NBA Shakeup: Are the Memphis Grizzlies Playing Us All?



NBA Shakeup: Are the Memphis Grizzlies Playing Us All?

Is there a chance that the Memphis Grizzlies could be faking injuries in order to get a lottery draft pick well stay tuned to find out firstly why would the Grizzlies even do something like that if it was true well in the NBA this is basically called tanking which is a

Process in which a team purposely loses or destroys their team in order to get a high draft pick before we get into the injuries first let’s get into the why the Memphis Grizzlies are a really good basketball team there is no denying that but when you compare them to the top

Teams in the league like the B Celtics Milwaukee Bucks Denver Nuggets Minnesota Timberwolves and New York Knicks it’s apparent that they just simply don’t have enough Firepower to compete with those teams and with John Morant missing all of those games due to suspension at the beginning of the Season it ruined

The team even more in terms of chemistry I honestly think this is the first year in a long time where we don’t have a clear finals winner due to the incredible talent in the league today combined with the freedom of free agents of flexible contracts teams are being

Stacked with Talent like just seriously think about the Celtics they literally traded away Marcus Smart the heart and soul of the team a former Defensive Player of the Year a historically great defensive player and it appears they are even better without him Boston as Jason Tatum Jaylen Brown Drew holiday kristo

Porzingis Derek white pton Pritchard Al Horford and now Xavier Tillman that seems like a roster you would build on 2K this is without a doubt the most stacked team on both ends of the floor that I’ve ever seen maybe even over the 2019 Raptors on paper at least the

Knicks who’ve been an absolute surprise this season to have Jaylen Brunson Julius Randall Mitchell Robinson OG Dante demenzo Josh Hart precious and isaah hartenstein and oh yeah now they have freaking bonovich to add to that just an insane roster from top to bottom so hopefully you see where I’m coming

From the Grizzlies 2024 season already started off horribly maybe they took a peak into the future and called things off before the storm hit a roster of John Morant Marcus smt John Kar Luke Canard Santi Alama and jiren Jackson Jr just just wasn’t going to cut it I don’t

Care if Morant averaged 45 it wouldn’t be near enough after Mor’s suspension was up he quickly showed everyone why he’s one of the best players in the NBA in the nine games he did play he averaged 25 points five rebounds and eight assists pretty much picking up

Where he left off last season I think some people forgot just how Dynamic and exciting of a point guard he was we’ve been spoiled with Elite guards like Brunson Steph Tyrese halber and dearn fox just to name a few but during that niname stretch the excitement that I

Felt from watching him was different from any of them it was that Derrick Rose type of feeling but greater JN not only had the jaw-dropping athleticism but his handles and his demeanor in trash dogging added to his Aura but as we know he would have to undergo season

Ending surgery on his shoulder which completely crushed the Grizzlies playoff chances let alone the finals and this injury didn’t happen during a live game so it kind of came as a shock to everyone when it was announced he injured his shoulder in a training session or at least so they say then on

January 12th in a loss to the mighty Clippers Desmond B would suffer a Grade Three ankle sprin that is keeping them out for 6 weeks while it’s been reported that the recovery process is going very well I doubt that they’ll be trying to rush him back but it doesn’t stop there

Because Marcus Smart would get injured as well it just seems like nothing is going right in Memphis and it just makes me sort of believe that maybe the Grizzlies are secretly shutting down their players for the rest of the year waving the white flag on the season I

Know you’re probably thinking why would they go to extreme lengths and say they’re injured and the answer to that is because load management is being looked down upon at an all-time high so much so that the NBA put in a 65 game rule so it would make sense that the

Grizzlies would want to avoid backlash and instead labeled their players as injured now okay listen I’m not trying to say that they are faking injuries I mean who knows not me or you but could they have exaggerated the return times maybe so would that really surprise you

If it were true probably not right now are they tanking well that’s hard to say because that word’s usually thrown around way too much therefore most people confused tanking with a team that’s simply being a horribly constructive team in the past the 76ers were actually known for really tanking

