March 1, 200521 yr Why are they playing an afternoon game in the middle of the week? I've never seen anything like this in the regular season.
March 1, 200521 yr Author INSIDE THE GRIZZLIES The team is hosting a rare afternoon (1 p.m.) game as part of a promotion to encourage downtown businessmen to "have lunch with the Grizzlies," according to team officials. The game also completes a Read to Achieve Celebration, which begins at 10 a.m. Children from select schools will attend, and several will perform game-day tasks such as announcing players during the pregame introductions. As for the Grizzlies' on-court business, they are still riding high and hobbling since Saturday's victory at San Antonio. Jason Williams is bothered by sore feet and Brian Cardinal has a mildly sprained ankle. Neither practiced Monday but coach Mike Fratello is hopeful that both will play against the Warriors.
