Well I don't play a lot offline, have only played 2 offline games, and don't play games online, but can tell u how I play the CPU grizzlies. I agree there are a tough team though.
I try to lock down the paint (literally, the option) except for Rudy Gay.. The grizzlies don't have many shooters, they prefer to drive. There is really only Gay, Mayo, Conley, and S.Battier. The last 2 have low shot tendencies so you should prioritize on Mayo and Gay.

I'd put Noah on Zach and Boozer on Gasol. I know it's height mismatch, but either way your stuck with a paint mismatch because Boozer can't guard anyone. U might want to consider starting one of the other 2 bigs who play better D.
THen put Rose on Conley and Brewer on Gay. Bogan or Brewer can guard Mayo.

But that is just my advice.
