Lionel Hollins exited the Grizzlies’ huddle after a timeout early in the fourth quarter wearing a scowl and wiping his brow.

 

Unsettling was a 22-point deficit and the Grizzlies hadn’t even scored a point two minutes into the final frame.

 

The Grizzlies coach appeared anxious before the game Wednesday night and then spent most of his team’s 96-74 loss to the Detroit Pistons agitated and disappointed.

 

Rough start?

 

Memphis did few things right in the regular-season opener for both teams before an announced crowd of 17,212 in FedExForum.

 

“We just came out and laid an egg,” Hollins said after a game in which the Griz trailed by as many as 25 points before losing their ninth straight season opener since moving to Memphis.
