Zach Randolph talks suspension

Memphis Grizzlies F Zach Randolph had no one to blame but himself for being suspended for Saturday's game 7 against the Oklahoma City Thunder.  While the Grizzlies were being eliminated from the playoffs, Randolph was confined to a hotel room but he was able to share his thoughts with media members.  

“It hurts,” Randolph said. “I apologized to the guys. I feel like I let them down. I’ve got a lot of emotions going on right now, and rightfully so. When I woke up the next morning (after Game 6), I didn’t have any idea I was going to get suspended. I’m upset about it. I’m still in shock.”

“I want to apologize to my fans and the organization,” Randolph said. “This was totally unexpected. I wasn’t even thinking about that play. Normally, if you do something in a game like get a technical or get into something, you think about it all night. I didn’t think about it. I was just upset about the loss. Not being able to play in Game 7 never crossed my mind.”
