@Memphis Grizzlies

Does Buddy Hield to the Grizzlies make sense for Memphis?



An elite three point shooter may well be on the trade market. Should the Grizzlies pursue acquiring another long-range sharpshooter, cost be damned? Can Memphis get involved in another way? Or should the team pass on getting in on another transaction with the season approaching? Hosts Joe Mullinax and Damichael Cole talk that and more on this episode of Locked on Grizzlies!

  1. I think currently the Grizz has to lose 2 players already. I am not with getting Buddy; giving up Z and BC would be too much.

    I put the need for a backup 5 with size as the biggest need.

    As is an Adams/ Jaren injury screws us again.

    Seeing Kenny and Santi’s plat determines what happens with BC.

  2. As a fan of the Grizzlies since the pyramid days (s/o to Stromiles Swift) I also believe you can’t have to much shooting BUT you can have too many shooters who play the same position. For example, look at the Warriors (Steph, Klay and Poole) it was really hard for them to start together and get touches especially since Klay defense not the same again – they had special moments but many times left a lot to be desired. In the case for the Grizzlies I think we have to many guards and adding Hield wouldn’t make it any better unless we get rid of Kennard and Konchar. If you ask me we need a player that’s under the radar that plays 3 & D role. If you ask me I think the Grizzlies should aim for Saddiq Bey. Hell fit the 3 or 4 position well making him a strecth but has a big body to guard big wings not name AD.

    As far as a replacement for Clarke I think we are jumping the gun on this one. We had two examples of players coming back for normally career ending injuries and playing well. That’s JJJ and KD. With todays medicine, nutrients and recovery program BC should be fine. In a case the grizzlies want to get rid of Clarke I believe John Collins should of been our target. Plays basically the same style and role as Clarke minus the injury.

    Finally if it’s any star-wing we should target I believe it should be PG. He can play the 1-4 which give us versatility and also can determine outcomes of the game when he’s on the court. I understand his injury history but a Ja, Bane, PG, JJJ, and Adams lineup is dangerous. With PG it’ll take a lot of pressure off of Ja and he’ll be the de facto 2nd best ball handler on the team.

    Potential line up (if I was the GM)
    Ja
    Bane
    PG
    JJJ/Collins
    Adam

    If we had enough asset after the Collins and PG trades then I would focus on Hield as the 6th man. Hield, Collins and PG could come in the game and give Ja and Bane rest.. Just my two cents
