(AP) — The Grizzlies are very happy after finally getting a bit of payback for their first-round loss to the Los Angeles Clippers a year ago. They also made a bit of NBA history. Memphis became only the 10th team in NBA history to win four straight after trailing 0-2 — and the first to win the next four all by double digits. The Grizzlies w...

(AP) — When Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph click together, the Memphis Grizzlies are very, very tough to beat. Gasol and Randolph had 24 points apiece and led a strong rebounding effort by the Grizzlies in a 104-83 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers on Saturday that evened their first-round playoff series at 2-all.
