Grizzly Bear Blues, a Memphis Grizzlies community

Columnist Chris Wilson chimes in with his take on the 2010 NBA Free Agency period, which is only slightly Grizzlies biased.

Weekly columnist Chris Wilson runs down Memphis Grizzlies owner Michael Heisley's top 5 worst decisions of the last year.

The Memphis Grizzlies did not offer restricted free agent Ronnie Brewer his qualifying offer, so Brewer was able to freely sign with the Chicago Bulls. Brewer played only a handful of games for the Grizzlies, even though they gave a first round pick to acquire him.

In his first weekly editorial, Chris Wilson argues that the Grizzlies need to take some risks, like locking Marc Gasol into a long-term deal.

The Memphis Grizzlies have been slammed for signing Rudy Gay so early in free agency and for such a high price, but they had no choice with a toxic signing bonus awaiting Gay and the future of the franchise on the line.

The Memphis Grizzlies have signed young forward Rudy Gay to a 5 year, $81.6 million maximum contract extension.

Today local radioman Chris Vernon talked to GM Chris Wallace and found out that the Grizzlies will not even submit a qualifying offer to Brewer. So Ronnie Brewer will become an unrestricted free agent tonight at midnight, and the Utah Jazz will keep the Grizzlies's future first round pick after Brewer played just five games for the Grizz.

In a move that surprised absolutely no one, the Memphis Grizzlies have sent Rudy Gay his qualifying offer, which means the young forward a will become a restricted free agent starting tomorrow, July 1st.
