NBA - Main

any nba team with this many injured starters would be in the same predicament. like wth?

I don’t think I’ve seen a single player sink a contender more than Ja Morant. Maybe Ron Artest during the Malice at the Palace is comparable but that was a single moment of insanity. Ja’s fuckup was over multiple chances. It’s nuts how he just shit last year and this year away. Even with the injuries, Ja would likely have been able to keep them afloat but they’re almost too far behind already. I would be so furious that if I was a Grizz fan. You only get so many chances to be a true contender.

Man Dillon was the MVP of this team

Man, I thought this team was better without Ja according to /r/nba

Why is Derrick Rose not bringing a mentality that influences these guys.

That's my tank commander, he's finally amongst his peers. 😤

Celtics always trading guys that have been loyal to them to get next big star. Avery Bradley , IT, smart, grant will….

this man is not used to losing.

If anyone didn’t believe in the basketball gods or karma this Grizzlies team is proving them totally wrong

From the comments in here, I don’t think people realize how injured the Grizzlies are on top of not having Ja.

Remember last year when they had Ja but lost Steven Adams and lost 6 out of 7?

Well yeah they’re missing him, his backup Xavier Tillman, Brandon Clarke, Luke Kennard, and Marcus Smart.

3 starters and 3 backups. 6 of their top 10.

Boston sent his ass to Azkaban 😭

Remember just last year how to grizz played way better without Ja and just one year later everything is switched and it’s mainly the same team. So weird.

Honestly I hate when guys do this. If you’re a real leader then lead by example. If you’re on a shit team and you’re playing like shit, then the yelling just comes across like passing the buck to the people around you.

I like Smart but the fact is he just isn’t good enough to be treating other guys like this.

I guarantee if someone else calls him out on his bullshit late game shot attempts like this he freaks the fuck out.

As a C's fan (and Smart was my favourite Celtic) it saddens me to see him struggle, and to be on a listless team. Maybe things will change when Ja comes back, but that is a deep hole to come out of.

Marcus gives everything and to see others not doing the same must be frustrating for him.

Hope he comes back to the Cs.

The season is already over

It's about setting a culture for next season.

They should get rid of JJJ for a haul

He's a KAT type player

Not a winner

Reminds me of when Festus Ezeli tried to give the blazers a motivational halftime speech and CJ McCollum told him to shut his street clothes wearing ass up.

Glad Marcus ain't on my team no more.

Wannabe leader, attention seeker, drama queen.

He found his level in Memphis.

Trade him to Bucks please, end his suffering.

What happen to "we alright in the west". Hopefully Steven Adams realizes how trash the grizzlies are and leaves. I would not want to be associated with a team that top player has been suspended twice.

"Mother fuckers it's not that hard! If a guy makes contact with you, no matter how small, you need to throw your entire body into the floor like you got shot with a .50 caliber rifle! Don't forget to twist your face up like you just suffered a career ending injury. How many times do I have to show you guys this!"

I feel for him. He’s a baller, DPOY, and got heart. I wanted him to stay in Boston but I damn sure didn’t want him to be in Memphis if he was going to be moved. That team is just too young and doesn’t get it but hopefully he can help change that and they can have some hope of better nights when Ja comes back.

Albeit a weak one, the Grizz were the #2 seed in the West last season, just saying

You’d think with the two most recent DPOYs they’d get some stops 🤔

I’m a big fan of Marcus from his Oklahoma State days but damn he’s on a bad team now and he never getting a ring

As much as I didn't like Marcus Smart on the Celtics, his passion for the game can not be denied. Dude's probably suffering in Memphis with these bums.

Basketball is like sumo wrestling for tall ppl. Except, you can actually follow a regiment to get sumobese, can’t really do much abt your height.

Someone show Marcus “Walking in Memphis” it’ll make his day better. (Massive sarcasm I actually hate that song so much)

"I'm not here to babysit"

lmao

Without Morant it’s like the Grizzlies just aren’t gunslingers anymore

breaks my heart man. sent our loyalest bro to purgatory.

Memphis should just complete the circle and trade Smart to Milwaukee. He would start day one.
