Memphis strong inside, invisible on perimeter
Zach Randolph - F/C - Memphis Grizzlies
May 1, 2011 - 12:10 PM ET

Memphis was last in the NBA in points scored off 3-pointers this season, at 11.3 points per game.

The Grizzlies' bruising frontcourt powered them to the league lead in points in the paint (a whopping 50.8 per game) and deflects much of the attention from their lackluster perimeter game. Nobody on the Memphis roster shoots 40% from downtown and this could become an issue as teams collapse on Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol.
