[David Aldridge] Grizzlies Open to Dealing Thabeet

I haven't seen enough of Thabeet to have an opinion on him, but the Grizz having/lacking resources to train him is a valid consideration. This is the team that fired all of their scouts last year lol.

That's because Thabeet wasn't in position to do much of anything, its not like he was already set up in the paint and then Lopez dunked on his ass. Normally that would have resulted in a missed shot and foul since THabeet went up to challgenge the shot, but like I said Lopez whacked him in the neck (seen in 8-9 secs of the clip) and Thabeet gave up initiating contact to dodge the forearm swinging for his neck.
