Meh. I would take covington and double down on the defensive mindset. But I wouldn't want to give up too much to get him. Kyle and a pick?

Kyle is better than him

Yup. Better PER, better defensive rating, a secondary ball handler, and 3 years younger.

Would love to have Eric Gordon coming off the bench. Having a really good 3pt shooter on the 2nd unit would be awesome. He's shooting almost 44% this season. Not a very good defender though. Just don't know who I would give up for him, Culver and a pick maybe.

Deadline in 2 days and lots of trades but none involving the Grizzlies.

Two of the latest:

Crazy day of trades.

Link but nothing Grizzlies so far.

Quote:Feb. 10 updates (deadline at 3 p.m. ET)
2:37 p.m. ET: The Dallas Mavericks are trading Kristaps Porzingis and a second-round pick to the Washington Wizards for Spencer Dinwiddie and Davis Bertans, sources tell ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski and Tim MacMahon.

2:23 p.m. ET: The Charlotte Hornets are acquiring Washington Wizards center Montrezl Harrell for Vernon Carey Jr. and Ish Smith, sources tell ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

2:15 p.m. ET: The Los Angeles Lakers do have a deal available to them to trade Russell Westbrook to the Houston Rockets for John Wall, but they are balking at including the additional draft assets the Rockets are asking for, ESPN's Ramona Shelburne reports on the NBA Today Trade Deadline special.

1:58 p.m. ET: The Indiana Pacers are finalizing a trade to send Torrey Craig to the Phoenix Suns for Jalen Smith and a future second-round pick, sources tell ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski. Smith, the No. 10 pick in 2020, had his third-year option declined before the season, limiting what the Pacers can offer him in a contract this summer.

1:38 p.m. ET: The Boston Celtics are acquiring guard Derrick White in a trade from the San Antonio Spurs, sources tell ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski. Romeo Langford, Josh Richardson and a top-4 protected 2022 first-round pick are going to San Antonio. The Spurs will also have rights to swap first-round picks with Boston in 2028.

1:35 p.m. ET: After swinging a deal for Ben Simmons, the Brooklyn Nets might not be done. Sources tell ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski that the Nets are still working to be aggressive in more deal-making today, armed with two new first-round picks.

1:26 p.m. ET: Ben Simmons will continue to work with his therapist to get mentally ready to play for the Brooklyn Nets. "It's a work in progress," a source close to Simmons tells ESPN's Ramona Shelburne. Simmons is thrilled with the change of scenery and has already spoken to Kevin Durant.

1:17 p.m. ET: The Brooklyn Nets are trading James Harden and Paul Millsap to the Philadelphia 76ers for Ben Simmons, Seth Curry, Andre Drummond and two first-round picks, sources tell ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski. The Sixers are sending the Nets an unprotected 2022 first-round pick and a protected 2027 first-round pick, sources tell ESPN.

Are the Mavs tanking? Weird trade for them.

Hope the Grizz stand down today .... I've got a good feeling that they will be able to resign Kyle and Tyus in the offseason ...

Deadline is over now with no activity from the Grizzlies. I guess that they could pickup someone on the buyout market but I don't see a need.

I wonder if it ever got to the point where our front office met with our our core 3 or even just JA and asked what they felt was right for the team during this trade deadline? I’m glad we kept everyone and really think this team can make it to the Western Conference Finals. That alone would be amazing.

Not really surprised we stayed put. Hoped they might pull the trigger on a deal or two but our chemistry right now is too good to mess with.
