Memphis are being tarnished lately

He came off the court winded after a bad offensive possession and then jogging back on D....but comes back into the game a few minutes later and gets two big buckets in a row, one on one. What a swing.

zion preparing himself well. ready to receive the torch from old man james when he declines in 2029

[Marchesk]

He looked much better out there today. Still a lot or rust and/or lack of conditioning in his game. But he was very involved anytime he was near the ball.

As for the Grizzlies, they're decent but they just don't look like they have the firepower. I'm liking Portland and Pelicans for 8th/9th play-in.

Correction: Memphis are being Dillon Brook’sed lately. It’s insane how much one role player can influence entirely how the team goes. The sad part is they need him to do what he does, and it looks like he’ll get to keep wildin out next year because Winslow ain’t that guy.

They go as he goes more than any other non-star I’ve ever seen. He leads the team in FGA and is so streaky/inconsistent and has a tendency to throw up awful shots. But Memphis is like 20-1 when he scores over 20 points.

His bubble games so far have been less than inspiring. It's not all his fault, Memphis needs him to do what he does, but he's just not good enough to deliver consistently. Memphis really needs a better wing player. He'd be much better in a 6th man/1st wing off the bench role. He does give great effort on defense and has a positive, fiery attitude though.

Brandon and Zion remind me a little of Kobe and Shaq. Give my Pelicans 3 more years, they'll win 2 Larry O'Brian Trophies in a row.

Lakers are not even the best team in California, the Clippers are. They'll regret taking orders from Le "GM" to trade B.I.
