We need a 5 someone to rebound,set picks, and catch lobs.We have a 4 with J Jackson, Brandon Clark,Santi Aldama, and also GG Can play the 4 if needed.I wouldn't mind if we get 2 bigs.1 in the draft and 1 in free agency.
I've gone back and forth and have a list of 10 or so 1st and 2nd round guys I like, lol. But I'm with your line of thinking: if Holland is there at 9, take him. Don't waste the 9th pick on a big, acquire a vet wing and big through free agency.
A nightmare would be the Grizzlies trying to go the cheap route, like you mentioned, and then drafting Cody Williams. I saw one comp for him that said shades of Ziaire. 😨
Tyler Smith or DaRon Holmes! I would love Beef Stew here he fits very nicely. Love the content man! My favorite Grizzlies show!
Smith and Holmes both seem really promising.
Appreciate you watching!
Grizz don’t want BC playing he just got back and no need to put extra strain on his legs.
I've come around on the positional scarcity argument for getting Holland, but the two things that worry me are 1) the track record of the first 2 yrs of almost every Ignite player, and 2) the assumed crunch on GG's minutes, who's likely better positioned to help us in that window anyway
anyone we take has a low probability of stepping up and helping right away. I don't mind the overlap of GG and Ron theoretically cause i think they can both play 2-4, and the more the merrier. but i hear you
I could definitely see Holland II being the pick for the Grizzlies at 9 and tbh Smart for Lopez is not A bad trade at all I would look into that trade if I was in the Grizzlies FO
I also think acquiring a tall wing who can defend, and preferably shoot, will be our top priority next season. They will probably try starting Smart. I'm not sure it's gonna quite work. And when they realize that, they will move Smart to the bench and look for a good wing to start. Maybe a Deandre Hunter, as you said. I'd also be really interested in Cam Johnson.
oh i have an unhealthy interest in cam johnson
These next two years do feel like the window is fully open to get a 🏆. Glad you said "see what you have in this roster to start the season". In poker terms, end of season was the flop, draft will be the turn, free agency is fourth Street and the trade deadline will be the river. 😂
Draft Edey at 9
Restructure Luke's contract
Sign a starting MLE center in free agency
Maybe that wing with size.
I'm also ok with trades as long as we get bigger up front, sharper shooting while maintaining defensiveness
i like your poker metaphor but the turn and 4th street are the same thing!
@@grizzliespod 🤣
The experts drafted Zaire, hence I am worried
win some you lose some. ziaire didn't develop. Bane, Clarke, GG Jackson and Vince Williams did
@@grizzliespod Ziare too focused on chasing women
On Cody Williams being a wing. I've heard of boneless wings but never meatless😂
You just said you wantd a wing with size who can score. Then why mention Finnie Smith? Is it a guy who can score or not? We already have big wings who can't score consistently.
All we need is Edey
Your idea of Okungwu is way better than Capella. In fact I would take him over every other big that you mentioned.
I’ve consistently mentioned him as one of my favorite targets
The Hawks extended Okungwu a while back. My thoughts are that the Hawks will keep him and move off Capela as planned since last season.
Why do you like trading shooters for non shooter when grizzlies need shooting
because of positional need. luke kennard playing takes minutes away from ja, desmond, marcus, and vince. dorian finney smith can play alongside ja/des/marcus without sacrificing defense
Why not trade Ziare Williams, Santi Aldama, and John Konchar plus picks for Dorian Finney-Smith and Day'ron Sharpe instead of trading a shooter that the grizzlies also desperately need in Luke Kennard? Everyone keeps acting like floor spacing is not an issue for our team too.
That’s a creative salary match, I personally would prefer another season of Santi over Luke
I also may be stubborn but I don’t think the grizzlies desperately need Luke Kennard with ja, des, Marcus and Vince
@@grizzliespod yea the salaries are weird for sure but idk I just feel like having that extra floor spacer would help in the playoffs but I do understand where you’re coming from
Let's start with. 1. Dayron sharp is undersized. Whats the difference between him and Trey Jemison
2. Dfs is a good player but is only really a better defender than Santi at this stage. 3. Luke is our best shooter.
@@ek1743 that’s the whole point lol Dfs does the same things Santi does but with better defense. Santi doesn’t even seem to care on the defensive ends sometimes. Plus Day’ron sharpe is better than Trey Jamison in my opinion
And then smart for Lopez?!?! Lopez will turn 37 YEARS OLD NEXT SEASON?!?!? No way does he last two seasons! Smart has 7 years left and still good basketball.
I just do not understand your logic? It’s so wild and dramatic in its undervaluation of Memphis players and odd overvaluation of other players
Ja, bane, Jaren are average 25 years old. GG, Vince, Clarke, kennard average about the same. The Grizzlies have a much longer horizon than 2 years. Actually, they are too young still.
I know you are 10x smarter as it pertains to basketball than I, but i always hear your takes on trades and am left dumbfounded.
U know that you have to score don't you
No way on Stewart, what do you want a trouble maker and hot head.
He doesn't get into trouble off the court. Being on a bad team can also do that to a player. Plus the Grizzlies could use some more toughness on the team.
does he have any off-court issues? is he more of a hot head than dillon brooks?
Ron Holland is another dude that can't shoot.I would take Knect or Edey.
What about Miles Bridges ? 5:00
I wouldn't want his personnel this team. I would rather he stayed out of the league, actually.
@@LUC4Z3 your opinion has nothing to do with on the court production unfortunately.
@@GenoGwap Yeah, because we all know off the court issues would never affect the Grizzlies, right? 😂
@@LUC4Z3 embrace it don’t run from it. You can’t change the past but you can learn from it and make a better future.
@@GenoGwap Bro, he beat his wife. You shouldn't embrace that. lol
U guys aren't ever going to win you have one superstar and never will win with bane and Jackson
Dorian smith is terrible! How on earth would you value Kennard and a first round pick to be good for us?!?!?!?
I just don’t understand your value of grizzlies players? You are chronically underrating grizzlies player value.
i didn't say to trade a 1st rounder for DFS, although apparently that is what our front office offered for him last season
which grizzlies players am i chronically underrating? DFS has more trade value than Kennard
