As you're certainly well aware of already, last night the NBA released its 2012-13 schedule in a primetime NBA TV joint. Well, Griffin went through and gave you the Grizzlies nuggets and his initial thoughts last night, noting that we play 15 nationally-televised games. Not bad.

Here is a look at the entire Grizzlies schedule, which starts on October 31 in Los Angeles against the Clippers. REVENGE!

After the jump, let's take a look at everything and anything you need to know about the 2012-13 season, shall we?

Memphis Grizzlies open season Oct. 31 at Clippers " The Commercial Appeal:

Perhaps one of the Grizzlies' more interesting home games could happen Dec. 21 when guard O.J. Mayo returns to Memphis with the Dallas Mavericks. The game will be Mayo's first appearance in FedExForum since he signed a two-year, free-agent contract with the Mavs.
