May 15, 2000 The new reign of terror....
Well as many of you know the new grizzlies staff has been announced and as many as you know I don't like it at all. Dick Versace is a total moron in my opinion and I think him not being in basketball for like 8 years is a definate red flag. Charles ("Chuck") Daly is to "old" I think to understand today's players but he is only Special Consultant to the President so it doesn't really matter. You know what though I kind of like Billy Knight I think he will do ok and I think he was the only half decent person chosen for the job's availible. Now onto who the new coach will be.... There has been lots of people who have been so-called "intrested" in being the coach of the Grizz including Lenny Wilkens I don't like that even though he is a high profile coach he would want to give it down in the post every possension and won't let the Grizz run. A name that has come up which I am all for is Sacramento Kings assisistant coach Byron Scott (formaer Grizz player) I think being a coach for the Kings tells you he will let Mike B and Mike D run the floor so I definatley hope we get him. Sorry for not updating for a while but keep on posting messages on the message board and I'm still trying to get that interview with Mike Bibby right now.

May 9, 2000  Bye Stu.....
Stu Jackson officially resigned as G.M of the Vancouver Grizzlies taking a head office job with the NBA instead.  Combined with the way Lionel Hollins was fired (over the phone) it doesn't look like Reef will want to stay. Earlier this year he was quoted as saying "If Stu goes I go" and his agent said he wasn't pleased with the way Hollins was fired. Hopefully Reef decides to saty but we grizz fans can only hope. :Mr. Heailey" has a press confrence scheduled tomorrow where he is expected to announce his new coaching staff. Have an a opinion you want to get off you chest?? Why not post it on the message board where other Grizz fans can read it and reply

May 6, 2000  First Round 
Well the first round of the playoff's are now over and I'll just give you my comments on what I saw. Ok I don't like the Raptors that mush but when I saw Larry Johnson bank in that 3 then make the LJ sign it made me sick it is the stupidest thing I have ever seen, it should be outlawed like the cut throat in football. Both the Kings and Sonics worked so hard to get to the 5th and final game, Seatlle lost by a matter of inches (if Vin's foot had been back a little that would have been a 3 and they could have got gary to drive and knock in another 2 for the tie) and the Kings just got blown away in there last game but they did better then anyone expected them to do against the Lake Show. There was no real updates but I think win Jason Kidd back that Suns have a shot at beating the Lakers and I think the Blazers will beat the Jazz. In the East I like the Heat over the Knicks and the 76ers with the upset over the Pacers. I'll update after every round or if there is some more Grizz news I have a couple pics I'll add in a couple days

April 23, 2000  Draft predictions
Sorry  I haven't updated in a while been real busy. Now that the nba playoffs are underway it is time for us cellar dwellers it is time to decide who we are going to pick. Now I know lots of people have different opinions but mine is MARCUS FIZER the man is awesome. SLAM magazine had an article on him here he said when he was 13 and 5"10 that he figured he wouldn't grow much more so he better work on his outside game well his is now a 6"9 PF with SG skills and a huge build. He says he develops his game after Karl Malone not his elbow throwin pick and rollin and rogaine using style but his bashing underneath and just abusing anyone who comes idiot who decides to come into his paint. The are three other questions we need to ask before the draft 1) Is Heisley going to destroy the team before the draft even comes?? 2) What position will we get in the draft? 3) Will Fizer be around when are pick comes? All those questions will can only be answered in time.....

April 12, 2000 Battle of the basement
The Grizz played good, but Hughes played much better. Hughes scored 28pts ti help can the Grizzlies. Dickerson had a great outing with 24pts. The Grizz and Warriors were neck and neck until the fourth quarter where everything fell apart. The Warriors started the final frame with a 14-0 run. warriors sealed the game and came out on top 109-97. Bibby was locked up, despite handing out 9 dimes and dropping 12pts. Reef led the Grizz with 23pts and pulled down 13 boards. Hopefully the Grizz can pick it up in the home stretch, they play the Suns on the 12th. An uphill battle in the valley of the sun.

April 10, 2000 Mike plays great in a loss
Mike lead the way for the Grizz scoring 24 points dishing out 8 assist and only getting 1 turnover which is great. Even though Bibby played good Duncan and the Spurs played better the Grizz did play good UNTIL the 3rd quarter where they fell apart letting the Spurs pull farther and farther ahead with the final score being 107-99 Duncan scored 31 points and grabbed 11 rebounds. Other notable stats were Reef getting 23 points and 11 rebounds  and Michael Dickerson scoring 20 points. This Saturday there will be TONS of stuff added to this page including games, wallpaper and other great new sections so come back then and check them out.

April 7, 2000 Grizz play great again
The Vancouver Grizzlies played one of there best games of the season yesterday beating one of the best teams in the NBA the Portland Trailblazers 89-87. Micheal Dickerson lead the way with 27 points and 4 rebounds Bibby added 15 points and 9 assist and Shareef was solid as usuall getting 19 points  grabbing 9 boards and dishing out 7 assist. It was a great game and Othella Harrington came up with a HUGE block with 30 seconds left and the blazers needing a basket. The Grizz played real tough and showed ALOT of heart hopefully they can continue this for the last little bit of the season. On a side note some of you might have noticed the Mike got injured with like 4 mins left in the game but came back with 2 mins left team doctors said it was nothing major and he will be playing in there next game which is against the same blazers they beat yesterday.

April 5, 2000 WOW WHAT A GAME!
The game was tied at 100 Mike Bibby got the ball with 5 seconds left turned and face Steve Francis, (4 seconds) looks francis in the eye and then GONE with one quick crossover to his right he shakes Francis, (2 seconds) he drives the lane jumps looses the ball a little in the air (1 second), sort of tips the ball off the backboard and in (zero) GRIZZ WIN GRIZZ WIN!! Bibby with the game winning basket at the buzzer to finally get the grizzlies there 20th win of the season. Mike had a great game scoring 27 points and giving out 10 dimes Shareef added 21 points and 14 rebounds but the huge thing is he played every minute of that game. When Bibby was asked about his game winning shot after the game he had this to say "I knew as soon as I got the ball that I wanted to take it to the basket" As of right now the game winning basket highlite it unavalible for me but I should have it in a day or so
I will add some new graphics and sections tommorow so come back 

April 2, 2000 TRIPLE-DOUBLE
Mike Bibby with his first ever triple-double in his career he got 11 rebounds 11 assist and 14 points it was a Jason Kidd like effort by Mike today to bad the rest of his team couldn't do anything. With yet another loss this time to the Dallas Mavericks 100-86 with the only other grizzlie bright spot coming from Shareef who scored a game high 23 points and grabbed 10 rebounds. But the story of the game was Mike Bibby who became only the third grizzlie in history to record a triple-double the one downside was his 6 tournovers but he is young he will learn. The Grizzlies next game we will be hearing alot of boo's as Steve Francis come back to Vancouver on Tuesday




Not the same colour as Bibby wears but those are them. The Jumpman Team Masterpiece
