Day-to-Day NBA Podcast: Grizzlies are survivors

The Step Back Day-to-Day NBA Podcast

We discuss the unlikely birth of the Grit and Grind era and how the Memphis Grizzlies keep outperforming expectations and bucking trends on the latest episode of The Step Back's Day-to-Day NBA Podcast, hosted by Jason Mann. We are joined by Keith Parish of the Fastbreak Breakfast NBA podcast to look how Memphis has managed to stay competitive despite lacking a top-tier superstar, how they are among a rare set of teams who have been this consistently good but not made the NBA Finals, how the Grizzlies core (Mike Conley, Marc Gasol, Zach Randolph and Tony Allen) almost came together by accident, how the franchise has dealt with ownership and executive dysfunction, and how with a hopefully healthy Chandler Parsons the team has possibly its best shot to make it deep into the playoffs.
