They may have been meaningless games but they weren't for opponents they were getting buckets and playing defense against real NBA talent!
My breakdown and I have said it before but let me be clear. Of course GG Jackson and Vince williams Jr. goodwin and Pippen Jr have earned a spot (I leave it to the GM who is on two way contracts) and Jemison has at least earned an invitation to compete next year.
As for regular roster players, I would want to keep Stevens, LaRavia and Smart back (we didn't get a chance to see how he would fit in).
I am jettisoning Zaire, rose, Konchar and, Kennard.
That gives us 3 roster spots depending on what you could get back. Smart is playing PG off the bench and V. Williams will come the bench for bane.
Okay I dig the new intro
I can’t help but wonder if the starters will even be ready for next season. I thought Steven Adams would be available at the beginning of the season, but he ended up being out for the whole season!!
😂😂😂😂
I miss the old intro mane
GG and Jake have made Zaire even more expendable! I'd love to keep him because I believe he will still get better but money wise it makes sense to trade him
Stevens is the only player it would be easy for me to say goodbye to. He's good, but he's basically Brooks in the sense that he's too good to play the role the Grizzlies need him to play. Maybe it was just because he was trying earn a spot and the team didn't have many scorers but you gotta pass the ball.
As for Jemison. I freaking love his game, drive, and mentality. He's just not there yet but I don't wanna see him anywhere else.
Same thing for Pippin. He's gonna cook us if we let him go.
GG and LaRavia give me hope if the we do have minor injuries.
And as for Vince. He's my second favorite player on the Grizzlies at the moment behind Bane. At least until Ja lights the league on fire.
Run that ish back
Edit: I forgot about Z. GG and LaRavia are trying to make him irrelevant. I hope there's hope for him
Trade Santi and ziare Santi cannot play defense and had a lot of questionable moments and ziare has had so many chances jake has shown way more improvement than him
I ran into GG and KD and either KD still 6'9-6'10 or GG 6'11-7 feet
Good stuff guys. So glad this season is over. Been a big fan of Joe since GBB days so yea he has a following
Do not fret Grizzlies fans! I watched a lot of your games in the 2024 period and I think now the future is bright. The Team had a rare opportunity to really evaluate a lot of young talent in real-time and not just in little spots off the bench, but with multiple starts. This should streamline the assessment process dramatically to allow for good choices going forward. Lots of young talent there that can really compete at the NBA Level. You should convert Scotty P. Jr. to a regular contract for starters. All that College, G-League experience and now the 20 games with many starts with great success shows he is the real deal.
