Upper management seems to think that changing their coach is going to keep them from being yearly 1st round fodder for the spurs :scheming:

They need to think again :ufdup:

Might as well do a Gasol for Danny, Patty, and a 1st now since the tank is on :blessed:

They got over 200 million dollars in two players with chronic knee and ankle/achilles issues :picard::scust:

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.


yup this team is pathetic, feel sorry for the fans, they are right now looking at the orlando magic of the west

Hope Fizdale finds a new coaching job real soon, Bucks could use him, Kidd just can't coach NBA team

Already answered him, they need rebuild via draft.


They're putting a :ld: 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.
Not every team is meant to win it all. The Grizzlies aren’t selling fans on winning a title. Deep down they know they’ll never be good enough for it. They CAN sell you on making the playoffs, getting a free towel and singing All I Do Is Win a couple of times in the playoffs. They do that because they’re not interested in reverting back to the Vancouver Grizzlies.

The treadmill looks great compared to running up a big ass hill. I kinda don’t blame em. They know their limitations and for NBA fans who think they’re bad for business, they play their position well enough to not be afraid of seeing them in super important games. As a Grizzlies fan you just have to know those terms and conditions. They’re that NCAA squad that will never sniff a final four but you can see them in your tourney pool almost every year. They’re the New Mexico Lobos of the NBA.

not to mention the horrible parsons signing, parsons is so garbage that a rookie dilllon brooks is better than him
They also fired Lionel Hollins after the Grizzlies had their first ever western conference finals series

the ownership and gm are pathetic as fukk, no loyalty

Fam, they have 7 straight seasons of making the playoffs, it's time to start over because if they let this go longer the end result will be far worse. They aren't making the playoffs anymore, they can't sell that dream to fans, and holding onto Conley/Gasol like this is going to hurt them when it comes time to draft. They are up against the clock now with the Celtics owning their pick in 2019, which is protected but will eventually becomes unprotected in 2021 which is the year Conley's contract is up and a year after Gasol's contract is done. The ownership from the Vancouver squad is gone, so that doesn't really hold water. The Grizz are at a crossroad and the smart move is to move on from this shytty squad they've built, you're talking about them as though their two star players aren't 30 and soon to be 34. This isn't the NCAA, this is the NBA and when you come to the point the Grizz are at right now you have to do the smart thing, we've seen this happen over and over again when teams don't know when it's time to let go and it almost always turns out bad in the end.
