It was March of 2007. The Grizzlies were…well, awful. In the running for worst record in the NBA kinda awful, in fact. So, naturally, their focus shifted to the draft lottery. At the same time, an enterprising young(ish) man with lots of opinions and too much free time saw a void in the coverage of his favorite NBA team and started a blog called 3 Shades of Blue.

Jerryd Bayless: Best Free Agent Signing?

By Red Coleman On July 16, 2012 · 9 Comments · In July 2012

The morning after news broke about the Memphis Grizzlies agreeing to terms with former Toronto Raptors’ guard Jerryd Bayless, Chip and I were discussing what a quality move it was. Then Chip asked an excellent question: “Is Bayless the best free agent signing the Grizzlies have ever made?”

Who: Memphis Grizzlies
at Los Angeles Clippers
When: May 5, 2012 – 3:30 PM (CST)
Where: Staples Center, Los Angeles, CA
Series: Tied 1-1

Memphis redeemed themselves after their epic collapse in Game 1. In a surprise move, the Grizzlies did not shy away from what happened in the previous game. Instead, they put it up on the jumbotron for all to see: Last few seconds of a one-point game….Rudy takes the shot….and misses. [...]
