MEMPHIS – At 7-foot-1 and 265 pounds, Marc Gasol isn’t about the big picture – at least not yet.
By Gasol’s account, there will be plenty of time throughout the late spring and summer to take proper inventory of a Grizzlies’ season gone awry, one largely derailed by injuries, chemistry issues and struggles to overcome a different dose of adversity seemingly every week.
What’s left to salvage as the struggling Grizzlies (18-38) enter the All-Star Break and the season’s stretch run are the core values that sustained the franchise through seven consecutive playoff appearances.
