How to get Marcus Smart and the Memphis Grizzlies better



Sure, it’s nice the Grizzlies are no longer winless in the NBA. But Memphis should expect more than a 1-6 record…and there is work to be done before the schedule toughens up. From Marcus Smart to the rotation and everything in between, no stone should be unturned when getting the Grizzlies right. Hosts Joe Mullinax and Damichael Cole work through the options on this episode of Locked On Grizzlies!

    Dang. Y’all just disrespect Ziaire Williams every podcast. He’s averaging a career high in ppg, rbg, and efficiency. You said that we need more rebounding and he’s averaging almost 7rpg. He’s shooting almost 37% from 3. Not only that but he’s playing good defense as well. He’s learning how to use his height. I do want him to get more shots up tho in that mid range area especially.

    Y’all are going to learn your going to love Smart but hate that he tends to force shots sometimes he shouldn’t be taking….. other than that Smarts the kinda guy you want in your team

    Zaire numbers are not bad?

    44.6 fg%, 36.7% 3point%, 90.9% free throw%, 6.7 rebounds per game, 10.1 points per game

    That -25 is terrible, but can we always attribute that to a single player?

    I think the -25 is not representative of Zaire’s play.

    If the season ended today, he’d have his best numbers.

    Des is getting too much credit. He is also a big part of the reason we are losing and it’s really noticeable if you actually pay attention. People are looking at the 47% shooting and say it’s good but it’s really misleading. He’s taking 21 shoots a game compared to Jaren 15. But Des only get to the line 3.5 time compared to Jaren 6 times. Saying smart taking shots with 18 second left but not saying anything about Des taking shots with 21 seconds left is crazy. They are force feeding him the ball when it clear as day Jaren has been way better. Go look at the last two games in the 4th and 3rd quarters. Look at the others games and watch those quarters. There are too many empty possessions when Des be on the floor. Last game in the 3rd he took 3 bad shots in a row and they cut the lead down. Game before that he was force the ball almost 3 minutes straight in the last 3 to 4 minutes and we didn’t score. Not once did we even attempt to get Jaren involved. Not to mention the bad 3 point attempts at the wrong time. Yes he is good but we have to call him out too because he has cause us just as much as any other player. It’s not noticeable for other people but for me I see it perfectly. The shot attempts balance itself out but those multiple empty possessions are hurting the team. Those bad timing 3s and force layup when it’s another player that has it going should not be happening. The way Jaren was playing he should have had 40 this must be fix because if you go to last year we lost a few games because this. If you don’t get what I am saying it’s simple as this Jaren had 27 points on 18 shots with 6 free throw attempts. Des had 30 points on 27 with 1 free throws attempts. It’s not just about the miss shots it’s the timing when those shots happens. Who is on the floor when they happens and what other shot that should have been taken.
