Memphis Grizzlies

PREDICTED FINISH: 8th   45-37
ACTUAL FINISH       : 12th   43-39

What I got right: I had the Grizzlies in the playoffs,  boasting a dangerous lineup, and landing some solid new faces.  Two out of three ain’t bad, right?  The Memphis Grizzlies do not score many points, but like the Utah Jazz, they have more than enough defense to compensate.

What I got wrong: I anticipated the new players of Parsons, Baldwin IV, and Ennis to have bigger roles in the upside of the team.  I also missed on the  team’s improvement from three point range. But with all that said, I missed the final record by two games.
