The Memphis Grizzlies have all the time exuded excessive black Air Pressure vitality. It’s one factor for his or her trash speak to agitate LeBron.

Eventually Sharpe was allowed to return to his seat and he hugged it out with Tee hugged it out and let bygones be bygones.
Trash talking is Memphis’ brand, but this was a bizarre look for a primetime game. Shannon Sharpe knew the cameras were on though and put on a show, but nearly put too much dip on his chip. Instead of sitting down to enjoy the courtside seats, he thought he was a part of the game.
The fans at Staples didn’t come to watch him play. I’m sure he’ll use this as more fodder to get ratings up on Monday’s show.
