Grizzlies better equipped to handle Gay's absence
While the rest of the league was giving the Grizzlies a sympathetic
tut-tut on the news—announced on Tuesday—that second-leading scorer
Rudy Gay would be out for the rest of the season, coach Lionel Hollins
and Gay's teammates gave it a collective shrug of the shoulders.
"The truth is," Hollins told Sporting News on Wednesday, "we've known
Rudy was going to be out. I told the players long before it came out
publicly that he wasn't coming back. I knew he wasn't coming back when
it happened. So it might be news for everybody else, but for us, we
have been used to this news for a long time now."
Gay injured his shoulder on Feb. 15 against the Sixers, when he got
tangled up with rookie Evan Turner on a post-up play and fell to the
ground immediately, in pain. He had separated the shoulder, but while
he said publicly that he could come back in April, the shoulder wasn't
healing with rest and it became clear he would require surgery. That
meant 19.8 points and 6.2 rebounds disappeared from the Memphis
lineup.
A year ago, that type of news would have devastated the Grizzlies—
they were young and the roster was thin, and after an impressive 24-11
surge in midseason, last year's Grizzlies simply ran out of steam in
the stretch run and finished on a 2-9 skid.
This year, though, Gay's injury shows the progress that the team has
made under Hollins and the job the front office has done to fill out
the roster. With Wednesday's 90-87 win here over the Celtics, the
Grizzlies are now 9-6 since Gay's injury and have kept their hold on
the West's last playoff spot.
"You're absolutely right," Zach Randolph said when the notion was
floated that last year's Grizzlies would not be able to handle the
loss of Gay. "We ran out of gas last year. We didn't have the depth
and we were too young. But I think the way we played so far without
Rudy, it has shown a lot, it has shown what we are made of. We're a
young team but we're good, too, and you can't just keep using the fact
that you're young as an excuse. You have to start winning over 82
games."
A good example of that newfound depth is forward Tony Allen, who was
signed away from the Celtics in a surprise move last summer. Allen has
been a valuable swingman for Memphis, and averaged 13.4 points (on
53.5 percent shooting) in the first 14 games without Gay. And an
example of that newfound maturity can be seen in fourth-year point
guard Mike Conley, who has been as consistent as he has been in his
career over the course of this year, especially without Gay.
"We have held up pretty well," Conley said. "We have tried to look at
it as, Rudy is not here, but other guys can now have a chance to show
what they can do. We want to have Rudy here for this, but that kind of
opportunity can be big for a lot of players, and a lot of guys have
stepped up."
In fact, Hollins said he has used the play of the rest of the team to
teach Gay a lesson in the fleeting nature of stardom and the
replace-ability of all players, even stars.
"I told Rudy, 'This is a good lesson for you to put everything in
perspective," Hollins said. "'No matter how good you are, the show
goes on and there will be someone coming into your place and do your
job. They might not be as good as you, but they're going to do the
job, coaches are going to have confidence in them, fans are going to
cheer for you the same way that they do for you.' Keep it all in
perspective. There's a lesson there."
For the young Grizzlies, there have been lessons all over this season—
and Gay's injury has brought the team's growth into focus.

曼菲斯灰熊队前锋Rudy Gay在2月15日与费城76人队的比赛中撞伤了左肩,而在3
月21日灰熊宣布他将接受左肩手术,赛季报销。不过灰熊主教练Lionel Hollins
表示Gay因伤赛季报销这件事在灰熊内部并不是什麽新闻。
「事实上我们早就知道Gay会报销,在公布这条消息很久之前我就告诉队员们他不
会回来了,对别人来说这是新闻,而我们自己早就知道了。」
灰熊前锋Zach Randolph表示即使没有Gay,球队今年也会全力争取胜利,「去年
我们最後确实有点燃料耗尽的意思,我们阵容深度不够而且太年轻。今年我们依
然年轻但是我们也很强,不能总拿年轻当输球的借口,必须要全力争胜。」
在当地时间周三90-87击败赛尔提克後,灰熊队在缺少Gay的情况下取得了9胜6负
,排名也一直稳居在西区第八。
