one's ever going be Mike...it's just not going to happen. But take a look at the core of that first Championship team with Michael, Scottie and Horace? Mike was the ultimate competitor period, Scottie had an all-around game and Horace could nail the open jumper from the 4 spot. Not to mention, all three of them played tremendous defense together. The Grizzlies have Rudy Gay who should've won Most Improved Player of the year and he physically compares to Pippen. They traded for the rights to Darrell Arthur who has proven that he can hit the mid-range shot in college and he's also a defensive minded player. In additon they add a two guard like O.J. Mayo who offers heart and leadership that should prove an invaluable asset to a young Grizzlies team that welcomes a player with confidence. The real question is whether Mayo or Gay will take the role of Jordan? We know Gay can take and make shots in the clutch and Mayo has been an exceptional player up to this point but the answer is simple...no one can take the role of Jordan but just maybe they can become a hybrid of the Jordan and Pippen led Bulls. They also have a new player in Marc Gasol who looks like Longley and he might actually be the " tough" Gasol of the brothers. Lowry resembles a beefier version of B.J. Armstrong and Crittenton can be a young Ron Harper. There you have it....the Bulls of the Future! The Grizzlies starting lineup would look something like this: Lowry/Crittenton, Mayo, Gay, Arthur, Gasol Compared to the Old Chicago Bulls: Armstrong/Harper, Jordan, Pippen, Grant, Cartwright/Longley. Keep in mind that Scottie Pippen and Horace Grant arrived in the NBA when Jordan entered his third year in the league. Now, Mayo and Arthur have arrived while Gay is entering his third year in the league. What a coicedence, or is it? Maybe the Bulls are back but now they're back in the form of young Grizzlies!
