The 2018-19 NBA schedule has been released, plus additional signs hint at a long offseason coming to a close for the Memphis Grizzlies.

The Memphis Grizzlies have not appeared in a regular season game since April 11th. The last time they were victorious? April 8th.

Though the 2017-18 season was unbearable at times with strings of losses running abundant, things are going to get better for Grizz Nation. Much better. In what could be perceived as tanking, Memphis now has a healthy roster in addition to two highly-talented rookies.

The Grizzlies are sure to snag more wins in 2018-19, but the Western Conference has become greater in strength. This seems to be the rhetoric each September within the NBA. The Western Conference continues to get more and more wild.

Regardless of the opposition, the Memphis Grizzlies can only control what they control. They made a point to improve their roster this offseason, which they absolutely did. They spent dollars in order to upgrade. Before that, they made smart decisions at the NBA Draft. The Grizzlies even brought in a bit of veteran flavor to even out their young supporting cast.

If nothing else, Grizz Nation should be excited about the product the Front Office will place on the floor in the upcoming season. It should be much more thrilling than the snooze-fest of 2017-18. The long offseason — not nearly as quiet as in seasons’ pasts — is coming to a close. Here are several reasons that point toward the opening of a new year of Grizz basketball.
