Marc Gasol got Fizdale fired

[bxrfan]

Jury's out on if Fizdale is actually a good head coach. The Grizzlies last year underachieved and part of that is on Fiz. There's no way we should've only won one more game with a fairly healthy roster than when we trotted out 28 players in 2016

However the other half is on the players. Everytime change was brought to the table there was pushback by the Core Four. No coach was going to have the same relationship with them the same way Lionel Hollins did because Hollins was the one who built Grit N Grind into a winner and thus had their utmost respect

While Fiz may or may not have been a good coach the main problem is Chris Wallace. His terrible management is the reason we're in this predicament now, and as long as he is absolved of any blame we'll always be stuck on a treadmill. He has GOT to go

the other thing that got me fukked up is I thought they had been trying to move Gasol last year. like Gasol has that much weight? he likely not to be in Memphis his damn self soon.

rebuild to do what exactly? they not gonna get in any free agents or trades.

Grizzlies are a middle of the pack, make the playoffs, win a couple games and exit type team.

They sell out that arena, and are a decent.. im sure the owner is content with that.

A complete rebuild via the draft, who exactly rebuilds through free agency or trades?


They need a tear down now, their pick is unprotected in 2021, therefore they need to accelerate their rebuild to avoid losing that pick when it could potentially be a top 3 pick.


Load up on high lottery picks for the next 3 drafts.

Baldwin and Zagorac aren't even on the team anymore, and Deyonta should probably be in the G-League.

And this man has been with the team 2000 and fukking 7.

Results tho

@Malta you know I think he’s a shyt poster but he makes a valid point.

 

[DonKnock]

Only a matter of time before Fizdale is on NBA TV talkin shyt about Gasol

Nah that only happens if the coach was a cac and the star player ain’t got the complexion for protection

 

[GiantGonzalez]

Gasol actually went to high school in Memphis because of his brother. I’m pretty sure the Grizzlies fans consider him a hometown hero. If they are retiring Tony Allen’s jersey, what you think they are going to do for Marc Gasol?

How much of their mess can be attributed to Hollinger?

Already answered him, they need rebuild via draft.


They're putting a product on the floor right now without any sort of hope for the future, if you can't sell your fans on winning a title, sell them on the hope of the future and watching a young team with a potential star develop.

 

[He Who Posts Well]

Fizdale did not deserve to get fired. They should have been able to work this out. I guess there was a lot of things going on behind the scenes.

I doubt he will be out of work very long

 

[[REDACTED]]

grizzlies cant rebuild, attendance is trending downward if they lose fans hello seattle

 

[NYC Rebel]

If I’m Mike Conley, this would be a video replay of me at our next practice

Don’t cry for him....look at whose bosom he gets to cry into!!
