Props to Memphis, then. Didn't know that.
Hopefully SA can get through this round and meet them in the WCF.

And there's nothing like the Grizzlies Grandmas and Grandpas breaking it down on the court.

Are there a lot of grizzlies around Memphis?

"Marc's from Memphis man," Grizzlies forward Zach Randolph said. "Marc's tough. Marc played [high school and AAU ball] with all the guys from the ghetto, from south Memphis to north Memphis. And now he's been around me."
That balloon guy after the first quarter was one of the weirdest things I've ever seen.

Are you talking about the actual animal? If so, we have 3 at the zoo.

Ya but tigers is more of a generic sports name. You should change the name to something fierce like the hornets did.

When they first moved here, they wanted to change the name to the Express, but the NBA wouldn't allow a team name to be a sponsor's name so we just kept the Vancouver name.

I'm glad we kept the name but changed those god awful colors.
Posted on 5/14/13 at 8:56 am to Slippery Slope
I'be actually wondered about that for while. Memphis Express would be a great name.

If you say anything Elvis I think every Memphis native will kick your arse.

What is your sponsor? I've never heard of a company called express? Some type of delivery service?

Didn't we have some kind of team named that or something similar?
Posted on 5/14/13 at 9:03 am to UMTigerRebel
We did. It was a D league team. They disbanded, brought them back, and disbanded again.

That would have been my guess. I havent taken my NBA sponsor quiz yet this year, sorry.
And as far as names go I think something like wolf, for the river would be good or something with music in general if done right (Iike the jazz when they were in new Orleans). Something to do with the Egyptian city it was named after would be good too (my grandparents are from Memphis so I know a little bit about the area). Of you course you could always just go with the gorillas. And don't get mad it was just a joke.
