We traded Darrel Arthur for kosta koufas.

We drafted a shittier version of TA. At least TA could shoot in college...this dude can't.

We drafted a dude who will never leave France because he sucks.

Everyone's thoughts exactly. Some nba dudes compared him to TA. We have a TA, we need someone who can make a jumpshot.

Our most consistent midrange guy is a giant, hairy center and occasionally ZBo.

Our best "jump shooters" can't even jump and that makes me sad.

Our 3 jumps and shoots the ball on the descent all retarded like.


Yeah. I thought the same thing last year when they drafted Wroten.

I guess they are hoping Q-Pon can develop into a starter or want to keep Bayless around to play the 2.

I just think we need someone who can play that 3-4 range and occasionally knock down some mid-range and 3's, but doesn't require the touches Rudy did.

Maybe they think now with Lionel out of the picture Austin Daye can finally get some PT and he can be that guy I described. He has a good stroke for sure.

I know. I love him, but he's taking up a lot of money. These are just rumors I have heard though.

ZBo is like Hollins. We all love him, but no one else would really want him.

And I think that's awesome.

The good news is ZBo's game is relatively low impact, and he's made it known that he won't leave memphis.

Man Zbo is like the foundation of the Grizz.. you really think he could be gone?



I think the foundation now is Marc Gasol and Conley. I would love to keep Z-Bo around, but I don't think we can really afford it going forward.

If we can ship him out for some good role players and a possible lottery pick in '14.

I think Ed Davis will become a pretty good PF in the future.

I just want us to have a good, consistent three point shooter. Is that too much to ask?

As misguided as it is, they'll let him go.

LET Q PLAY THE 3 GODDAMMIT.

Ed Davis as backup 4.

I think Daye can be good.

So for a guy who would be a beast if he could make a single jumper in Archie Goodwin just got traded to a team that has some players who can help him with that.

If Steph Curry and Klay Thompson help that guy out with his shot I think he could to turn out to be an absolute steal
