Birdman changed his name to ‘Grizzzilla’ and says he weighs ‘300 pounds wide’ now

Chris Andersen has always been a bit of a, let's say, character. That has not changed.

After being traded from the Miami Heat to the Memphis Grizzlies, the big man apparently decided a name change to "Grizzzilla" (proper spelling) was in order, too. I guess it works. Sort of.

Also of note, the new nickname has apparently caused him to grow to 14 feet tall and 300 pounds wide, whatever that might mean.
