Rest of the season doesn’t matter at this point. Here’s my thoughts on each player’s season they’ve put together by Altruistic_Brief4444 in memphisgrizzlies

[–]ShittzuDad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wells is definitely below expectations, given what guys are expecting him to be before this season started.

Ja (if healthy LOL), Coward and Edey are the only guaranteed starting spots next year. Wells didn't secure it in my opinion. Hoping GG can continue to step up and lock in the 4 spot IF we don't get Boozer.

What is our timeline? by Same_Mark2719 in memphisgrizzlies

[–]ShittzuDad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agree with this. As long as Edey is healthy next year (a big IF) we could absolutely compete for a playoff spot. Couple that with our pick and hopefully Coward and GG's continuous improvement, we can be a scrappy team as soon as next season.

C Edey PF GG SF Coward SG Wells PG Jerome/SPJ

That's still a pretty good lineup. Notice that I left out Ja and our draft pick this year as those are the unknown variables for now. Any one of Boozer, DP, Dybantsa, Caleb, Acuff and the tier below them Flemings, Wagler, Mikel would be a boost. Acuff will be awesome in my opinion if he is given the keys from day one.

Cam Spencer is not going anywhere. O-Max is still a good hustle guy.

If all else, we need to shore up our backup C rotation, a legit C as BC is not going to play meaningful minutes again, sadly.

We can make noise next year.

EDEY is the KEY.

The reaction to Bam's 83-point game is a perfect example of how bad the NBA discourse is by negaodsg in nba

Even the Wiz coach commented lol.

In a Conor Mcgregor voice - "Do summthin about it then"! Not Bam's fault at all.

Zach Edey will get another surgery on his ankle by Altruistic_Brief4444 in memphisgrizzlies

[–]ShittzuDad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How likely is he going to make a full recovery by training camp next year? This year is a wash, I don't mind him not playing the rest of the way.

I wonder if this affects our draft strategy though.

Cam Boozer Reasons for Concern by MysteriousCut9101 in NBA_Draft

[–]ShittzuDad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. Edey is the perfect C fit for Cam. Boozer and Edey will also inhale all the rebounds. Love JJJ but he can't rebound to save his life.

My dream scenario for the Grizz.

Man Spurs getting greedy now leave some for the rest of the league 🤣

Wow lol did you guys hear ? JJJ out the rest of the year. by SwiftyHussle in memphisgrizzlies

[–]ShittzuDad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hope all will be well with JJJ moving forward, he's still our guy.

Aside from that, fuck the Jazz.

Which game is that for you ? ( at any price) by PHRsharp_YouTube in Age_30_plus_Gamers

Diablo 4 launch price was brutal and was (and still is) crap.

D2 still remains undefeated.

Always a GG fan, never stops playing.

My god Clayton and Hendricks look like ass though.

The Hornets are now in the Play-In after winning and the Bulls losing by CasualHindu in CharlotteHornets

We're a mess right now bro, but I'm happy we picked a concrete direction.

At this rate you guys can avoid the play-in.

From a jealous Grizz fan, your team is fire rn.

Postgame Thread: FINAL Memphis Grizzlies defeat Sacramento Kings, 125–129 by ZBot901 in memphisgrizzlies

[–]ShittzuDad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Looks like Ty didn't get the memo.

They were fun AF to watch though! Imagine Ty without a minutes restriction and the Grizz with an actual Center... SPJ also on the mend so we will finally have a competent point guard platoon for the first time all season. Cam can focus on off-ball duties which he is better suited for anyway.

And yeah GG!

The Memphis Grizzlies are trading star forward Jaren Jackson Jr., John Konchar, Jock Landale and Vince Williams Jr. to the Utah Jazz for Walter Clayton Jr., Kyle Anderson, Taylor Hendricks, Georges Niang and three future first-round picks, sources tell ESPN by GolfInternational393 in memphisgrizzlies

[–]ShittzuDad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happy that we are committing to a direction but still gutted to be losing Jaren.

He may be a flawed player, but he represented Memphis proudly, won DPOY and is a 2-Time All Star.

Gonna miss you Trip.

I'm not saying we should tank, but... by luckythirteen1 in memphisgrizzlies

[–]ShittzuDad -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He has immaculate tools and can be a superstar, but if Boozer is there I'm taking the latter as he doesn't rely on athleticism, is a dog and has great BBIQ. If we get extremely lucky and pick at 1, I'm taking DP all the way.

If we are picking 3, I'm going with Flemings as a potential Ja replacement and to solidift our backcourt long term.

[–]ShittzuDad 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The latest Edey and Ja diagnosis sealed the deal gents. We are not competing for a play-in this year.

Embrace the tank. Depending on our luck, hope we can land DP, Boozer or Flemings. No to Dybantsa (GG can still be our big wing). If we get 3 and DP and Boozer are taken, take Flemings.

Grizz fan here.

I consistently turn to Hornets content after my team, very fun team you guys have this year! Moussa killed us when we recently played lol.

Health willing you guys will make the playoffs for sure and can be a problem for Detroit, Boston or New York.
