New Coach, Same Ol' Griz 

by John Branston

The Grizzlies teased new interim coach Johnnie Davis with an early spurt of competence but soon reverted to their losing ways, falling to the New York Knicks, 108-88.

Mike Conley was hot in the first quarter, leading the Griz to a 30-27 advantage. But then things got ugly, as the Griz managed to score only 32 total points in the second and third quarters.
