The Grizzlies are getting back to their winning ways. Their 111-99 victory over Houston last night is Memphis’ third win in a row and takes them to 38-23. Memphis remains second in the West, 5 games behind Denver and 2 games ahead of Sacramento. Next up: at conference leader Denver, 9 PM Friday, nationally televised on ESPN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
