Who would you rather build around, Shai/JDub/Chet or Ja/Bane/JJJ (alien.top)

Both young cores seem to be similar, with a lead superstar guard, a 2-way guard/forward, and a floor-spacing rim protector. The Grizzlies’ core have had more playoff success (due to being around longer) and JJJ also already has a DPOY, but they’ve also got more potential concerns (namely Ja’s off-court behavior and some of JJJ’s struggles like rebounding)

Better is so subjective. JJJ is a perennial DPOY candidate while Ja is a self-sabotaging mentally ill person. It’s not crazy for someone to say JJJ is better or you’d rather build around him.

That’s a dishonest characterization of Ja. You’re omitting that he’s a 2 time all star and 1 time all-NBA player lol.
