Your Memphis Grizzlies Basketball Thread III

[The Dog]

I was wrong, OG would have been a great fit for the Grizzs. Hell, any team, especially the way he is balling, tonight

 

[95 Vol Alum]

Terrible game for JJJ so far.

 

[tvolsfan]

This would be a really ugly loss.

 

[95 Vol Alum]

I take it all back Roddy! Lol

 

[95 Vol Alum]

Monster 4Q David Roddy

 

[YankeeVol]

Played like a 1st round pick tonight

 

[TBrown]

Let the record show I was leading the ROD-DY ROD-DY ROD-DY chants tonight

I was in Nashville attending the SEC tournament and missed the Roddy show.

Are we all on board Roddy entering the rotation for good now?

I think so.

So… rehab? PR stunt to avoid a suspension, genuine attempt to get help, or somewhere in between?

Probably somewhere in between with the former being the main reason.

That’s what I suspect, but we’ll see how long this lasts.

Long enough for the next "big" sports story to take center stage. That's all this is.

 

[tvolsfan]

Also, worth mentioning that while drinking has clearly been an issue here, only one of these stories seems to have anything to do with alcohol.

Not a PR stunt, imo. Not much NBA cred to be earned going to counseling.

I expect that if the NBA suspends him, he will be credited for time served as part of it. Call it avoidance if you will.

Hopefully it will help him improve his behavior and game. He definitely needs an image rehab.

 

[95 Vol Alum]

Dillon Brooks leads the team in shots so far. Heat check at 25% shooting.

 

[gordonr24]

Give Roddy the rest of Jitty’s minutes.

 

[95 Vol Alum]

Give Roddy the rest of Jitty’s minutes.

Or Brooks’

 

[YankeeVol]

I love seeing Brooks shoot 33% and act like he's the best player on the team

 

[95 Vol Alum]

Well, I fixed 2H Dillon. You’re welcome.

 

[n_huffhines]

Not sure if anybody has brought this up, but all this Ja trouble may work out in y'all's favor in the long run. It's very likely now that he doesn't receive all-NBA honors, which would mean he won't get the max $ his contract allows...$39m less or almost $8m/year in cap savings.

I know you guys are rightfully frustrated with the recent roster decisions, but I feel like you guys have been real hard on Roddy. I like the pick for the body alone. Just a funky dude that the league might not have answers for if he can learn to shoot.

If he plays Dallas every game, he’ll be an All-NBA candidate.
