Summary
Zach Randolph and Tony Allen, the heart of the Grit & Grind Grizzlies, pull up to All The Smoke and go deep with Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson. The two Memphis legends and Out The Mud hosts get into how they got into the podcast space, the brotherhood that built one of the toughest teams in NBA history, and the stories most fans have never heard.
TA tells how a Kobe Bryant text almost made him a Laker, what he learned about being a pro from James Posey and KG in Boston, and the dead-ball dunk that tore his ACL. Z-Bo and TA relive the Lob City vs Grit & Grind wars, the hard fouls, and beating the Tim Duncan Spurs. We got into Ja Morant, LeBron's Memphis comments, and much more.
