Wed, 11 Mar 2009 20:08:30 -0500

Anyone who has watched Jerryd Bayless play basketball will tell you he can really play the game at a high level and that's why he was listed as the 4th best player in the draft.With the Blazers picking 13th in the draft it was impossible to think Bayless would be the guard they ended up with..............but the Blazer GMagician does what he does best and put a deal together that got them the super-explosive combo-guard Jerryd Bayless.The Blazers can always use another shot maker and this...

According to several sources including ESPN and the San Antonio Express-News, 12-year NBA vet Damon Stoudamire may join the Spurs as early as tomorrow, when he officially becomes a free agent. Stoudamire's buyout with the Memphis Grizzlies was finally completed late Monday, and although it seemed Boston was the front-runner to land the sharpshooting guard, that all changed when San Antonio became part of the equation.

"According to league sources, the Celts are checking out other possibilities and it's believed they may have interest in another player, thought to be Sam Cassell of the Los Angeles Clippers. That matter would require time to work out, but the C's will have to move quickly on Stoudamire if they want him."

Juan Carlos Navarro: Ties NBA rookie record for trey's in a game

Sun, 18 Nov 2007 16:32:18 -0500

November 16, 2007 (New Orleans at Memphis) Juan Carlos Navarro, 27, the 6-foot-3 rookie guard out of S.F. Llobregat, Barcelona, Spain, is finally paying dividends for the Memphis Grizzlies who conveyed a future first-round selection this year to the Washington Wizards in order to get the rights to sign Navarro. Despite a heart breaking loss in overtime to the visiting Memphis Grizzlies (120-118 OT), Navarro played his finest game as a member of the Grizzlies, finishing with "a career-high 28 points, going 8-of-9 from 3-point range, part of Memphis' 15-of-24 shooting outside the arc. Navarro tied the rookie record for 3s set by Jason Kidd in 1995 and Chris Duhon in 2005." The Associated Press added: "Navarro connected on his first seven shots from the field, the first five from 3-point range to kick-start the Memphis offense." "I'm happy for my game, for my feeling, but if we lose, it doesn't matter,'' Navarro said. "The rim was very big for me. Some days it's very big; some days it's small.'' Superb shooting by Juan Carlos Navarro! Now all he has to do is prove to Grizzlies Head Coach Marc Iavaroni that he is worthy of more playing time. However, I think that Villanova's Kyle Lowry, who is more athletic, seems to have the inside track among the Grizzlies glut at the point guard position (Damon Stoudamire, Lowry, and Navarro).

Back in Vegas

Tue, 31 Jul 2007 19:52:19 -0500

I became an official member of the Memphis Grizzles on Sunday when I finally signed my rookie contract. I was very excited to be signed, but it was short lived because minutes after I signed I was off again to Las Vegas. I ran into Julian Wright in Phoenix while waiting for a connecting flight to Vegas. He also was headed to Vegas for the camp. There are a lot of players here for this Vegas camp (Amare Stoudamire, Julian Wright, Richard Jefferson, Al Horford, Acie Law) just to name a few. We basically work on skill development in the morning session and run full scrimmages in the night cap. Everyone is staying at the Palms and it's one of the better hotels if you ask me. There's no telling who you will see in the lobby. I'm very excited about the upcoming season. I think we will be a very exciting team. Rudy Gay, Damon Stoudamire, Hakim Warrick and Andre have been working out with me in Vegas and we've been doing really well. They have us on the same team during the scrimmages. I will head back to Memphis on Friday and let you guys know how the rest of the camp goes.
