A Grenade Toss Is Nothing When You Survived A Bombing... Official (1)Thunder vs (8)Grizzlies 1st Round Playoff Thread

[DoubleJ13]

The scheduling of this series has been goofy as fukk

 

[Left.A1]

Trading JJJ should absolutely be on the table. If Edey and GG can mask Zion defensively, I wouldn't be against this, but they'd have to do a lot of homework on Zion because if that backfires, they've Vancouver level bad again.

Yeah I'm just spitballing and ALSO assuming that the Grizz want to keep building around JA.… you have to think that something gives if they just get worked over in this series after firing yet another coach.… I mean what's even the direction out in Memphis right now? What internal growth do they think will take them to the next level? They're already at the cap max so the only thing I see is to move some pieces around

regardless of Ja, I don't think JJJ is a 5 year $345 mil player and that might be his next deal if he stays in Memphis (basically the conundrum Nico had in Dallas is what Memphis will be staring down with JJJ very soon)

I do think they've found a gem in Jaylen Wells (peak version of him makes it easy to move Bane). Pippen looks like a rotation guy and I think GG has plenty of time to grow. They just need Ja to stop taking Shane McMahon bumps on the basketball court.

OKC abysmal shooting from 3. Get it together.

 

[Lord Beasley]

LA missing Caruso 100%.

Little Japanese yute just vibing on the bench

Is Scottie Pippen about to lead the team in scoring in 2 playoff games? Yeah after the GM is fired tomorrow all these players gotta go

Damn that's right...JJJ is entering a contract year...they damn near have to trade him at this point… gotta wonder if they're worried about getting caught up in a Rudy Gobert kinda situation

Idk how any serious franchise can look at edey as a major centerpiece going forward

 

[DoubleJ13]

No flagrant for grabbing someone around the neck

 

[LezJepzin]

Edey already with four fouls?

 

[aceboon]

Edey such a dirty ass player, he stay doing shyt like that

The Grizzles have to do it because they are in cap space hell.

OKC play around too much. We play down to our competition too often. Game should be a blowout, but only shooting 4-23 from 3. How is that even possible? Cavs smelled blood and stomped Miami out. That's what we should be doing. Looks like they're going through the motions. Just get the series over and hope Denver can extend the series with LAC.
