The Grizzlie Truth (2022)
Great documentary, but where's Brian Winters?
Despite this documentary being from the perspective of a mega-superfan, it was very informative and well worth watching. I particularly liked the airing of the many perspectives (from Stu Jackson, Steve Francis, Michael Heisley, etc) that provide one with a fuller picture of what happened. My one disappointment was the conspicuous absence of anything about the head coach, Brian Winters. Surely his role, including his strengths as well as his weaknesses, needed to be included in this story. Nevertheless, when coupled with the director's first documentary on the Grizzlies, Finding Big Country, which incidentally I liked even better than this one, The Grizzlie Truth (cute title, by the way) helped salve a festering wound I've had ever since the Vancouver abandonment.
