Memphis Grizzlies Rivalries
They say don’t poke the bear, but plenty of NBA teams have done just that. That’s why the Grizzlies have found themselves embroiled in no small number of rivalries around the league over the years. Here are a few of the most prominent:
Memphis Grizzlies vs. San Antonio Spurs
The rivalry between the Grizzlies and Spurs dates back to the early 2000s, with several notable playoff matchups. One of the most memorable series came in 2011 when the eighth-seeded Grizzlies upset the top-seeded Spurs in the first round of the playoffs.
