Deion stop trying to take credit for what Greg’s been saying. You have not been saying the same thing. You’ve been somewhere between Greg and Aaron Torres. Greg’s been the only one to really go out on a limb and say Edey could be an all star in the NBA. He’s also played back to back games now with no foul issues and all of his teammates are massive Edey supporters. Ja, JJJ and Bane have all been relatively vocal about how good Edey has been.
Yo, Edey will do whatever he needs to do to win. Edey will play screener for Ja. Edey will be the dominant deterrent under the rim, and he will rebound everything in his area.
Everybody told me "his game won't translate to the NBA" and I said actually, it might translate BETTER. Think about it, none of these guys are used to defending a guy like this because they haven't had to. There isn't really a huge size gap in the NBA from the level of competition Edey was playing against in the Big Ten and against a lot of the other top teams in the country, so it's very unlikely that anyone will truly be able to shut down his post scoring. Edey has seen every coverage in the book thrown at him to try and stop him over the last 3 years so he's experienced at countering them. If you play him straight up, he'll kill you. If you send a double, you're likely leaving open a very good 3pt shooter. He's shown he's more than adept at kick out passes from the post. Every starting big man in the NBA either isn't tall and long enough to block his shot consistently or is too skinny to keep him from getting to his spot. "The league doesn't post up anymore" well the league has always had to adapt to whatever new style or system is effective at the moment, and just because other teams don't post up anymore doesn't mean he can't. In fact, he'll likely force others into having to play that way
Deion you said he can’t operate with JA and that Memphis is a bad fit…Greg said he will play alongside both and that when he is in without Ja he will be the likely be the featured player
Lol enjoyed yall take first time watching. Yes screw nba twitter im not on twitter but i nvr understood the zack doubt either. I wanted my raptors to draft him fit with the underdog everyone doubted us narrative too. Rooting for zack and memphis tho. Zack gonna be dominant
“In a league where centers are basically useless” brother 2 of the top 6 players in the league are centers including the best basketball player in the worldand Giannis might as well be one
you said at 5:29 like Shaq didn't play in the league and was unstoppable for practically his entire career bruh. let's go grizzlies!!! ps you guys have a great perspective and you just earned a new subscriber
Quick math - the best 3 pt shooting team in the NBA last year was 39%. That’s a 58% EFG. I’m pretty confident Edey can shoot over 60% from the field so he needs to get at least 15 attempts per game.
3:26 Is exactly how I feel. But this take is uninformed @ 8:00 . First, this off the court stuff, being about to lose basketball, which is his life, changed him(based on what people around him say). I don't think we have to worry about off the court stuff. In terms of basketball, he gets better every year. How can you confidently say what his ceiling is? If he shoots 39% from 3(1 more % than he shoots in the playoffs) is he good enough? Stay on that side!

Guy is insufferable lol
Facts. Deion is much closer to Aaron Torres than Greg and Sleepers. Typical of IU guys.
Deion rewriting history before our eyes is hilarious. 😂😂😂
His body language says it all 😂 he's pissed
Yo, Edey will do whatever he needs to do to win. Edey will play screener for Ja. Edey will be the dominant deterrent under the rim, and he will rebound everything in his area.
Greg is taking a victory lap before his first season has even started and I'm all here for it
Looking forward to how Deion hates on Edey here

The Edey Era has begun in the NBA
I started watching because of your Edey takes. I've been thinking the same thing you have been saying. This is totally going to work at the NBA level.
Always had faith in Zach. He works hard and keeps getting better ❤
Lol enjoyed yall take first time watching. Yes screw nba twitter im not on twitter but i nvr understood the zack doubt either. I wanted my raptors to draft him fit with the underdog everyone doubted us narrative too. Rooting for zack and memphis tho. Zack gonna be dominant
His per36 in preseason is 24/13.
Edey is a cheat code. Only thing preventing him from being the ultimate one is the 3pt shot. Give him 2-3 years and he may be there.
“In a league where centers are basically useless” brother 2 of the top 6 players in the league are centers including the best basketball player in the worldand Giannis might as well be one
Loving Kelel Ware kicking Edey's butt, are you guys doing a show comparing the matchup on Monday?????????
Zach can shoot free throws also. Santi Aldama is great with Edey.
Who is Deion and why should I give a shit about what he thinks? What are his NBA credentials?
So Aaron Torres knows nothing about bball???? Shocking.
I wish you guys would watch Memphis play more...because you guys' non-Edey takes about this team are way off lol
You sholl know what to say
Preach!
Dude get him off he said Ian 😂Jackson Deon get off can’t take u serious

Who is Ian Jackson lol.

Grizzlies to win finals at +4000 is a steal… yes I know they probably won’t win but you Cavs out when they make the playoffs
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Zach will dominate mark my words
Deon have you had a club sandwich yet?
Ware will be a better pro but it might take the 3rd year to prove that fact.
No need to over do it greg. We were already on to Deon a while back.
It's fine if Edey doesn't start.
Edey will start
I stopped paying attention at the 8:00 mark.
He can't shoot ? Yeah right😢
