Griz Offseason and allathat

[Keengcong]

I know he isn't a Hollinger type of player but JR Smith seems like the perfect Bayless replacement if you can keep the threat of Tony Allen 2-piecing him around if he gets outta line.

Conley/Wroten
Allen/Smith
Qpon/Franklin
Zbo/Davis
Gasol/Koufos

Let Prince be a 7 million dollar waterboy until somebody is willing to pick him up

i like Franklin, what a steal

JR Smith

Watching a draft express scouting report


Dem Strengths Make you look like you should be number 1 overall



But them weaknesses

flat-footed set shot, slow windup, inconsistent release.
Inefficient in catch and shoot situations - 23.7%
Shot only 21% when guarded and 26% when left open

. More consistent and effective off the dribble 32%



He said he always thought he played like Tony Allen

Coach Gone = Bayless back?





@ESPNSteinLine I'm told Grizzlies G Jerryd Bayless, in mild surprise, has elected to invoke $3.1 million player option for next season to stay in Memphis




Its official

I like it...but how much over the salary cap are we now?

Gotta go in overdrive trying to dump Prince on some poor franchise now

Franklin was an absolute steal for the Grizzlies and he may be a replacement for Tony Allen in a couple of years. But the Grizz still needs someone on that wing who can create a shot on their own.

we are 4 million over at $62 million, but 9 mill under the luxury tax.

Bayless opts in. Looks like the hiring of Joerger may be better for him than Hollins.

Our guys are meeting with Tony Allen right now.

@FlyerGrizBlog A source says Grizzlies have declined qualifying offers to both Austin Daye and Jon Leuer, making both unrestricted free agents.
