Grizzlies' Joerger Compared To Thibodea

Found May 07, 2013 on RealGM:
PLAYERS: David Joerger,  Lionel Hollins
TEAMS: Memphis Grizzlies
David Joerger, currently an assistant coach under Lionel Hollins with the Memphis Grizzlies, is considered one of the top candidates for head coaching jobs in the future. Joerger's assent to the NBA began in the IBA, CBA and D-League. “He loves the craft,” said one NBA general manager. “Look what he’s done with [the Memphis] defense. He’s got Thibodeau’s thing for defense, but he’s a lot more likable than Thibs.”  Joerger is known for having a great understanding of what each player on a roster can and cannot do, maximizing their strengths.

If you’ve ever encountered the species of former NBA fan-turned-anti-NBA viewer, you have grown familiar with their excuses. Once Michael Jordan left the NBA, many people shut the league out. Maybe Allen Iverson’s tattoos pushed them away. It may have been the game’s tick-tack foul calls that sent them packing. If those things didn’t shut [...]The post The Memphis Grizzlies...

Via Orlando Magic Daily  |  May 07, 2013
For those wondering where Anfernee Hardaway has been since retiring from the NBA, he has been back in his hometown of Memphis.

Grizzlies - Thunder Game Two: Heavyweight Beats Middleweight

Not Game Footage, Honest You might think, from this blog and my general proclivities for all things Warriors, that I can only appreciate racehorse basketball with crazy numbers, Western Conference stuff that's basically the ABA for the 21st century.
