When Lionel Hollins daydreams about how the retooled Grizzlies will function on offense, he closes his eyes and sees a basketball purist's delight.

 

The Grizzlies' head coach pictures the ball shifting from hand to hand, mimicking a pinball machine with strong offensive threats O.J. Mayo, Rudy Gay, Zach Randolph and Allen Iverson serving as the flippers.

 

It doesn't matter who ultimately scores, as long as the attempt was made easy by sharing.

 

When Hollins opens his eyes Wednesday for the Grizzlies' regular-season opener in FedExForum, he'll see a Memphis Grizzlies team that critics give little chance of functioning as an effective offensive machine
