@TeemuSel8nne At this stage of tourney and game there is literally only one type of penalty that gets called every time: high sticking. Can was better and got what it deserved.

Beating greatest hockey country in the world and Canadian referees same night is impossible I guess… absolutely embarrassing penalty 90 seconds to go in Olympic semifinal.. what a joke🤬

@DougyBucketz @mollyhannahm Coaches dont teach players during games. Teaching part happens in training.
English
@MikaJV @mollyhannahm Sure, but you can still do basic coaching things, and actually try and teach the game of basketball. This is t the only game that this has been an issue. Issalo isn’t the guy for this job.
English
tanking is so funny. like i just stayed up til midnight for my silly little team to be left in the dust as they scramble on the last possession while the coach watches them like “lol good luck ❤️”
English
@DougyBucketz @mollyhannahm Tanking is not coaches decision, it is up to front office.
English
@mollyhannahm This guy can not be the coach next season

@grizz_vols @CREAMYCOLE You have your right to have an opinion, of course. But let me ask you this: how Grizzlies training staff got WC Jr injured in a road game? What they did wrong there? If you think this a moment, maybe you understand that there is randomness and coincidences in sports.
English
@MikaJV @CREAMYCOLE I just don’t believe in coincidences..I’m not sure about Clayton’s injury history but I don’t think he’s been injury prone and soon as we puts on a grizz jersey he gets hurt…I have zero faith in the training staff given the grizzlies injury issues. Can’t be just “bad luck”
English
@averyyyy_w @MaskedMem12 Ok, so if this is the logic, then they traded Jitty for him. I dont give a shit about JJJ or else 🤝
English
@MikaJV @MaskedMem12 Yea I know that but I was just referring to the player bro mentioned. I couldn’t care less about any of the other players brought back for Jaren. No need to be hostile brodie.
English
@grizz_vols @CREAMYCOLE I said Grizzlies training staff has nothing to do with WC Jr injury.
And what comes to training staffs generally and Grizzlies staff particularly, I don’t know man. Very hard to believe that there is no knowhow in NBA level. It is not rocket science.
English
@MikaJV @CREAMYCOLE This an over arching statement..ever heard of a common denominator?? The reason we’ve been the most injured team the past 3 years in a row must just be bad luck then
English
@grizz_vols @CREAMYCOLE Grizzlies training staff has absolutely nothing to do with Walter Clayton Jr injury.
English
@MikaJV @CREAMYCOLE Yep as someone that’s watched every game since 2009 I can confidently say that. Whats your opinion Mika? Or do you just say other ppls takes are bad without actually having an opinion of your own?
English
@averyyyy_w @MaskedMem12 Think harder. Was there any other players or assets involved?
English
@averyyyy_w @MaskedMem12 Obviously you can’t count. Or read. Or think.
English
@grizz_vols @CREAMYCOLE Wonderful take. You really thought this through before you posted?
English
@CREAMYCOLE Honest to god the grizzlies have the worst training staff in the history of the nba
English
@Isaac__NBA Ofc it is real. Are you slow? In a minute they traded JJJ even my grandma realised they are rebuilding.
English
Interested to see the injury report tonight. I imagine they’ll probably switch out SP Jr. (return injury management) or some 🐂 💩 for Ty Jerome. Hendricks will be swapped for Slo Mo. if Aldama is back GG or OMax will probably be out. The tank is real!

@SpacesGrizzlies What a beautiful concept. You found out this by yourself or did you read it from somewhere?
English
That’s the “organizational direction” no more dominant scorers
Xavier Dotson@ZaytimeTakes
Coward has to been more aggressive as a scorer. He focus on the being a system player so far. Just drop buckets bro.
English
@ESimmons79441 Of course they want to win. Winning just happens to be much more than just battle of willpowers.
English
I can tell we have some guys on the Memphis Grizzlies that wanna win, but ZK is making it extremely difficult to. #GrindCity
English
This type of basketball isn’t gonna help develop them at all
They have no big man
And they need to know a pecking order
Playoff MEM@PlayoffMem
Thoughts?
English
@gbaby901251 @GrizzHooping Oh really? Well that is a brilliant idea. How is it possible that nobody has invented this before?
I wish people would think even 2 seconds before writing these golden nuggets.
English
@GrizzHooping They are trying to lower player stats so they won't have to pay big star money
English
How some of you have been okay with this is strange. I understand we’re not trying to win rn but it’s been all year. We wont have a star again as long as he’s coach, because they won’t play enough to put up stats and we won’t compete with teams that play their best players more.
GrizzbeHooping@GrizzHooping
This is UNACCEPTABLE Kleiman needs to intervene because this has gone on way too long. We are trying to develop our young core and they aren’t being given the chance. TI needs to stop treating this like Euroleague and accept that some players should get more minutes than others!
English
What I was told GG was part of potential Ja Morant trade to sweeten the return for the Grizzlies. I couldn’t do nothing, but shake my head. If Ja was traded, GG was gone too.
English
@JoeMullinax Usually I disagree with mr. Mullinax but this time I agree 100%. FO should have get rid of Ja years ago when problems started but his star was still bright. There really is nothing left now. And will never be. Ja is not a vet who leads young team through rebuild.
English
He has not played seven consecutive games in almost three seasons. It is not dramatic. It is precedent and fact. Why, if you hope to trade him later, would you hope that all the evidence from the past would magically disappear?
Grizz Nation@GrizznessTime
@JoeMullinax If he stays… 1) Yes he can. Stop being so dramatic. 2) It can. Your absolutes are dramatic. 3) He has become close with these guys. This is overblown. This notion of co-dependency on Jaren is exaggerated. 4) He doesn’t want to be traded so… it’s one or the other.
English
@sammmjack @JoeMullinax almost 1M/week is not ok if you are a sulking, injury prone man child who is not playing.
English
@JoeMullinax If he isn’t happy and doesn’t play, ok we are in the same spot. I don’t see the urgency you are describing.
English
1. He can't play if they're going to try to trade him again this summer.
2. His value will not improve.
3. No one aside from Clarke that he came in with is left.
4. He almost certainly will not be invested in what the team that publicly wanted to trade him will be doing.
corpse pose@sammmjack
@JoeMullinax There’s no downside to keeping him. Financially it’s not a big deal and whatever new timeline we are on is still the new timeline
English
@march7_mar @ESimmons79441 There really is not much else to do because of salary cap. You can´t keep all your "stars" if they demand max contracts. And who is the championship caliber superstar who comes to Memphis another route than drafting?
English
@MikaJV @ESimmons79441 FO has been saying that for 6 years!! They just want to draft new and roll out the old.
English
Hope the Grizzlies can live with fans not coming to the games if and when Ja Morant is traded today or tomorrow. #GrindCity
English
The Grizzlies organization had plenty of opportunities to build a championship level team by surround Ja, Jaren, and Bane with vets that can help the players take the next step and they didn't. Remember when these genuises were saying that the priority was resigning Luke Kennard
