Amazing deal and great signing for Memphis but they still can't shoot.

Memphis gets an A+ with honors, a full scholarship and all the cake in the kingdom for this signing.

This is what, a 4 mil contract post cap increase?

Awesome signing for the Grizzlies. Wright should be a great fit. He should also fire his agent.

they need a good spot up wing shooter....this is a good back up for gasol and he gives them a bit of speed..can they get somebody like jterry from houston or mario chalmers from heat to help them shoot from the outside..ive seen too many games where memphis ,like the bulls go on offensive droughts...

good signing, but this doesn't really do anything in terms of "pushing over the top"
Memphis needs wing scorers, and badly

It's a good deal, but Memphis is going nowhere without a great wing scorer.

It's an okay deal for Brandan Wright. I think his time in Boston and Phoenix kind of exposed him as a "system" player for the Mavs. He had been unbelievable in the previous 2 seasons for Dallas, ranking near the top of the league in PER. He was the poster boy for stats geeks everywhere. Had he been given the opportunity to play out his final season in Dallas, he would've been able to command a much bigger salary in free agency.

But his time outside of Dallas exposed him a bit. I think that Rondo trade ended up costing Brandan Wright a lot of money. He could've gotten 32M/4 easy.

6mil per? Bargain. One of the best value signings so far.

Both him and Ellis on extremely good deals.
These two Ex warriors need to fire their agents :lol:

As long as they have Gasol and Zbo, they have got to get guys to spread the floor. While I like Brandan Wright, they should first spend their money on guys who can shoot.

Why didn't they go after Bellinelli?

Who's their gm? Seriously, they've needed shooting for like five years.

Very good pickup for us.
Now we need a deep bomber and we are basically set.
