Fire Jenkins. This is the exact same nonsense we dealt with 2 years ago. I gave him the benefit of the doubt last season for doing a great job with what we had, but I’ve seen enough. He’s a good developmental coach, not championship caliber.
If anything Edey would be better in close out minutes when people are more tired…rather than early in games where everyone is running around fresh plus when people are tired the last thing they wanna do is battle a monster like Edey down low…use his automatic inside offense in the half court during the 3rd and 4th quarters to save the energy of guys like Ja so they dont have to spend huge energy every play late in games and can still be ready to get transition buckets
TJ's rotations are an absolute mess. Yes, we have people hurt. Yes, we have some new guys. But you cant rely on the bottom of your rotation to carry you and sit your stars.
Dude these rotations are killing us.. TJ thinks he’s playing chess or something, but he’s losing it for us. This is easy as checkers.. KEEP UR BEST PLAYERS IN. Defense ain’t as bad as he says it is.. it’s not good, but the prob is whatever complex mess he’s trying to pull off.
and analytics is not the way. This type of thinking is too robotic. If you see ur player hurt or a game goin a certain way or is crunch time. PLAY YOUR GUYS!!
These rotations are ridiculous.. these other teams are playing their best players 3/4 of each quarter and we’re pulling Ja out after the first 4 minutes of the 1st quarter and he sits him in the 4th until 4 minutes left in the game with the games getting out of hand..
I agree with everyone on here about Jenkins. I am watching the game thinking "What is Taylor Jenkins doing?" Simply go look at the box score from the Nets game. Jenkins played 12 player's with the least getting 10 minutes. The defense is just getting beat off the dribble and does any player know how to rotate and cover the 3 point shot? Also whenever an opponent goes small Jenkins blinks immediately and puts Edey on the bench. Wells a 2nd RD pick played 23 minutes vs Edey's 18 minutes. If a team goes small put Edey on the block on offense and abuse the smaller defender on the other end. BOTTOM LINE keep playing 12 player's a games losing games BUT hey at least your roster won't be tired.
Lakers fan here - curious why Taylor Jenkins is playing his best players less than 30 minutes? They’re not even old players either, these are young in-their-prime ready players… what the hell is going on?! Does Jenkins’ staff think they’ve discovered some type of analytics-based phenomenon with these rotations? wtf just play your best players no less than 35 min! Yes Ja and JJJ and Bane have been injured a bunch in the past, but the LAST thing u wanna do is baby them and coddle them from playing heavy minutes… you have to get their bodies adapted to playing heavy minutes in their youth! This is insanity
Jenkins is a useless coach. He plays the bench like they are the starters. Zach edey off to a great start, then coach gets the bench ready for him. 18min 13pts 2RB 1A 1S? Ja morant on the bench during crucial time during 4qtr. Jenkins garbage 🗑
This team is just not worth my time any more. Even when they’re not missing players, they are still so frustrating to watch. The fun moments are too rare. And their rotations are like a preseason game with everyone getting a chance. Why do I even bother tuning in anymore…
@@GrizzliesEdits thought we got some hot shot Europen assistant coach that was some kind of coach wizard.. I say the get rid of Jenkins and bring him on as HC
I’ve been seeing these Taylor’s rotation habits for the last few years and it has cost us many games throughout the years.. he’s hardheaded and won’t adjust.. it’s time to move on from him.. we’re wasting Ja’s good years so something going to come to a head here soon
The Griz are definitely not playing to their strengths when they have a mismatch and the 3s aren't falling. When Simmons had 5 fouls why didn't the team punish them by pounding it inside to Eddy or Jaren.
Taylor Jenkins needs to be fired immediately bad lineups always running zone and we plays help defense too much also he playing 2nd round Players before Edey that’s not even our true bench and they averaging the same amount of minutes as our starters Ja Should be upset
@sebastienmagloire1139 I've been a fan since the Zach Randolph days so yes because I usually expect playoff level basketball from the Grizzlies for over a decade now. Hopefully this is just an early season struggle and we return to our normal selves soon! :)