For draft picks and it sort of didn’t work at first but ended up working in the long run Sam hinki the quote unquote Mastermind of the Sixers tanking strategy implemented a new vision for the team’s future his plan involved dismantling the existing roster shedding High salaried veteran players and

Accumulating assets in the form of draft picks and young prospects the short-term sacrifice was positioned as a necessary step toward Ward long-term success a vision that would ultimately be named the process the process involved accepting losing Seasons as an inevitable byproduct of strategic rebuilding Pinky’s approach centered around accumulating high draft picks as

The NBA draft is widely regarded as the primary means for teams to acquire transformative Talent by Fielding young and experienced rosters the Sixers aims to maximize their chances in the draft lottery where the worst performing teams are granted higher odds of securing top picks the Sixers embarked on a

Deliberate Journey to the bottom of the standings strategically managing player rotations and employing inexperienced lineups critics of the strategy argued that tanking undermine the Integrity of the game compromised the entertainment value for fans and created a culture of losing that could have long lasting negative effects they also pointed to

The toll it took on players who despite their best efforts were part of a system designed for failure as the losses piled up the Sixers found themselves in Prime position during the NBA draft lottery each season brought anticipation and speculation regarding which potential Superstar would become the next

Cornerstone of the franchise the process became synonymous with Lottery nights where fans and analist eagerly awaited the Sixers fate from 2013 to 17 they suffered losing season after losing season embiid was drafted in 2014 but wouldn’t play until the 2016 2017 season and Ben Simmons was drafted in 2016 but

Wouldn’t play until the 20178 season things would turn once they were paired and while they ended up not working out the losing seasons were over and they now knew they finally had a generational player in Joel embiid fast forward to today and the 76ers are one of the best

Teams in the NBA so it took nearly a decade but the process is finally coming together now obviously the grizzly situation and the 76ers situations are totally different scenarios but my point is there’s only two results that can happen from tanking it works or it doesn’t work the 76ers ended up working

Over time and I think the same result could happen for the Grizzlies but instead of tanking nearly 10 damn years it could be in full effect as early as next season you see the Grizzlies have two Rising impact players on the roster GG Jackson and Vince Williams they have

Pretty much come out of nowhere and are exceeding in their roles Jackson is a 40% shooter and Vince Williams has been one of the better Defenders at his position this season two skill sets that win championships in today’s game so resting or shutting down their players and letting these to along with zier

Williams get some extra clock in could be an investment that results in a championship for the city of of Memphis not only that but the Grizzlies will most likely now have a lottery Pick and although this draft class is being deemed as an L it’s filled with plenty

Of role players who can contribute to championship teams which is exactly what the Grizzlies need jacobe Walter from Baylor is one of those guys who would fit perfectly the 6’5 guard is a great shooter who has impressive athleticism as well defensively he has potential you also have Robert Dillingham who’s a

Straight bucket at that point guard position he’s an NBA player there is no way around it and although the Grizzlies picked up Marcus smartt he serves more as a secondary playmaker and of course an elite Defender Rob would give him a much needed scoring boost off the bench

Sort of like bones Highland also don’t sleep on Ryan Dunn who is arguably the best defender in the draft and one of the better Defenders the college scene has seen in a long time at 6’8 Dunn has the body and instincts to be a high impact defender in just his first year

His offense is still pretty raw but so is Vince Williams and you can see he’s making it work there are just a lot and I mean a lot of guys I love in this draft as impactful role players that will mainly help championship teams whether or not the Grizzlies are tanking

Or faking injuries doesn’t matter they’re on the rise with GG and Vince Williams playing Great and The Grizzlies having a chance at the lottery this year they could go really deep in 2025 plus who knows what moves they can make in the off season with all of the

Attractive free agents going to be available this summer if I were the NBA I would keep a close eye on this punch thanks for watching and I’ll see you in the next one
