Marc Gasol: This Is The NBA, Not The G League

Marc Gasol was asked about his frustration level this season as the Memphis Grizzlies have one of the worst records in the NBA.

"It's pretty high," Gasol said. "It's pretty high."

Gasol was asked whether Wednesday's game against the Suns would be an opportunity to win.

"That'd be ideal just to show guys and give confidence to guys to show them that doing the right thing, it's important. It makes you win games. Winning is what this is about," Gasol said. "It's not about somebody playing well or getting, you know, your reps or developing players. Because we have a league for that. We have a league and a team here in Memphis to develop guys. This is the NBA, not the G League."

Sounds like he is afraid of getting big man competition.

Just kidding, but this is one of the games where on paper both teams want to loose, huge implication for the lottery.
For the fans of the respective teams, can you stomach your team winning?

Lose now, win later. Win now, lose later.

It's been time to move Marc for years. They had a chance to be really good, but they never went all in.

Time for him to go full-on Eric Bledsoe.
