    not going to put anything on him about the loss after his father died

    you can't win them all

    4 of the next 6 are at home, so good time to get rest in their own beds. The schedule was made to eliminate back to back to backs to backs and even back to backs, but it seems now the team will be playing every second night

    A solid performance from Anderson, and not much else. It's embarrassing that Chandler Parsons went off against us. Marc Gasol and Conley didn't have big games, but they still thrashed us. This is a matter of concern going forward.

    Not all his fault tho, we waited way too long for Melo.

    Mbah, Tucker were somehow challenged on O.

    We still went with players with less size mostly and had to stick with Anderson.

    I like Beverley a lot no lie but game 6 against Spurs he wasn't there either. He plays with his heart and provides good things but he will go on scoring droughts too when you need points.

    I legitimately laughed at loud at you claiming Bec McLemore makes your team better.

    Is this the same guy the SACRAMENTO KINGS didn't want?

    Tell me again how many times you think Chandler Parsons is going to play like that this year? hahahahahaha your delusion/lack of understanding the game of basketball makes for pleasant reading

    I said benmac was our big free agent acquisition who hasnt played yet. The grizzlies had a plan in the offseason to get more athletic guys that could do multiple things offensively and defensively. And ben was one of those players.

    Ariza did not play one good game so far this season.

    Harden played not like Harden.
    I remember he could easily drop 30pts a game last season. But he did not have even one this season?

    Didn't you say yourself it was an end of an era? Now you're good again after signing Ben ****ing McLemore?

    We surely missed EGo last night. Get well soon, EGo!

    They're two decent players. But they don't make the Grizzlies a contender. There's just too little talent on that team aside from those 2 guys.

    In 2013-2014, the grizzlies had a great team but mike got a freak injury to his face. If mikes healthy, we had a damn good shot of winning the warriors series and the championship. We were a difficult team to beat that year.
    The year after that, we lose mike and marc, and had to play with a bunch of journeymen.
    Last year, was a transition year. Fizz was still trying to phase out the old style. We also lost tony for the playoffs and was playing with wayne selden, a dleaguer. The grizzlies also lost chalmers and had to play andrew harrison. Not only that but chandler gave us nothing ehich put the team in a bind.
    Still, you could see a precedent being formed even last year, despite the old guard, tony and zbo, resisting the changes. The grizzlies had a winning record against the spurs, rockets, gs, cleveland.
    The grizzlies this year are younger, deeper, and are more of fizz type players and so far it is working better than expected.

    I mean, you might make the playoffs, it's definitely possible. But it's just kind of sad that Gasol and Conley are wasting their prime years with no chance at the ring.

    I think Beverley was dealing with a death in the family game 6.
