Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Memphis Men's Basketball Looks Impressive, Grizzlies Weekend Recap, And Utah Remains Undefeated
Q: With the Tigers, a 2-0 start. You, in your top 25 and 1, have them at 26, and you made the argument that perhaps no one is having a better start to the season than the Memphis Tigers.
Gary Parrish says Memphis is the only team so far with a win over a team in the AP poll and an additional win over a KenPom top-60 team. He calls the start impressive while noting that the next game is another major test.
Memphis Men's Basketball Looks Impressive, Grizzlies Weekend Recap, And Utah Remains Undefeated
Q: How much does Friday's outcome, or the three-game losing streak in its totality, tarnish the 6-0 start?
Gary Parrish says the losing streak completely tarnishes the excitement, though it does not erase the team's six wins. He says the Grizzlies now face bigger questions about their lineup, rotations and ability to compete.
Grizzlies Lose in OT to Pelicans, Memphis Basketball Beats #18 Iowa State, TV Tuesday (11/3/26)
Q: Just what do you make of what he has been able to give this team early in the year?
Wallace described Ty Jerome as a reliable, three-level NBA scorer who can create points at the rim, in the midrange, and from long range, and said opponents will try to force the ball out of his hands.
Grizzlies Lose in OT to Pelicans, Memphis Basketball Beats #18 Iowa State, TV Tuesday (11/3/26)
Q: The biggest thing to iron out from your perspective is what?
Mike Wallace said the Grizzlies need to reduce turnovers and limit offensive rebounds that lead to second-chance points, while Zach Edey should regain his rhythm over time.
Emirates NBA Cup Excitement, Grizzlies V. Thunder Preview, And Huge CFB Weekend
Q: The number one thing you are looking for tonight in this matchup between the Grizzlies and the Thunder?
Rob Fischer wants Memphis to compete hard, improve its ball handling and half-court offense, and win the possession battle against Oklahoma City.
