Over the last few seasons, the Memphis Grizzlies front office has appointed the tandem of Mike Conley and Marc Gasol as the franchise’s lifeblood. The duo has looked out of sync on more than one occasion during the Grizzlies early season struggles, but tonight, Marc and Mike carried the Grizzlies to a 102-101 win in Denver.
Winning in Denver has been a difficult task for the Grizzlies over the past few seasons, and despite building a huge early lead, the Nuggets made sure this would be another trying contest in Denver.
The Grizzlies opened with a bang, racing ahead to a 37-23 lead by the close of the first quarter.