All the potential to compete this season, but can't do it losing games that should have been over by 3rd quarter. Hurting ourselves not even 10 games into the season.
Has anyone considered how injured we have been since switch team medical providers? Is there a different philosophy on how our players are managed and conditioned over the last 2 years? Damichael/Joe, can we get a trainer or conditioning coach on for an interview?
I know you and lots of other people are going to defend Taylor Jenkins, and I think he’s a good coach, but why in 2 separate losses are we resting Ja all the way from 10 minutes left in the 4th to only 4 minutes left in the 4th when we’re down double digits??? like that’s not enough time to ramp Ja back up, and we can’t expect Ja to save us every time in the final 2 minutes. Ja needs to be out there with at least 7 minutes left. like come on, too little too late is exactly right, why did TJ not learn from this when he did like the same thing with Ja’s rotation last week in a loss?
Two weeks into the season, and it's become painfully clear that this Grizzlies team has no chance. The new system the genius coaching team has come up with is a disaster and easy for even the weaker teams to beat . Ja's wings are clipped, and he's turned restrained and overcautious, which is against his explosive, creative nature. Add Smart, B. C. and Edey to the mix, and our worst nightmares have realized. Somebody wake me up, please!
Everybody but Jenkins knows about this rotation, I wish I wouldn’t have bought half season tickets. You’re playing guys that don’t need to be in the game. You are resting guys at the start of the season. I mean they can’t be tired. Grit and grind I don’t think so.
Man, this one was tough, but it has to be worse for the players. I'm not saying fire the coach, but changes must be made, or it's inevitable. The people will fire him
They need to send the Japanese point guard to the G League and bring up Armando Bacot to play center with Edey. He doesn't hardly play and how the defense is playing now he wont. TJ is not it.
All this min restrictions and load management be make me miss Kobe and A.I so much more. It’s ridiculous guys get to the nba and all of a sudden they can’t play 35 mins a night. That’s what time outs are for, tv breaks , free throws, dead balls, fouls. You get time to break within the game.
The problem is, he can’t change that over cautious behavior. This is who the man is. And this medical staff is horrendous! But I have to be honest, ja walks around all angry looking all the time. He’s sulking and just not a good leader. I’m talking even when the game is close. But the nba refs will forever screw us. Brooklyn Nets magically had their best foul differential all season. They had their lowest fouls all season. I saw so many non calls. Even Pete and Brev mentioned it and most of the time those guys are so unbiased they are almost more of an advocate for the other side. I despise the nba and the way they manipulate games by allowing superstars calls, big teams calls, etc. they certainly don’t give Memphis any favors. They make it hard to be a Grizzlies fan and I wonder if the grizzlies may be on the chopping block within the next decade. Also, Jenkins makes it hard to be a grizzlies fan. Now, my favorite player, ja morant, is making it hard to be a grizzly fan. He’s just turned into an angry dude and is constantly limping or in some sort of health situation. A game shouldn’t get me so upset, but the Grizzlies get me upset. Life is too short to be frustrated. I can watch when we lose, but this? This is just not fun anymore. I’m not enjoying myself anymore. I sold all my tickets and I’m not buying them next season. I hope the guys figure this out because a lot of fans that know are talking just like me.
I agree Dimichael. I didn’t like the interactions he had with fans… I think you ignore it and let fans .. fan… fan feeling are always predicated on winning
Smart. is not the same player...JA is reckless on offense that leads to injuries ...Bane is small...clunky frontcourt...no big wings...did I miss anything?
Jenkins team has always had shooting issues, apparently Ja can only score on layups ( and dunks,if he does not bounce it off his head) but the grizz were solid defensely. Not anymore.. They are awful.. Wide frekin open 3 pointers..
This is the worst coach in Grizzlies history. Taylor Jenkins literally has the most talent at his disposal than any coach we've ever had. Hollins would go to the finals with this roster. If you keep defending this mediocre coach than you really don't know shit about basketball.

