The Memphis Grizzlies fired coach Mike Fratello on Thursday after an NBA-worst 6-24 start. The Grizzlies' winningest coach, Fratello had a 95-83 record and had guided Memphis to consecutive playoff appearances.

Its really not Fratello's fault that their best player is injured. The Grizzlies have a nice young team and it looks like they might be in the running for Greg Oden if he decides to come out of school early.

I have no idea what happened that made the Grizzles this bad but damn. I know Pau got injured, but Hakim was playing well still. Just wow, I really don't know how they went from a playoff team to one of th worst teams of the NBA.

They looked good in the past but they just seem to never found a way to push their team to the next level.

They look like they're in a rebuilding phase not to. Oh well, Greg Oden here they come.
