Is 2013 the Grizzlies’ Year? — Sports Survey of the Year
The Memphis Grizzlies have been on the cusp of being a real title contender in the NBA for a few years now, but is 2013 their time?
Heading into the NBA playoffs, it would have been easy to say that the Miami Heat and Oklahoma City Thunder would meet up in the NBA Finals. While that may still be true for Miami, Oklahoma City now faces elimination.
The Memphis Grizzlies have taken a surprising 3-1 lead over the Thunder in their second-round playoff series. The Grizzlies are playing very well as a team, but the Thunder seem to really be missing their injured star point guard, Russell Westbrook. Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol are putting up huge numbers and dominating on the glass.
