The Grizzlies gave Nets first-year head coach Lionel Hollins a moving video tribute Tuesday night in honor of his long-time service with the franchise, both in Vancouver and Memphis.
“It was great,” Hollins said of the pre-game display of affection from the 16,901 fans stuffed into the FedExForum, not to mention his former players.
“I enjoyed it, from a standpoint that the respect that they showed and admiration for the work that I’ve done here,” Hollins added. “But it was about trying to win a game.”
