    The Memphis Grizzlies have fire head coach Dave Joerger. New Blazers assistant coach?

    Sounds like Sactown or Houston are interested.

    He wanted out of his contract so he could be a head coach elsewhere. He doesn't care about being on a good team. He wants the most money. SAC will give it to him.

    Second time in three years he has asked permission to interview for other HC jobs. I'd fire him too even thouhg I think he is a good coach.

    Before you posted that, I had already checked. You have to reserve tickets online with your e-mail address. So I'd get ads from Republicans forever after, years from now.

    Plus, I've been to those grandstands many times (e.g. Johnny Cash, Paul Revere & the Raiders) and it will be a parking nightmare.

    1. Like it's hard to set up a new email account on yahoo or gmail.

    2. What's a little parking difficulties when you get to see our future emperor.

    3. After meeting you I'm sure he would consider you for Ambassador to someplace like Syria or North Korea.

    As his presidential advisor, I would talk his ear off. He would find out what torture is.

    Gasol just signed a 5 year max in MEM too, right?

    They might be headed for rough waters.

    Can you blame him? That roster outside of Conley and Gasol is a bunch of knuckleheads. Trading Green for Stephenson? WTF?

    The Grizzlies are like a farm squad for the LA teams. The Grizzlies develop great players then ship them off for pennies on the dollar.

    Sounds like Joerger and management have not gotten a long for a while. Didn't Hollins butt heads with them too?
    Looks like a pattern. It will be very interesting to see who they bring in and what kind of philosophy he will have.
