Grizzlies preseason opener preview: October 8th versus Bucks
by Xan Nikchevich 4h ago
The NBA preseason has arrived in Memphis
The Grizzlies’ first preseason game is rapidly approaching, as we will be able to see them play against the Bucks on Wednesday. It feels like a long time since any NBA action has taken place, but the time has finally come.
Some people might not consider preseason basketball the most exciting time of the year, but it gives us an opportunity to look at some younger players. We can also get a feel for how the team will gel as a unit and whether or not chemistry will be strong going into the year. You can expect that to be the case, as most of the team’s veterans have stayed in Memphis.
Players to especially watch will be rookies Jordan Adams and Jarnell Stokes. I think we will get to see that Stokes is an NBA ready backup–in limited minutes–and he should shine throughout the preseason. Adams will hopefully stand out as well. He has dropped weight, which was one of the Grizzlies’ bigger concerns going into the season. If he can get his stroke going, then he might be able to work his way into the rotation.
The opponent, being the Bucks, are a team in rebuilding mode, and most of their players are younger. Getting to see how they play isn’t necessarily beneficial for the Grizzlies, since Milwaukee is in the Eastern Conference. It is however a good first preseason game, as the Bucks aren’t overloaded with talent. Although, Jabari Parker and Giannis Antetokounmpo should be fun to watch since they both have a lot of potential.
Even though this is the preseason, it is our first chance to see the Grizzlies in a real game setting. You can expect to see strong team play, as well as the trademark defense that has become a staple in Memphis.
It’s time Memphis fans. The NBA is back, and your Grizzlies are back in action.

If Conley is consistent, then they will be unstoppable

conley is always consistent. It's time to put a limit on TA and zach's minutes and actually develop a bench.

The Titans disgust me
I just want a QB that can hit a receiver in stride, is that too much to ask for?

nikkas only made it out the first round once since ive been a fan
only made the playoffs three times since ive been a fan
if they re-sign jake locker this offseason
Zbo and TA gotta take Beasley under their wings. Its gonna be a culture shock coming from the Miami Heat lifestyle, but I think flying under the radar in a small town may be good for Beasley. He will get love everywhere he goes, and his choice of ratchet chicks. If he and Earl Clark can get motivated we are going to be a very deep team.
