    They signed him to a contract. It's called free agency.

    A career 29.5% three-point shooter is so far shooting at 43.1% from the three-point line. Yeah. Don't get too excited @what - it's only 11 games.

    I guess he replied to the ad the grizz took out in the Memphis Gazette.

    True, but his last 76 games over the last couple seasons he has been near 40% from three. Seems to me that he has figured out how to be at least average from there, which is fantastic for his drive game.

    Enjoy it while you can, because he is on a 1-year deal and clearly looking to get paid, and Memphis has zero cash.

    Because the Grizzlies are a lame franchise who swapped players with the Sacramento Kings. ;)

    Zach Randolph & Vince Carter for Tyeke Evans & Ben McLemore

    Are the Grizz gonna retire Tyreke's number?

    Can they do that? They're at $102M salary for next year already and don't have his bird rights?

    Negative. Assuming Conley/Chandler/Gasol are still there, he is a goner.

    (I would be a little worried about paying him too. Seeing him have a career year during his contract year has to be concerning, especially with all his injuries. Almost EXACTLY what Chandler Parsons pulled off.)

    They will have the midlevel exception which will be 8.8 million with 5% raises, so they can offer him about 4yr 40 million.

    You better hope he plays worse If you want to get him on that contract, but in the hopes of perpetual Grizzlies mediocrity, I hope you are right and you guys re-sign him on that deal.

    I am sure some day the Grizzlies will retire his number and have a ceremony for him.

    Is he about to show the world he is on james harden level?

    Will he reclaim his status over curry and harden as the best player in that draft?
