Two blowout games back-to-back to begin the Memphis Grizzlies‘ season? Talk about a totally different swing of things.
That was the case in FedEx Forum on Friday night, where the Grizzlies debuted their shiny, new home floor for the 2018-19 season. Memphis took advantage of the Atlanta Hawks‘ lack of experience and identity, especially on the defensive end.
Memphis came into this game fresh off of being taken to the cleaners by the Indiana Pacers. With fans rightfully beginning to scratch their heads in confusion, the Grizzlies knew they had to come out on Friday and make a statement to the home crowd.
