Chris Wallace in the Big Apple

By Chip Crain On November 30, 2012 · 9 Comments · In December 2012

Chris Wallace is one of the nicest GM’s, if that is the proper title for him, in the league. He is open to anyone and everyone and loves nothing more than to share his basketball knowledge and love of the Grizzlies with other fans of the team.

To prove this he has told 3 Shades of Blue that he is going to be in New York City Saturday night and wants to watch the game against the Spurs with fans [...]

Giving Thanks

Today is Thanksgiving. A wonderful day of the year when across America we give thanks to all we have. This year I have had a lot to be thankful for.

Instead I will write about what I am [...]

This is the 4th part of our continuing series at 3 Shades of Blue as we look back on former players that we would like to see in Beale Street Blue once again.

What Does Mayo Leaving Mean?

O.J. Mayo is no longer a Memphis Grizzlies player. That is known.

What is not known is what effect that will have on the Grizzlies going forward.

It is also known that the Grizzlies relinquished their rights to match any offer for Mayo. That means that the team who traded the draft rights to Kevin Love, Mike Miller, Brian Cardinal and Jason Collins for Mayo, Adriana Lima’s husband Marko Jaric and Greg Buckner, have nothing remaining from that trade. Kevin Love is [...]
