Today was the most sensible conversation I have heard thus far. Clingan does not make us a Championship team, so a great role player like Knecht or a mid first round big makes the most sense. BTW there are rumblings that Kessler may be available…..
I’m betting the house on Edey. I don’t know why you don’t think he can be at least as good as Steven Adams
I'd love if we traded back in the draft and picked him up. The combine has proved that he is much more agile than you'd expect for his size and he won't be as much of a bait and switch target as much as people expect him to be.
I really hope we keep Luke. You need shooters in the NBA nowadsy.
Big fax. I think they will have to trade him because of the cap tho
Don’t need him
DaMichael saying anything to not bring up edey🤣
I believe he's saying that centers are a dime a dozen. In other words we shouldn't bypass talented 3pt shooting like Dalton.
I thought I want Cligan but I don't want no tender foot 7ft center that can not stay on the floor
Draft Knecht and give him Kennard minutes. If he's gone get Holland if he's there. If neither are there, keep Kennard trade back and take Ware.
I want Ron Holland
I think he will be a star!
I like Ron 🙌🏽
Clingan doesn't even have All Star potential to be trading up for him. We'd be giving up too much to get the equivalent of a player like Zubac from the Clippers. Stay at 9 and get Edey. He can do everything that Adams did for us PLUS HIT FREE THROWS.
You nailed it brother!
We absolutely should not pay Houston multiple first round picks for ANY PLAYER. Can't help them get better
It may end up being a huge mistake to get rid of Adams.
Cligion seems like a good in a couple of years guy. I am hoping for a 1st round pick that is not getting G league minutes
I'm sorry, I didn't totally understand, if we use the team option on Kennard we cannot trade him because we are in the first apron?
Just please!!! No more wings who can't shoot. I'm sick of hoping. Get a big or get a shooter. But either would probably best come from a trade for a guy you know can fill either or both of those needs.
Get rid of Marcus smart and rose stop bringing in old slow players and get some young guys who can pressure the ball. We let go of Adam’s and tyus jones for these old guys who can’t make a difference. Edey is better and Knet is a floor spreader besides bane I love them 2 besides ja morant and let’s see how deep we can push in the playoffs.
risking losing your guy for a future 2nd just to trade back a few spots isn’t worth it
Let’s Go ! Best podcast
Great to see Adams is 100% and ramping up. He has been given the all clear. Well done grizzlies. your window of winning the championship is closed. Getting rid of Adams was a huge mistake. Trading any of the top six players to get a rookie center is a mistake. The grizzlies do have a team that will make the playoffs without trading.
They had to pull Adams off the floor in crunch time and in many scenarios in the playoffs. We need at least a little bit of offense and maybe someone with a bit more foot speed.
Let's Go ahead and move into the luxury tax arena. This group of great players may never be on a Grizzly roster again. Who's the owner?😂
1. Ron Holland
2. K Ware
3. Dillingham
Either you guys have short memories or aren't serious about winning a championship. Trading back is the worst move for the Grizzlies right now, and Gabe Kuhn's poll on X confirms it was widely unpopular! We shouldn't forget about Anthony Davis destroying the Grizzlies' bigs last season. The sensible thing to do is draft Zach Edey and add a dependable veteran like Goga Bitadze for depth and flexibility. Addressing the center position should be the top offseason priority. Last year, the Grizzlies dominated on the offensive boards (top 10) but struggled defensively (third-lowest). Additionally, Ja Morant needs a big who can screen for him to protect his career. #GrindCity 🏀
Enough, keep it simple. Select Edey at nine. Sign Scottie Pippen jr and Lamar Stevenson. Let Zaire and Luke go.
I thinking these dudes don't know what there talking about we should take zack @9 clingan is going to be a bust zack and jjj who's stopping that we have a problem holding on to players we don't need we're right there!!
Yeah I'm thinking Cligan going to be a bust as well I like your take
I think edey is a beast .
/ i like Dalton knecht too hes the best scorer in this draft / and reed but he will go to high so we cant get him 😂 lets get edey and a good reserve point guard
We need to trade for Og anunoby
You talking about the guys that been hurt the last three years?
