  1. 4 games is nowhere enough of a simple size for Rose. Having Luke and Santi ok the floor at the same time will open up the floor. We lost this game in the 3rd when Smart and Ross force 3 stupid shots with Jaren not touching the ball. That can’t happen at all. Also the second team has to get better and under control they have to much freedom. When Jaren playing with them he should touch it every time. To many times players are looking him off.! I had Jaren going for 30 on FanDuel and he hit but he should have had 40. It’s still early and it plenty of time left in the season.

  2. What is the coach thinking they should take a chance on rose on being your quaterback (ball handler)also have marcus and bane play off the ball see how that work i mean u cant get no worser than u already is

  3. If someone had said for the Grizzlies to win they'd need Bane an Jaren to score 30 points each, with smart helping with more than 23 points an they would hit 14 3pointers I would take that every night of the week. Well they did an they still lost. 😡The rest of the team especially the bench you got peanuts. Where's the defence take care of the bloody 🏀. Playing catch up every game hard to watch. Dont even get me started on BrickLavia an Rose just has to play less eratic an just look after the ball an finish better he'll be good. So come on, lets go Grizzs!!

  4. Joe your just speaking the truth an facts man.Cant hate on you for that, someone got to say it. Some wont like it but I do agree with some things your saying, you been on point.

  5. out of the 3 of 4 games D rose showed up..especially denver game…Yeah he struggled this game but its early in season..Thats a fair assessment..

  6. Honestly they gotta get some household bench players and also they gotta send Xavier Tillman back to the g league it’s good but he’s not nba level or at least ready he’s a terrible shooter n also undersized

  7. N also they have to stop running the zone on defense it’s gettin us killed from the 3 we are gettin burnt on defense

  8. The fact that the over cautious grizzlies team, still has kennard out for a routine bloody fucking nose, is absurd! Absolutely absurd!

    This team is cautious to the stupid!

    My guess is Santi tripped and skinned his knee and they’ll keep him out until Christmas just to ensure he doesn’t get Mrsa.

    They absolutely blew it on Adams and I am not so sure Adams didn’t play along. He gets a zero year for 12 million and likely one more on the back end. I just can’t believe that the best doctors in the world dithered like this. I can believe they told the team, “hey the safest play is to just see if it heals. But to get him on the court sooner is likely a surgery and when we are in there we will better understand”

    HAS THE GUY EVEN HAD HIS SURGERY?!?

    That’s another thing. We idiots, that have wasted years making fools out of ourselves going to bat for the front office, don’t deserve the most minimal amount of accuracy? “Hey, kennard is likely going to be out for 4 games because of that bloody nose”.

    At this point I won’t be surprised if Santi is out for the season.

    But the team is nothing but the nba execs bitch. Jenkins and company never say shit to refs when the games all are called with dramatic foul disparities and inequities. But also, jas suspension was ri-fucking-dicoulous!

    He gets 25 games and malik Beasly held a family up with an assault style rifle, smelling like weed, in front of his home. He got multiple felonies and did real time.

    How many games did Beasly get?

    12-TWELVE!!! HE GOT TERLVE GAMES FOR LITERALLY HOLDING UP AN ASIAN COUPLE, THEIR BABY AND GRADE SCHOOL CHILD.

    But ja showing a weapon on IG for such a small amount of time it required special software to see it and de-blur the picture.

    But our dumb front office wanted to be liked by the nba and teach ja a lesson.

    Draymond brutally assaults a teammate, nothing, Kerr made sure he got nothing. What’s worse? Beating the shit of a co worker or showing a gun on IG?

    This backwards sport, nba and team is getting impossible to watch.

    Then they pick up some unemployed center?!?

    My god?!?

    We have good players! Great players! We just have weak owners! We have weak coaches and weak staffs.

  9. I would love to get a high lottery pick and take alexandre Sarr and comeback in 2024 and kick some butt. Our top five big men would be Adams and Sarr at center with Jackson, clarke & Aldama filling out the four and back up spots. We would be dangerous at big, more than a match for any team in the west..

  10. Hey, Mavs fan here. Wanted to ask, does JJJ get such a favourable whistle every game? Until he got the tech he wasn't getting punished for some blatant fouls and then got quite the soft whistle on the other end. I know he's an amazing defender, but is he a DPOY contender without such whistle?
