I think it's too late to build around them. Three reasons:
1)Neither are dominant offensive players.
2)Both will be in their 30's next season/
3)They blew their opportunity once Levien was let go. He was the only one saying that Mike and Marc were the cornerstones of the team.

I agree but I don't see nobody taking Mike contract. And I don't see them letting go of Marc. So with that being said Wallace gonna have to do something. Also, hopefully Chandler recovers cuz with the money he making he taking up alot cap space doing nothing.

I don't disagree. But once again, this goes back to Wallace and his ineptitude. Those contracts have left us without much flexibility. His draft picks have flopped so it's not like we have young, cheap talent. The most valuable asset we have is Gasol, and he's not getting traded. We're stuck in the NBA mud, the worst place to be in the league.

things that have to be changed immediately...

The starting lineup/weirdo rotations
Lack of Rookie development
Lack of ball movement
Lack of focus on rebounds

Green HAS to sit down for a few games. If they not gonna run a play for you then you HAVE to grab offensive boards, get free throws, set mean ass picks, block shots..etc. I'd rather start Davis at this point.

Tony Allen too... his steals and crazy few individual stops are not worth the rest of the crazyness. He and Vince Carter should alternate DNPs and Daniels should be starting at SG.

Also I would rather them take the restriction off Parsons and he injure his leg than watch him be handcuffed and just check out on being apart of what's going on.

Big games from Mike and Marc. Solid game from Z also. Jam did his thing on defense, but this nikka picks up the dumbest fouls ever.

Fizz finally cut the rotation. We're playing too many wings.

Good bounce back win but I'm not convinced we'll get out of that 6th seed anymore. It seems like every time the Grizzlies might move up in the standings they suffer a setback and the Jazz/Clippers gain ground on them

I still believe we can beat the Rockets but I'd much rather face Utah/LA in the first round

We need Green to rebound like this game every night. Gotta chill out on the reaching tho.

Fizzdale finally letting guys play consistent rotations instead of over tinkering with shyt.

If Chandler Parsons scores 20 I might straight up

Such a cutting edge strategy...

Y'all still think Green is worthy of starting? Over Zbo?

Green, Parsons, Allen shouldn't ever be on the floor together let alone be in the starting lineup. They end up playing 2 on 5 with that slaw ass lineup.

Fizzdale is showing he not ready/built for this gig. Why would anybody on the team take him serious when you don't start the best players? And freeze out Zbo in the 4th when he had it going...

Wallace should have moved Allen, Green, and one of the young guys for a wing that can get 12-15 pts or a pick

The way this team is constructed is going to lead to a 20 something win team in the next few years.

2 of your starters and the 3rd best player will be free agents with only cap space to resign one and no first round picks....
