Its like a competition between the Grizzlies and the Clippers.

The Grizzlies are going after former talents, while the Clippers are stocking up (and eventually cutting) complete nobodies. Alex Acker, Cheikh Samb, and Hassan Adams.

The Grizzlies will out duel LAC! HA!

Can we add Foyle and Wilks now?

I don't see how Mihm is that bad though.

Foyle, maybe. Wilks, no. Not as former talents.


On a sidenote, What the Hell Happened to Marko Jaric? I mean I realize he wasn't ever that great, but he was a pretty good player. This year he can't do anything. I realize the Grizzlies have a lot of talent on the perimeter, but I at least figured he would get something like 6 points and 3 assists a game.

Oh no. Not as former talents, but as nothing more than an expiring contract for us this year. Everyone of the people on that list are players we acquired this season for money purposes only. Buckner will be added eventually.

We'll see about Jaric. Now that Lowry is gone he should get more consistent PT.

He should be kept. Mihm is not a good center for a triangle offense. Hes a solid backup type who actually wound up on a team that makes a lot of sense for him.

Injuries have hurt of late, but if he can get his form back this could be a very solid move for the Grizzlies. He is only 29 years old after all.

Man I wish I was him. Imagine sleeping beside that every night. I'd probably suck too.

Yeah but he was still a decent player up until this season.

Maybe Lima is taking most of his energy.

Hell, if I was him, I'd quit basketball altogether.

I recently heard about their secret Valentine's Day marriage. Kudos to him for landing what seems to be a very nice girl.

As for his basketball game, I'm sure he will get some playing time now that Lowry is gone- as people have said. If he gets his confidence back in his shot, he should be fine and crack the rotation at some point.

Return to Memphis Grizzlies
