This guy and Zion are such a huge waste of talent. They should have been a couple of legit superstars for the US who keeps trying to anoint any young player as the next heir apparent. Haven’t heard much about Edwards this year. Did he get anyone else pregnant?

Lol, it actually seems as if Donovan Mitchell is the highest rizz player from the US at the moment (plays a full 7.3 minutes less than Maxey per game and is shooting ~50/40/80).

I guess most people are assuming since the grizzly are clearly moving off him + traded Bane. Hes kinda just sour about the entire situation. Jimmy did the same nonsense last year but he got traded and I haven't heard anything bad from GSW since. I think the risk you take is he starts playing hard again and our team culture can keep the off court stuff in check.


Give it till the end of season, it usually takes 12 -18 months for Jimmy to eventually Jimmy the situation.


If they're winning, Jimmy likely won't Jimmy.


It hasn't officially started, but get the car starter going to warm the engine

He becomes extension eligible again next July. If GS does not want to extend him, that is when Jimmy will become usual Jimmy again, and find himself being moved to yet another team. It's a safe bet his GS exit won't end well.

Golden State has been one of the worst-run franchises since 2020. They really squandered Steph's final years, putting on a master class in asset mismanagement. They had a war chest of top picks and they wasted all of them, and then doubled down on this weird retool/development hybrid approach the last few years (while being one of the worst drafting and player development teams in the league) instead of going after another big name to pair with Steph.

They can still go after someone like AD, but it's at the point where Steph, Jimmy, and AD are so old/broken down now that I'm not sure they're even contenders anymore.

I think Ja in Minny could work, assuming they can create a compelling package (I know they traded like a decade of picks for Gobert). They have their superstar, but they still need a secondary scorer to push them over the edge.

His immaturity is showing. Either that or he about to be investigated by the FBI...Jontay Porter style.

If he really is dogging it... straight up disrespect to the fans and organization that signs his paychecks. Grow the F up.

I don't care how exciting his dunks are because that is literally the only thing he is good at. He doesn't defend. He is a horrible shooter. He is showing himself to be a very difficult person to deal with within the organization.

Say no to Ja. I want the Grizzlies to do worse than the Sixers did to Ben Simmons. Absolutely suspend his ass without pay indefinitely. The only way he makes his money is if he returns to the Grizzlies and is willing to play to win. I hate when guys intentionally sabotage their situation in order to force a trade.

He's been struggling this year, but he's definitely not Jontaying out there. Memphis as a whole has been struggling to adapt to their new offense & their last two games were against two of the best defenses in the league. Makes sense he would have some down games

I'm not buying it. He's better than these performances show. We know that. We're used to that.



Just watch how careless and lazy he suddenly is in this string of games. He's not giving his full effort on purpose. Watching this is reminding me of recently watching a video showing how Terry Rozier was purposefully dogging it in one of the games he is accused of rigging for his prop bets.

He's also doing the vince carter no dunking thing so he doesn't have that going for him either.

He chastised the media for asking him about his poor finishing. Something along the lines of "when i was attacking the rim and dunking everything i was reckless and injury prone, now that im being careful its a problem too? Shush". :)

This is rich coming from Butler. He would do the exact same and MUCH WORSE. It makes you really dislike the guy.

Apparently from Warriors pundits, he isn't referring to Kuminga here, regardless, people who are toxic tend to air out dirty laundry, which is Jimmy being Jimmy here. Still too early though, give it another 8-10 months before the situation turns into full Jimmy, but I'm surprised how early this iteration has started to show cracks.

This is what a reasonable person would say
