Chandler Parsons last played for the Grizzlies in late October. He wants to return now, a feeling apparently not shared by Grizzlies' management. Should Parsons play? Is he right to make his plaint public?

Before Monday night in Oakland, Mike Conley had played in every game for the Grizzlies and was averaging his most minutes (34.1) in six years. And still the Grizzlies came into the game with the NBA’s 26th-ranked offense.

The Grizzlies had a busy weekend, with two losses on a home back-to-back. But the on-court disappointments were obscured a bit by some off-court activity.

Memphis Grizzlies general manager Chris Wallace conducted a media availability outside the Grizzlies locker room at FedExForum on Saturday to discuss the reported, then aborted three-team trade between the Grizzlies, Phoenix Suns, and Washington Wizards from the night before.

Friday night at FedExForum, the Grizzlies took a double loss. They fell 100-97 to the visiting Miami Heat and, soon after, lost what they had thought was the addition of a young talent in the form of 23-year-old Washington Wizards forward Kelly Oubre, whom the Grizzlies believed they’d secured in a trade until a bit of now NBA-infamous confusion blew up the deal.

Robert Pera remains committed to keeping the Grizzlies in Memphis and is more active than ever in running the team. That emerged as the theme of The Daily Memphian’s interview with Pera – the product of a longstanding request – during halftime of Friday’s game against the Miami Heat. 

James Harden had 32 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists for his second consecutive triple-double, and the Houston Rockets held off a fourth-quarter burst to beat the Memphis Grizzlies 105-97 on Saturday night.
