Meanwhile, we're still stuck with Reggie and Morris, no point guard and no backup center, while making the Grizzlies better. Make it make sense.

Reggie and Morris probably have no trade value, but damn I want them off the team.

Damn there goes Bamba... oh well, good pick up for LAL. Sure he's pumped.

As great of a shooter Luke is, he passes up WAAAAAAAAY too many shots when that's all he was out there for. Sends the offense in a scramble when he passes up looks

Good to see got three R2 picks back

I fully expect a backup center though - in the least a adequate buy out big

Things still don't make sense to me, unless there's another significant move coming.

I’d feel better if we get a big man now. Otherwise we’re just shuffling guards around for sake of moving.

I mean Bamba might actually try now, I was hoping we'd get him on the cheap.

I would be really scared to play the Lakers in a play-in game.

You said it man, definitely don’t want a part of them in a desperation game.

The Grizzlies aren't better with Kennard. He will be firmly planted on the bench in the playoffs. I would have used him in a different deal, but the guy wasn't going to be on the floor come playoff time.

Instead of consolidating we seem to be duplicating, so probably now we're going to trade for Markief.

Memphis will use him better since they have a coach and we have Lue.

Yup, you’re gonna get traded if you don’t play aggressive when the few times you’re healthy. I had high hopes for him here but yeah, time to move on.

Yeah, because Memphis has been lighting it up lately :roll:

You're just a contrarian for the sake of being one...lol

Time to get Christian Wood for Marcus Morris

Man did GSW crap the bed with that Wiseman pick. That was their chance to set the foundation for their post-Steph years.

Or Reggie I guess, that was something I read somewhere.

Getting EG and Bones would actually make a little bit of sense, if we did that. It would be a pretty questionable set of 'upgrades' though if that's all we did.

Less than thirty minutes left!!

Cmon get a big man! Are Reggie and Morris moving? I feel Bones and Gorden give similar roles although Gorden is shorter than Morris.

Speaking of who's lighting it up, EJ is a worse shooter, worse defender and older. It doesn't take a contrarian to see that this move doesn't make much sense.
