Grizzlies promised Jarrell Martin?

From DraftExpress.com:

Martin elected to shut down his workouts after receiving a promise in the first round, which many believe came from Memphis.

Better hope someone like RHJ or Looney doesn't fall to #25, but I wouldn't hate this pick if RHJ/Looney/Wright/Hunter are gone.

Doubt it is us, he was promised to be chosen by a team between 15-20 and shut down his workouts after the LA visit, many think it was either the hawks or bucks.

That would be an bad pick if Martin should be the pick the Grizzlies are considering. Think this is a smoke screen and a poor attempt at such.

Watching Martin, he could be a Tobias Harris kind of player, if getting him makes the front office happy to have a faceup 4 then go for it, but trade Green for a shooter if you are going to do that because his game is too similar. His offensive game reminds me of a young Zach Randolph. But overall he is Paul Millsap incarnate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4fZavWjGgk&feature=player_embedded
