Memphis Grizzlies: The Extinction Of The Grit N’ Grind Era

Memphis Grizzlies fans were hit with a serious #WOJBOMB on Tuesday evening. ESPN’s resident source-haver Adrian Wojnarowski broke that – predictably, after the past month – Marc Gasol and Mike Conley were on the trade market.

It was a drastic turn from November’s West-topping heights. For the second year in a row, the Grizzlies had their chairs pulled out from underneath them. Last time, it cost them their season. This time, it will cost them their identity.
