Is any player on Memphis worth multiple first round picks?

Letting Dillon walk simply bc of vibes and antics, then ending up in a spot where a rookie is your only perimeter defender is hilarious

JJJ plays the game (offensively) the wrong way tbh. Hard to root for him

Blame the media as well as posters on this site for that as they kept insisting that the Grizzles didn't need him and that he'd end up in China after that playoff series.

Should have reigned in his antics (sounds familiar) and his penchant for overshooting before it got to that point.

To defend Memphis, they’ve tried to make the big move and nobody wants them. Memphis was practically showing ass tryna get guys like KD and Butler and they get curved. It’s weird.

NBA players get super weird with Black cities :mjpls:
Tbh if I could live in Miami or GS or Memphis, I know which one is getting crossed off

Durcant would spend one week in the Deep South and force another trade

Who is the superstar :pachaha: ? We talking about Ja he regular
KD and Jimmy Butler. If I'm trying to win rings and playing for legacy, I wouldn't want no part of dealing with Ja and his antics in that locker room.

That shyt is a distraction and turnoff to some other players regardless of how funny people think it is.

It literally took OKC ten plus seasons to get back to contending post KD

Sometimes you should just take the successful business model of 50 wins a year
It took the miracle of Kawhi being impatient with Shai or it would still be spooky in OKC. Time had little to do with it

Memphis' biggest issues are that they have no playmakers and vets. That's a relatively easy fix. The other issue is they don't have a legit #1, but then the same applies to the majority of the league.

There's not a whole lot of point to scorching Earth and starting over, because they're only going to end up in the same spot they're now in.

Star free agents won't be lining up down Beale St. to play for them anytime soon.

Might as well be cheap and save money

Kinda why I don't think small market teams should exist
