Oof. Ja lost Memphis the chance of a last shot to tie the game because he couldn’t get open on the inbounds pass.

Pure Grizzlies basketball right there.

Butler in first half was unsolvable mystery for them, Curry in second.

But most frustrating part of a game was how they never gave Edey anything easy. They see miss match and throw some of worst passes possible to a 7'3 center. In 3rd and early in 4th he had some questionable decisions where he fumbled ball. How Green escaped with 6th foul ?

Jaren Jackson, dude, you are 6'10. You are guarded by 6'4 guards at time, and you shoot over them off balance? :banghead:

That guy plays like big on defense, on offense he plays like he is 5'5.

Man these contracts are becoming ridiculous. I can't wait for that player that says.... "Nah.... I'm good with X amount" so that the FO can build a stronger team around them and not just complain about how they have no support in the future.

Hahah... I know.... Tough to believe .... But hey you never know. Like... After my post rookie contract max deal .... If I was serious about winning.... I would rather take a cut and get a better supporting cast to win.

Yeah.... i have zero remorse for those that do that. Hoping that we find a happy balance. players that are like... man... i wanna win.... i've got generational wealth.... i want to keep my brother here..... let's make a deal and keep on winning.

I will gladly be on a losing NBA team with no hope of winning seriously for the next 2 years for 148 million dollars.

The Heat's pick is top 14 protected. If they win, they lose the pick.

And, they would have 2 picks in the draft to use as trade bait.
