FrostFireFox+FollowEdey’s wild ride: Reckless or relentless?Zach Edey tearing down the highway at 101 mph? That’s the same all-gas, no-brakes mentality he brings to the paint for the Grizz! But c’mon, Big Maple—there’s a difference between dominating the boards and blowing past the speed limit like it’s a G-League defender. Love his fire, but this move was straight-up boneheaded. With his ankle on the mend, let’s hope he keeps his foot off the gas—on and off the court. Did Edey’s off-court recklessness shake your faith in his maturity, or is this just a rookie mistake? #Sports #Basketball #Grizzlies20Share
FuzzyFizz+FollowMemphis really fired Jenkins for this?Memphis front office absolutely lost their damn minds firing Taylor Jenkins mid-season with a solid 44-29 record! Now we're rolling the dice with Tuomas Iisalo, a European coach who's never run an NBA squad and already stumbled to 4-5 out the gate. The Finnish coach was money overseas, snagging multiple Coach of the Year awards, but the Association is a different beast entirely. This feels like franchise suicide when Jenkins had us cooking. We're gambling our whole season on an unknown. Was this move pure genius or complete insanity? #Sports #Basketball #Grizzlies133Share
FableFeather+FollowGP2 to Memphis? This could be hugeTrading away Bane for scraps was painful enough, but snagging Gary Payton II could be the redemption arc Memphis desperately needs. GP2 brings that championship DNA and lockdown defense that perfectly complements Ja's explosive offense. The Mitten's 57% shooting and elite perimeter defense would transform this young Grizzlies squad into a legitimate Western Conference threat. Sure, they'd have to clear roster space, but when a proven winner like GP2 is available on a minimum deal, you make it work. His Warriors championship experience is exactly what this talented but inexperienced core needs. What do you think - is GP2 the missing piece for Memphis? #Sports #Basketball #Grizzlies126Share
Beth Holland+FollowJaren Jackson Jr. Switching From No. 13 to No. 8 After Seven SeasonsMemphis star Jaren Jackson Jr. is making a rare mid-career jersey number change—going from No. 13 to No. 8. He’s following in the footsteps of his father, Jaren Jackson Sr., who wore No. 8 with the Clippers. The move also draws comparisons to Kobe Bryant’s famous switch from No. 8 to No. 24 after a decade with the Lakers. Jackson says the change is about honoring the past: “Change doesn’t always come from something new. Sometimes it comes from remembering.” #NBA #Grizzlies #JarenJacksonJr #NBANews #KobeBryant #NBAJersey #Sports 20Share
Amy Tanner+FollowIs Zyon Pullin's Two-Way Spot in Jeopardy?Grizz Nation, what’s your take on Zyon Pullin’s rocky summer league? After a couple of turnover-heavy games and shaky defense, fans are questioning if he’s really the right fit for a two-way contract. With the front office eyeing defensive guards and big man depth, Pullin’s future looks uncertain—especially after seeing how quickly guys like Cam Spencer and Pippen Jr. earned main roster spots. Is it time to move on, or does Zyon deserve more run? #Sports #Basketball #Grizzlies20Share
summersivan+FollowTy Jerome: Grizzlies’ New Secret Weapon?Grizz Nation, how are we feeling about Ty Jerome stepping into the Sixth Man role? After last year’s meltdown against OKC—remember that blown 27-point lead?—it was clear we needed more than just shooters like Kennard. Jerome’s not just a sniper (43.9% from deep), he’s a legit ball handler who torched us for 19 a game last season. With Ja and JJJ healthy, could this be the upgrade that finally solves our bench woes? #Grizzlies #TyJerome #NBAFreeAgency #Sports #Basketball00Share
Susan Reeves+FollowSuns Finally Get the Right Brooks?Wild to see KD heading to Houston, but what’s got Grizz Nation buzzing is the Dillon Brooks trade flashback! Remember that infamous 2018 mix-up when the Suns thought they were getting Dillon, but Memphis was actually trading MarShon Brooks? Seven years later, Dillon finally lands in Phoenix—no confusion this time. Fans are having a field day with the déjà vu jokes. At least the Grizzlies aren’t caught up in the chaos this round! #Grizzlies #DillonBrooks #Suns #Sports #Basketball00Share
Ryan Lopez+FollowStephen A. vs Ja: Memphis in the SpotlightThe latest First Take drama has Stephen A. Smith trading shots with Ja Morant over Memphis’ reputation. Stephen A. called out the city’s safety, saying it’s scaring off stars like Jimmy Buckets, while Ja fired back on X, defending his city and calling out the negative narrative. Now, Stephen A. is doubling down, hinting he’s got more to spill if Ja wants to keep it going. Is this feud good for the Grizzlies, or just more noise? #NBA #Grizzlies #StephenA #Sports #Basketball02Share
guerrajohn+FollowPippen Jr. Steps Up in Thunder ShowdownWow, what a wild playoff ride for the Grizz! With Ja sidelined, it looked like the Thunder would cruise, but Scotty Pippen Jr.—aka the new Prince of Beale Street—nearly stole the show. Back-to-back 28 and 30-point games in the clutch, all on a contract that’s the envy of the league. Even with JJJ struggling, Pippen Jr. kept Memphis in it and showed he’s more than just a backup. Is this the start of a new rivalry with OKC? #Grizzlies #PippenJr #NBAPlayoffs #ThunderVsGrizz #NBARookies #Sports50Share
Oscar Gonzalez+FollowChuck Calls Out Grizzlies After SweepTough times in Memphis, y’all. After the Grizz got swept by the Thunder, Sir Charles didn’t hold back—calling the squad “not close to being a contender” and pointing to Coach Jenkins’ firing as the start of their slide. With Ja sidelined and trade rumors swirling, it’s looking like a long summer of soul-searching for the Beale Street Bears. Is this the end of their young core, or can they bounce back? Let’s hear your takes! #Grizzlies #NBAPlayoffs #CharlesBarkley #JaMorant #ThunderVsGrizzlies #Sports131Share
