Who thinks the Grizz go under the 40.5 wins this season? Last year we only won 34 games.

Try again...
2019-20: 34-39
2020-21: 38-34

Both of the last 2 seasons were shortened.

Oops you’re correct. So how many more games will be played this season compared to last?

10 more.

over, but not by much

JJJ better get a whole more consistent and learn to rebound if we going to win more than 40 games this season….

Give me the under

Vegas is usually pretty spot on but they have missed on us two seasons in a row. In 19/20 the Grizzlies over/under was 25.5 for the full 82 game schedule. They already had 32 wins when the league shut down for Covid in game 65. In the 20/21 72 game schedule Vegas had the Grizz at 32.5. They finished with 38. I think they'll go over the 40.5 projection at 43 or 44 with another positive season of player growth.

Over easily. We won 38 last year with no Jaren and a less experience team

I hope you guys are right but we lost a major force in Val. I like Adams but idk. A healthy JJJ would help. We shall see.

We should expect improvements in young role players across the board: Dillon, Bane, Melton, Tillman and Clarke.
Ja to take the next step in being a perennial superstar.
JJJ to be a consistent contributor.

None of these are crazy expectations. We'll win over 40 games IMO

Grizzlies looked pretty good last night in their preseason game with the Bucks, though I would have enjoyed watching the 4th quarter. I may revise my take after a couple of more preseason games.

I think Ja is figuring out he needs to be a little more selfish for this team to succeed. I am curious if Adams numbers go up and Jonas numbers go down due to the Ja factor.

Under. Unless Zaire Williams surprises we will be in the lottery

2-0 in the preseason. We look pretty good right now. Adams is a hoss. Melton is better, Ja is better. Dillon is DB. We need JJJ and Zaire Williams to step up and we can beat the 40.5.

The Grizzlies still have that synergy together from last season, at least it looks that way so far.

Bane looks much improved as well. IMO we can hit the over without Zaire being a major contributor. Health will be key and Ja has to be elite.

Health = JJJ back to kicking ass

Missing on Bouknight sure looks like a missed treat…I doubt I’ll ever forgive them on that one. Much like when we passed on Curry and Harden for Thabeet

Way over. 48.

man I mean you had to be about ignorant to make that choice. you had a 66% chance of making a better choice and they missed it. even Steve Wonder could have seen that coming a mile away.
