- Zach Randolph gets a Brazilian (opponent) in October.
This afternoon, the Grizzlies announced the schedule for the 2014 preseason, and it’s pretty interesting: it starts with a road back to back (which makes me tired just thinking about it, a sure sign that I’m still recovering from last season). There’s a home game against the Brazilian club Flamengo. Most noteworthy are probably the last two, against the newly-LeBron’d Cavs and the newly-LeBronless Heat.
- Wednesday, 10/8: at Milwaukee, 7pm
- Thursday, 10/9: at Houston, 7pm
- Saturday, 10/11: vs. Atlanta, 7pm
- Tuesday, 10/14: at OKC, 7pm
- Friday, 10/17: vs Flamengo (Brazil), 7pm
- Monday, 10/20: at Dallas, 7:30pm
- Wednesday, 10/22: vs. Cleveland, 7pm
- Friday, 10/24: vs. Miami, 7pm
Preseason basketball is always exciting: guys who will never make the team getting solid minutes, superstars playing at 60% speed, random international squads getting seal-clubbed by NBA third-stringers… I love it. (That’s not sarcasm.) Get ready, folks.
