The Memphis Grizzlies’ NBA trade deadline plans | The Athletic NBA Show
I’m curious about like what Memphis does uh they’ve got obviously you know so many players out and their season is pretty much a wrap but they do I mean they traded Stephen Adams right like are they learning enough about some of these new pieces they have you know Vince is
Playing really good he’s looking like it might be a good F like Gigi is kind of like he feels like a mold cut from something right like hey man it’s unbelievable is is there a chance do you think you think they should maybe get active and start preparing for year I
Think they should be aggressive I think they I think the Grizzlies need to be proactive because you can get ahead of a lot of this stuff now because you have a number of players that are in that kind of same tier of like can they be actual
Legit role players or are they just going to be under the bench guys you know you have guys Santi oama Luke Canard David Rody you know Z Williams enough guys that in the right setting around the league could be got they got dudes huh it feel like they got aund of
Dudes yeah they just turn around every year then have B one like they’re guys that are that can that are attractive to other teams now I was gonna say isn’t does luk Luke Canard doesn’t really fit anymore does he like he fits he fits jaw
With a jaw team but he ain’t got a jaw team right now so right yeah and and that’s why I think if if if the opportunity is there they should definitely consider moving some of these guys and just having like a consolidation move just to Because by
The time next season comes around you’re gonna have to deal with okay who’s going to be the starting center if you’re not going to roll out jar at the five you need another guy to come in because now Stephen’s gone and now luxury’s gone as well do you depend on Brandon Clark who
Hasn’t been healthy in in quite some time I was watching the game and I forgot about him like I was like right oh that’s Brandon Clark like where youly and it’s funny it’s funny that this season even when jaw returned even though it was that that lasted a what
About a week and a half he showed you in that span that he’s still that guy so you know that going forward you can rely on J you can rely on Desmond Bane who’s taking leaps as well even though he’s been out for a while too and jiren you
Have your big three you have a quar of build around you still need shooting you still need Rim protection and you need a rebound because jarn has never been consistent rebounders so there are moves out there to go and get you those kind of players but like like someone like a
Kellick would be great in Memphis you know someone like a Daniel Gafford will be great in Memphis teams like just players around the league that that that can fit because you have so many guys on this roster that are not going to fit in a year’s time why not be corrective and
Get ahead of the thing right now yeah see da I think I think one of the things the the Warriors have showed us is just how different the league is even than it was last year New Kids on the Block to me teams like Memphis and even like
Sacramento and the Warriors they they found themselves like man we were really good last year we gonna run it back and it’s like right yeah no buddy it’s different I don’t know about that it feels like it feels like Memphis needs to rethink this thing based on like all
Right next year because next year this is gonna be OKC’s League Minnesota’s you know what I’m saying like you got to keep up you got to keep up they might need to be rethinking this right now like yeah all right you know what I’m saying like CU it ain’t going to be the
Same league no more and and granted 2022 they pushed the Warriors to The Brick but I mean they got cooked by the Lakers a playing team right like you know what I’m saying
