Brandan Wright or Wade Baldwin
But the coach wanted another Big. And he believes in Baldwin. Its not that serious. Troy Williams wasnt gon make or break the Grizzlies anytime soon. Plus, they drafted Baldwin, Williams is undrafted

Did you watch this team last year? They looked old and slow. Watching Zach get exploited in the PnR was painful. shyt, it's still happening. The Marc/zach combo are too slow. Fizz didn't insert JaM into the starting lineup for him to put up 20/10. He's there to space the floor for Mike and Marc, provide athleticism, and to play D, and he's done just that. He's been the best, and the most versatile defender we've had. There's several articles talking about how good he's been

It's like because he isn't a Zbo clone, then he's no good.

:manny:
They still old and slow... They were up in the WCF being old and slow...

:whoa:

I ain't here to beef breh... You obviously higher on Green than I am. I never said he was worthless tho. I just wanna see Zbo get his name called in the intros cause he is still performing at a high level.

We stacking wins before the allstar break... Hopefully Steve Kerr plays Gasol barely any minutes and everybody comes back refreshed and ready to make a run at a top 4 playoff spot

No beef around here..........we just see things differently on this topic. No problem.

The WCF run was 4 years ago. And we got swept. The league is changing. Teams change. The Grizzlies are no exception. At some point, we gotta move on and allow these new cats to shine and we gotta let Fizz run the squad how he sees fit. We didn't let Hollins do it. We didn't let Joerger's clown ass do it.

Granted it was against Denver and Phoenix, but the offense was impressive.

If we want to be taken seriously and get the 4th seed, we gotta score 100+ consistently. The 90-88 scores have to :camby:

I feel like these long road trips are helping the Grizzlies come closer as a team. This current stretch reminds me of early in the season when we had that six game winning streak after losing badly to Milwaukee.

I don't want to call it just yet but we might be turning a corner again, like how we broke out of our 500 slump to start the season

Brehs, Z-Bo should be re-inserted into the starting 5. Makes no sense to have him coming off the bench to start games but he ends up playing more minutes than the rest of the bench and some starters.

Other than that, dude is having a fantastic season. And I'm hoping that the Grizzlies start surging in the conference standings.

Zach's my favorite player on the Grizzlies but I agree with @holidayinn21 here. While I didn't want to see him go to the bench and was skeptical at the start of the season the move has turned out to be a great one for our offense.

Z-Bo plays really well off of the second unit and keeps the offense flowing instead of dying out like in the past. In previous years when our bench came in the offense stalled, and the starters had a hard time getting back in rhythm once they returned which led to our scoring droughts.

JaMychal's probably our best defensive big and can play well off of either Gasol or Randolph, let him try and keep opposing bigs from going off at the start while Zach can finish games depending on the opposing teams personnel
