OKLAHOMA CITY – Grizzlies’ coach David Fizdale says he maintains an open dialogue with Zach Randolph to discuss any challenges the veteran power forward has in coping with a full-time role off the bench for the first time since his initial NBA seasons. “I try to be open with him, totally open with him,” Fizdale said of his communication with Randolph. “But I don’t feel like I need to hold his hand through this process.” Fizdale’s comments came as the Grizzlies (24-16) prepared for Wednesday’s nationally televised game against at Oklahoma City, and also with Randolph coming off his best two-game stretch of the season.
