I may be in the minority, but I say ride out this season and see how we perform in the playoffs. This team has incredible chemistry, and they aren't even full strength yet. I don't see anyone potentially traded here being that big of a needle mover to potentially mess up this team's chemistry.
@@mikkoss8704 Marcus smart and Luke Kennard have no place on this team .. that’s a wild $30 million dollar commitment when you see clear as day the upgrades who would love that money
If there’s an opportunity and good deal to improve the roster you do it every time. We have to many players and we definitely don’t need some of them. I’m all for trading this season to continue fixing our offense half court issue’s
YES‼️ YES‼️ YES‼️Trades are apart of evolving and clearing the deck‼️ Acquiring and Removing assets that can make your roster better and capable of competing is a MUST! Staying stagnant and drowning in quicksand due to not changing the frequency of your team can lead to an unimproved roster. Improving your growth and adding improved talent around your core is essential to competing for the future‼️ PERIOD! If you anticipate and prepare for change you dont become a victim of it‼️🥂
If we can give the nets some combo Vince/Luke/Marcus and no more than 2 FRPs, we should do it. I heard they want a ridiculous haul for him and i think some teams may outbud us
Jaylen Brown Anthony Edwards and SGA were all terrorizing from the midrange in the playoffs last year.. give Brandon Ingram that chance cuz he is better than all of them from the elbow
I feel like that can be Bane though. I think if we getting a trade, it has to be a 3 and D guy. we don't need more scorers, just better shooters and who wouldn't want better defenders. And we got young players like Wells and GG who can develop their mid range game too
@@_lynchy_19 not like Brandon’s that’s a rare mid range game with a 7’3 wingspan.. rather take the cheat code and let Vince play the defense.. ingram still 27yrs old he can develop better defense with a good team culture
Brandon Ingram is a better scorer yes. But he doesn’t fit with our current core. He won’t elevate Ja/Jaren. And also he only has 1 year left on his deal and is not guaranteed to re-sign. I’m good on Ingram.
@ he elevates have by being someone who can who the ball in the post and wait for him to cut.. he elevate jaren cuz he can trump it down to him and his length helps the whole team.. We finna be doggin teams like the warriors did. U over thinkin it like he never locked in defensively
No need for a trade. The team is starting to gel with the new offense and the chemistry is good. I’d be open to listen to offers but unless it’s the best deal, no need to trade just to make a trade
No trade. We just need to ride it out. Scouted Cam Johnson in last nights game and I feel good with what we’ve got. Keep developing Jake and Jaylen at the wing. GG will be back and we have a rebounding big with Edey. I just like our young guys over anything that’s out there.
Do the Grizzlies need a trade? Only if they are actively trying to win a championship this season. Cam Johnson is exactly what this team needs, you go all in to get him (minus GG).
My bet would be get Dorian Finney-Smith for Luke, Konchar (we get rid of his contract) and to make them swallow a 2nd round. We need a forward to defend big guards/forwards kind of Luka Doncic, Jalen Williams,etc.
Need? No! Should they consider all options to make the team better? Yes. But we should not give up a bunch of young players or really anybody outside of Luke, Kitty, or Smart. And that may not get us anything of worth lol
A Jimmy Butler trade????? HELL NO. But a Cam Johnson addition would be kinda interesting depending on what we would have to give up to get him. But I say don't change a think.
@@BB.WaWa. we gon look back and say did we really pick Harrison Barnes over kd?.. ingram has always had to avg 20ppg if he isn’t required to carry such a load his efficiency can be off the charts.. ultimate mismatch for Ja to use at will
The best Grizzlies team ever is today's Grizzlies team because of Ja Morant. Z-Bo was the grit... and Allen was the grid. But Ja Morant is much much more special.
You should be able to just package Smart and Kennard for Cam Johnson easily but I’m telling you Brandon Ingram would be better for when 3 pointers stop falling in the playoffs.. live by the 3..
Before starting the video: it'd be irresponsible to not take at least a look at what's out there and can be done. However, making a trade per se isn't necessary.
When the game slows down and you need to score in the half court.. Brandon Ingram is way better than Cam Johnson.. you can’t depend on 3s in the playoffs and BI is a proven midrange scorer
@ I see what you’re saying but they gotta depend on Marcus Smart.. I’d rather that be Ingram.. smart konchar and Kennard don’t bring anything that Vince can’t
Marcus is a natural point guard eating off Pippen.. would you rather have him or Brandon Ingram on the wing .. Marcus Smart and Kennard can’t even finish games and the take up 30 million
You gotta be brandon ingrams agent ??? Dude is ball dominant, a bad defender, and he is always hurt! He aint a good fit for the Grizz. And the last reason this trade won't go thru is because we're in the same division. The Pelicans aint trying to help the Grizz win a ring just for cap space. They will want try to fleece the Grizz for either 1 of Santi/Vince/Gg. None of whom we should trade. Goofy trade idea
@tristannutall2129 tony allen is best suited to guard big guards and forwards. Not jitterbug guards like Ja. Also, rules now are different than they were then
@@ek1743Tony Allen was suited to guard anybody that’s why Steph and Russ had a hard time 😂😂. Even now Tony would be good and Jaren said they were using the rules for back then. Which honestly where somewhat the same as now
@@ek1743🤣🤣 he average 25 on the Grizzlies not when Allen was guarding him there a difference. Just like the narrative LeBron average 40 against Andre but the actual numbers where he average less and shot 10% worst when guarded by AI stop it 😂😂.

Dallas had this exact same conversation last year and went and got Gafford and PJ and found themselves in the finals
@@larryhubbard1570 clippers had the exact same discussion last year and kept PJ and Bones and went from 1st seed to 4th and a horrible playoffs
Luke gotta go but I still see a Marcus fit.
No trades right now
Agreed 100%!
Yes dmike, the current grizz team is the best we've ever had. We just have to wait and see how far we go in the playoffs

No we should give it one pick and Vince and Marcus for cam none more none less that’s actually too much for him
They want more than 1 pick@@kendonnichols8547
Yes herb Jones or cam Johnson coming off the branch would be awesome
Naw those are starters

Still big questions about Jenkins benching starters with weak rotations getting outcoached against playoff caliber teams.
No one will want Laravia, Aldama or G Jackson. Get it?
No trade! So hype about this squad!

Beginning to wonder if Jenkins is going to play Edey? Hope he's not treated like Loften keeping Edey on the bench?
He won't be he's the 9th pick so he will definitely get time but if our goal is winning then it's not always the best decision to play him
Marcus Smart, Luka Kennard and John Konchar. 2 2nd round picks for Brandon Ingram $36m matched
no defence rather have cam johnson who can shoot and isnt ball agressive

This is the first comment that I agree with you on. You can't go wrong with Cam or Ingram for Smart & Kennard.
Igram to injury prone cam spacing alone will be great

Go Grizzlies
Stand pat
Grizzlies should trade Marcus Smart if Taylor Jenkins is not going to start one of the top defensive players in the NBA?
He's coming off the bench because he doesn't fit with the starting lineup
He coming off the bench cuz he sorry
1. Ja
2. Marc
3. Zbo
4. Jaren
5. Pau
Jaren will end his career as the second best Grizzly for sure tho
Ja is not the best Grizzly. He’s just more popular than the rest he’s not even the best on this current team
WE DON'T NEED INGRAM. CAM JHONSON IS THE ANSWER IN MEMPHIS GRIZZLIES 💪💯🔥👀.
