IMO, the Grizzlies are one of the worst franchises in the NBA, if not all of sports.

For all I hear about the Lions and Islanders, the Griz are just as bad.

I'm going to make a bold prediction- within 3 years, O.J. Mayo will want out of there.

It looks likes SabresRule was on to something.

During today's Spurs-Lakers telecast, Jeff Van Gundy called the Memphis Grizzlies "the worst franchise in all of professional sports"!

I heard him say that too.

I'm sure Wozniak and Sandra won't believe that at all.

Bad news for Milwaukee.

The Bucks have lost Michael Redd for the season with a torn ACL and MCL.

He is coming off the bench. He has not developed as fast as peopled wanted. He also has had this thing with wanting to shoot from 15 ft and beyond and that is NOT his game. He did have a good west coast swing where he averaged 19-9 per night....I would take that from a rookie PF that is ONLY 19 yrs old ANY DAY of the week.

The Clippers have to be the worst run NBA franchise. These guys draft in the lottery every year, and almost never reach the playoffs. They have probably drafted in the top ten more than any other franchise in the league, yet they are nowhere. Very Lion's like, indeed.

I agree. The Grizz haven't been around long enough to earn that title yet. The Clippers on the other hand have defied history and have made lousy move after lousy move every single year of their existence.

I would want somebody drafted that high, playing on a team as woeful as last season's Heat, to be starting. So let me refine the question. Why can't he break the starting lineup? I don't see the Heat play, so I don't know. You're my Heat expert, give me the inside dope.
