Grizzlies Give Barone Win in Debut

Memphis Grizzlies interim coach Tony Barone Sr. calls to his team during the fourth quarter of an NBA basketball game Saturday, Dec. 30, 2006, in Memphis, Tenn. The Grizzlies beat the Toronto Raptors 110-104. (AP Photo/Nikki Boertman)MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) - A change in coaches meant a change in style — and results — for the Memphis Grizzlies.

"It's a great win for these guys," Barone said of the Grizzlies, who snapped a five-game losing streak. "It's a weight off their shoulders. I'm dead tired. I'm done. I've told (Jerry West, president of basketball operations) I'm done. That was enough."
