Joe is horrible at talking about basketball smh.
Edey is not perfect, but he is a perfect fit in Memphis. And we should use his strength, give him the ball 5-15 times a game, special when he is playing with bench guys.
I wish we could get yuki on the floor
At the end of the day Zach would be an asset to any NBA team.
You just ran into the Purdue fans…we gotta be loud defending our guys because everyone else and their mothers are hating…you can see it everywhere…he can’t play he can’t hang he to slow…half of these people never even watched him play in college…other half are mad that he cooked them
After seeing Scottie in preseason I’ll take yuki he’s a better player and playmaker I’m still not convinced pippen ready he’s not a good enough shooter he’s below average and does not have the physical attributes to be a back up
Edey is known to have a strong work ethic. But, how he's improved his conditioning and worked on his body is impressive!
LOVE THE SHOW AND BOTH IF YOU HOSTS Yall do a lot for the Grizzlies and the city of Memphis!
Joe you my guy and many takes I’m honestly with you but I’m still higher on Tyus than Scottie. I think Scottie may have a higher ceiling at this point in time but my trust and faith in Tyus and Drose is higher than Scottie
I bet if edey was playing for LA he’d be the best rookie n da world
In the immortal words of Bobby Knight, many people watch bball, many people play it…but very few understand it. Almost everyone said Zach Edey would not be a factor in college basketball. He was the most impactful force in college ball in the past 20 years. Then, those same folks said he has no chance in the NBA. Well, based on early performance, it seems he might make an impact in the NBA. People's opinions mean absolutely nothing – just ask Steph Curry. Watch Zach cook in the NBA and carve out an impactful career. Go Grizzlies!
Role player? lmao
What has Ja Morant ever won? 2 time national player of the year and you say role player to Ja who never won anything.
Remember Joe you wanted Cligan 🤣
Scotty Pippen's son earned it, unlike Lebron James' son.
Jones can become a Tyus….but lets not forget Tyus had the best turnover ratio in the league!!
Beale Street Zach Edey will be rookie of the year.
Zach Edey is gonna be a star. It might not happen right away, but I would be genuinely surprised if he never became a 20-10 guy. He may have some growing pains in terms of dealing with double teams and all the other crap NBA teams will throw at him, but someone with his attributes, skillset, and work ethic is gonna figure it out.
Edey is a cheat code, and if you can't see that, after all he's shown, lord help you. The doubters are already eating their words
Joe is absolutely right about Tyus Jones. He was great at filling in when Ja didn't play, but wasn't that great coming off the bench as a backup.
Edey's closest comps so far are Shaq, Wilt, Yao and Duncan
Joe: he's the ninth pick overall. I hope maybe he can be a decent roll player.
Also Joe: Why does no one think I know what I'm talking about.
There’s no way Edey is a role player! He is Yao Ming 2.0!
Jokic wasnt allowed to be jokic until he proved it. Edey should prove he deserves more touches, and he will
I wish other teams sign Yuki to standard contract. He's betfer than Pippen./other PGs. Grizzlies suck.
