Your Memphis Grizzlies Basketball Thread III

Clingan would help D1. Not sold on the ceiling but he's a good complement to Trip

He may help in 3 years and by then, the window will be potentially closed.

Rookies don’t have meaningful impacts for teams with championship aspirations.

I don’t doubt Clingan can be a serviceable NBA center but the Grizz don’t have 3 years to wait.

What yall think about Sheppard/Dillingham if they are there at 7 or 8?

I’m drafting Knecht as a replacement for Kennard in that slot. He’s the one rookie that can contribute rotational minutes almost immediately and the most NBA ready.

My preference is to package the pick for a big or another vet. The Grizz don’t really need any more rookies.

Idk.. he won’t be an “impact player” but I think he can give you those 18-20 min immediately

Walker Kessler did. He doesn't have to be great. He just needs to rebound, screen, and defend the bully bigs for low 20s mins a night...

Orange Mound block parties are waaaaay different than the block parties I’ve attended.

Maybe we can trade smart and a first for Tyus?

Yuta declining his option is nice. I didn’t expect that. Believe we have 2 roster spots now.

Going home isn't he? Thought I saw something about that on Twitter

yup: Former Suns Player Intends to Leave NBA

Stevens was the only FA, TO on Kennard I believe

Traffic going to get stupid near me. Wish it was closer to Jackson. Odd that the company hasn’t announced as well.

It’s going to bring crime? I believe that’s just a function of proximity to Memphis not a Bucees. Not sure what you are saying.

Therefore statistically more crime

The Memphis NWS is being blasted all over social media this morning.

The Memphis NWS is being blasted all over social media this morning.

Why?

Legitimate question since not on FB

 

[TBrown]

I don’t know either but.. The storm did not remotely resemble the hype, at least at my home.

Apparently they didn’t issue some tornado warnings that “should’ve” been issued.

Namely one that went over Millington.

Conditions apparently were worse near Millington than Arlington, at least based on my observations. I slept through all of it.

They issued a severe thunderstorm warning with considerable damage tag. Unless there was actually a tornado on the ground, they gave the right warning....

Does not appear the destructive damage tag threshold was met...
