Lol. Don't worry. Tok is going to lock the thread up. And I don't care if he does or he don't. The thread is not that serious to me.

Why does it bother you sold that I created a thread for this? Especially with all the crappy threads that are out there right now. I think you just need to chill out.

What's fake about it? The Grizzlies acknowledge that they were thinking about signing him. then we get a report that says that the Grizzlies were going to sign him. then we get another report saying that the Grizzlies aren't going to sign him. To me that means that Austin Rivers was probably going to sign with the Grizzlies but what made him not.

Who's the heartbreaker?

Oh no we suck again????

The grizzlies definitely need to consolidate for an offensive talent. Preferably at the shooting guard spot. Jam for Fournier would be a good trade in my opinion.

I've said this many times.

This illustrates how much pressure Mike is under to get the grizzlies competitive. All you Jaren lovers can see first hand that he is not the answer right now. Good night fellas. I can't watch Curry's dumb smirk anymore.

I can't wait to see Jevon Cater playing tonight. Mike is out so Jevon is definitely going to get some burn.

The Mike and Marc picknroll is good, don't get me wrong, but Marc just isn't consistent enough for it to be our primary offense. The grizzlies are 26th in offense right now for a reason. When Marc is on, it looks great, but he just doesn't do it consistently enough to warrant that responsibility anymore. Marc is a good third wheel on the offensive side. And before anybody screams Jaren. Jaren can't really carry that kid of load. In fact, other than a few games here and there, Jaren's offense is not that impactful to the outcome of the game. I also think that the grizzlies has to replace Garrett Temple in the starting lineup. The guy is too poor on offense and it hurts the team. Also, playing Mike off the ball is all well and good, but Shelvin is not the answer. He is good as a back up point, but anything more than that and he is struggling. The other problem is that the grizzlies aren't going to find that guy in free agency next year either. The only guy that would make a difference is Klay and he isn't coming to Memphis. So I really feel that the grizzlies need to kick the tires on Javon and see if he can do it. Or beyond that, Dillion as a sg, when he comes back. The grizzlies need to find another 20 point perimeter scorer and we have to do it with the players we got. So that means either Jevon or Dillon.

Mike has been downgraded to questionable with a hamstring injury.

I look at it a different way of course. I just think the Grizzlies are in a great place. They are not going to win every game and they may not even win even majority of the games. the reason the Grizzlies are winning is because they're leaning so much on veteran and older players. However that's only going to take you so far. Especially when you don't have a lot of offensive Talent. The future of this team depends on jeran Jevon and Dillon Brooks. What worries me is that we really do need to be trying to build around those three guys and Mike and Marc and Kyle Anderson. Is JB Bickerstaff the guy for the job, I don't know because he's more interested in winning games and hoping the young guys just progress. I really don't know what I want out of everything but I do think that the grizzly should not box jeren in to a zbo role. I think the Grizzlies do need to overhaul their offense a little bit because it's way too predictable, but I absolutely have no idea how to do it.

All I know is for the last 3 years that Zbo was here all I heard was how zbo's post ups were killing this team? Your going to tell me now that that didn't happen? I mean every day somebody was bellyaching about zbo's 1 on 5 routine. The grizzlies need perimeter shooters to be successful. Jaren has a lot of talent, but that doesn't mean that he can be the prime scorer on this team. The grizzlies problem is that they need a player who is at least as good potentially as Mike. Hopefully we found that guy in Jevon and Dillon once he comes back, but again this team is a work in progress. The grizzlies have been getting by with Mike and Marc, but they are going going to truly get better once Jaren, Jevon and Dillon all improve.

The previous comment about throwing the ball to Jaren and Zach being a blackhole was sarcasm. I was pointing out y'all's points of view which seems to have changed since the recipient is now Jaren and not zbo. lol My issue with Jaren has nothing to do with his style of play, but with the fact that people want the entire organization to basically cater to what is best for Jaren alone (and importantly ***get this part of it) only after roughly 30 games. The kid isn't ready to have the keys handed to him. I also don't like that he is constantly complaining to the refs like he's Lebron or something. The kid needs to learn some technique from Jevon who came in and undressed harden and paul with no whistles being called.

I'd be okay if you guys would quit bellyaching about Jaren every single game. Seriously. Every game I have to hear about something that is affecting this kid in y 'all's minds.
