It's inevitable, we should have a healthy roster eventually and our late season schedule is weak, so unless we make some significant moves our tank will be tested

Memphis has so much shooting off the bench!

If the Grizzlies were to pull it off, man that'd be a steal of a deal.

Their guard rotation is flooded and with the emergence of rookie wing Jaylen Wells (who was drafted in the 2nd round via the 2nds they got from Houston for sending Steven Adams in exchange for Oladipo) who's been killing it, Konchar and Kennard are expendable. Konchar has a team friendly deal for the next 2 years at over $6M/yr while Kennard is expiring.

DFS will be able to thrive similar to how he did in Dallas should the deal go through.

The Grizzlies are low key underrated when it comes to finding gems in the draft. Really impressive.

We can still be horrible if Masai has the courage to trade Poeltl!

We don't need to be the worst. A bottom 6 record gives us a good pick. There is no way Jakucionis, Fears, or another under the radar prospect goes before Bailey, Edgecombe, or another sure fire bust.

A bottom 5 is likely. Gives us a good chance to move up as well.

This doesn't really help the Nets tank. DLo's not a winner, but he's not trash either. Hate it for my fantasy team cuz he'll take away possessions from the 2 Cams (yes, I have both Thomas and Johnson lol).

But now this opens up a new trade partner for the Raps. Does Memphis have anything we want?
