Si or No? Would give us the money to resign Mayo and Speights. ZBo has been great these past 2 years but he is 30 years old and coming off a serious knee injury. Zbo hasnt looked the same and the Grizz have looked way better with Speights starting

Zbo looked pretty good yesterday

no

No....Grizzlies probably won't match what a team offers Mayo and hopefully in the draft this year they will pick somebody who can score like rudy. If not at least pick up a back up pg. Then go and find a reliable scorer. The grizzlies have more pieces than most think in place to win a title. What they need is a back up pg and another go to scorer

But the offense is a lot less fluid when Zbo is in there vs when Speights is in

It doesn't help things when Rudy's transition defense in the 4th quarter is non-existent.

That is because Z-Bo missed half the season. The offense was very fluid last year with Z-Bo playing.

Rudy and Zbo are two of the worst in the league on defense at their positions

Neither is the worst that is a little over exaggeration. Rudy is an ok defender. Again Z-Bo was out half the year with a major knee injury. He still isn't 100% and still isn't in shape.

Hmmm, the team was -22 (the largest deficit of any grizz player) with Speights on the floor. He doesnt protect the rim n he gives up easy rebounds n putbacks during crucial moments.

Do you attack every player but Rudy?

Speights was playing backup center. As a starter he would be the power forward and those weaknesses would be covered up a bit. We just look and play completely different with ZBo in the lineup instead of speights. Not saying Speights is better or Zbo isnt great but the Chemistry with that starting lineup is terrible

Considering Speights single handedly lost the game yesterday, no.

Mo is also a good offensive spark. W/n he plays with intensity on defense he is solid. That throwaway to Griffin at the end of the half was not one of his finer moments. All-in-all Mo does a lot of good things and some really stupid stuff.

In re: Griffin, he is the most overhyped one dimensional player I have ever seen. Cool you can catch and alley oop and throw it down. He is nothing w/o CP3.

He was an All Star last year without Paul. But you are right that his game needs a lot of work
