This team is annoying. Either lose, or comeback properly, stop forcing me to watch.

the Grizzlies hit on their top picks and many of the late ones.

we get a good month from Shake and a good game every year from Kork. Springer isn't a real person and two of our top picks forgot how to basketball.

Jo realized that Adams couldn't stay in front of him too late.

The bench couldn't step up were overwhelmed by the length and athleticism of the Grizzlies.

None of the big bulky bigs he can't back down can. You would think he would understand that.

Gasol, Lopez , Adam's those types Embiid can't bully ball but he's more fleet of foot. Which is what makes him a unique offensive big. Too bad he's clumsy with iffy shot selection.

I know people love Reed here but I am tired of him already.

Can we go back to playing Harrell?

And the worst part is who in their right mind would split the huge 40mil pay packet next year in a trade? There’s Hayward/Porzingis if you want to save a bit (most closely matches on sums) but that comes with their own headaches.

Just dumb roster decisions since Hinkie was let go. Too many bad coaches, bad luck with injuries and terrible development program. Yeah Jo and Maxey developed well, but a lot of that was the will of the players. I truly admire the Heat, Nuggets, Celtics, Raptors and Bucks.

They make smart decisions in these areas. you won't win a championship when you make so many mistakes. People put it on the players, but a lot of this is about how you build and making smart choices.

We turned Roco, Dario, Shamet, Ben Simmons and some picks into Jimmy Butler, James Harden and Tobias Harris.

I dont know if there’s a team in the last 3-4 years had better return in trades than we did.

We had been one of the most talented teams or/with the best highest NetRtg 5 man unit for 4 out of the last 5 years.

This season..

We’re more talented than the Bucks, Celtics and Warriors. Do we need more talent?

Just ask yourself.. why do we need to have more talent to move the needle compared to others?

Speaking about the grizzlies. They probably made one of the biggest mistake of all time in drafting Jaren Jackson over Luka Doncic. We haven’t passed up that big of a talent except when we passed up Giannis twice in 2013 over two guys who have 0 playing time.

Having Jrue here would have been great. He’s actually the perfect guy to play with Biid’s style of play

Talent is not the issue with this team.
Playing the right way and having the right motivation are the problem.
