2014-15
Key Stats:
- Memphis scored the second fewest 3-point field goals on average per game (5.2)
- Like Utah the Grizzlies are one of the slower paced teams (26th) which seems to be a trend of the better defensive teams unless you are one of the 2 anomaly’s: Golden State and Houston
- Tied for 24th fewest offensive rebounds which is odd given they don’t park themselves outside the perimeter
- Only 17.