Naw they not trying to incorporate him the game has been ruined today by big men standing at the 3 point line
TJ's rotations are an absolute mess. Yes, we have people hurt. Yes, we have some new guys. But you cant rely on the bottom of your rotation to carry you and sit your stars.

Grizzlies need to guard that 3 point line cause everybody smoking us from 3

PREAAAAAAAAACH. Why on earth we were sitting the guys that coulda saved us is BEYOND me.

Grizzlies bigs should have dominated this game but they want to keep running around 90 percent of the offense and hope something happens.
It’s like Jenkins wanted to lose this game on purpose 😂 Like wtf even net fans weren’t expecting to win that’s how bad Jenkins is coaching rn

Because Taylor Jenkins is an ass coach.
We trying to understand that it makes no sense

He avoiding early injuries
This team is just not worth my time any more. Even when they’re not missing players, they are still so frustrating to watch. The fun moments are too rare. And their rotations are like a preseason game with everyone getting a chance. Why do I even bother tuning in anymore…
It’s not the team it’s clearly the coach and you see it every game ! HE GOTTA GO ✌🏽
Coach need to roll.
I get your pain, but a real fan isn't gonna actually drop their team
@@GrizzliesEdits I’m just saying I’m not going to watch as much as I used to. A “real fan” doesn’t have to watch every game including the bad ones.

I'd love to see what Greg Popovich would do with this roster as Jenkins was an Asst Coach in San Antonio.
As a superstar Ja needs to score more points. Plain and simple. We need at least 25 from him.
He has a bad game all players do
@ He hasnt scored at least 25 all season bro
Well they refuse to use edy in the post while playing wild and inconsistent
Been saying it but the sooner we have these terrible losses the sooner the FO can change the coach. Is what it is
Try being a Grizzlies and Titans fan, its pain all year round LOL. 😂
Facts bro it's pathetic
Ik y’all enjoyed y’all run in 2021-23 for the grizzlies when they were in their peak
@sebastienmagloire1139 I've been a fan since the Zach Randolph days so yes because I usually expect playoff level basketball from the Grizzlies for over a decade now. Hopefully this is just an early season struggle and we return to our normal selves soon! :)
Try to be Grizzlies and Cowboys fan.Lol😢
Grizzlies need to regroup man! Coaching is HORRIBLE! OKC is so much better
All the potential to compete this season, but can't do it losing games that should have been over by 3rd quarter. Hurting ourselves not even 10 games into the season.
I’m happy I found your channel

Haven't played 10 games and already starting to see these boys shatter like glass smh

Are these new assistant coaches dictating these rotations? You pay these guys so play them. If they get injured so be it, it's a part of the game.

Embarrassing lose

Im assuming the staff has a specific number of games before we start taking games seriously. 10, 15, 20 games?
Look I’ve been “team Ja” even when he did all that BS and got his ass suspended but don’t take slick shots at the people that been holdin you down.
I agree Dimichael. I didn’t like the interactions he had with fans… I think you ignore it and let fans .. fan… fan feeling are always predicated on winning
Cook Damichael
Smart. is not the same player...JA is reckless on offense that leads to injuries ...Bane is small...clunky frontcourt...no big wings...did I miss anything?
hey I'm your everydayer. Where is my food? :)
Tragic news
Jenkins team has always had shooting issues, apparently Ja can only score on layups ( and dunks,if he does not bounce it off his head) but the grizz were solid defensely. Not anymore.. They are awful.. Wide frekin open
3 pointers..
Grizzlies must trying to get cooper flag or something next year 😏
Why? Spreadsheet Jenkins is the problem
@iceburg3323 I was making a joke grizzlies are throwing games & tanking to get the #1 draft picks prospects cooper flag.
I respect Jenkins, but he isn’t going to be the coach to get us over the hump.
Similar to the Mark Jackson situation in Golden State
Mark Jackson is 10 times the coach Jenkins would ever be.
This is the worst coach in Grizzlies history. Taylor Jenkins literally has the most talent at his disposal than any coach we've ever had. Hollins would go to the finals with this roster. If you keep defending this mediocre coach than you really don't know shit about basketball.
Well said!
Grizzlies stink!!!!!!!!!! JA is so overrated!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think Morant is no longer the player he was. He's good but not elite anymore. He's gotten in his own way.
He may have disproved your take last night against Milwaukee.
