    Well the hollins firing was the last straw for me. It is clear that Pera and Co. don't care about the fans of the team. So, I am officially a free agent.

    The contenders:

    Toronto Raptors. Reason: The raptors have Rudy Gay, a remnant of the old grizzlies, and a player who I still like to watch play and succeed.

    Indiana Pacers. They are a mirror image of the old grizzlies style of basketball and they also have one of my favorite players on the team: Psycho T!

    San Antonio Spurs. I respect the spurs organization so much that they never gave up on their core players.

    Minnesota Twolves. I am a huge Kevin Love fan, and I also like Ricky Rubio. I also like the fact that the Twolves are up and coming.

    Charlotte Bobcats. I think following the Bobcats would be cool because I could watch a team develop into a contender and I would be able to get invested in the players before they got good.

    I can't think of another team that suits you more than Raptors.

    Best wishes.

    Hansbrough is likely out this summer anyway.

    Btw, what's "old Grizzlies style of basketball"? Pau Gasol period?

    apparently you didn't get the memo, pera has major philosophical differences with the way hollins was running this team. I give it a minutes before they grizzlies turn into SSOL.

    Oh god. Anyone but the rockets. You deserve to be rooting for the Pelicans or Kings.

    You believe in something other than loyalty. I recommend the Lakers or the Heat.

    Sounds like 'what' is a true fan. The Bobcats could use some of those. Try them

    you fail to see the fact that this front office has shown absolutely no loyalty to the team, coaches, or fans.

    I can't want to Gasol, Love and Rubio team up, add Psycho T. That will be 'what" nirvana.

    A true fan never gives up on his team. Never, not even when all seems lost.

    If you're looking to avoid the whole feeling of disappointment due to bad management you will not go wrong with SA. They do everything right. Every thing. I heard they even cook the perfect hard-boiled egg.
