Vancouver Grizzlies
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Vancouver Grizzlies were a team in the National Basketball Association (NBA) in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The team started playing in 1995 and became defunct after moving to Memphis, Tennessee in 2001 becoming the Memphis Grizzlies. The Grizzlies were originally going to be called the Vancouver Mounties but were forced to change their name because the RCMP objected it. The Grizzlies played their home games at the General Motors Place (Now Rogers Arena).
