Announcement: I'm launching a Memphis Grizzlies Substack - SubTsakalidis, "SubTsak." My writing will be free. Any money made here will go to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital through Allie's Allies
Here's more on how to donate and what's next for me:
Taylor Jenkins talked to Steven Adams about that decision, and he completely understood. Said Adams responded “We want to win. Whatever you need to do, coach, I’ll be there”
All 4 of Ja Morant's 3's came off pull-up jumpers last night. He's shooting 42.4% on pull-up 3's so far this season on 2.4 attempts per game.
Welcome to the dark.
Josh Giddey starting and playing in the middle of an investigation on relations with an underage girl is such shameless, disappointing behavior from OKC/NBA
Those people saying Shannon Sharpe would destroy Steven Adams have clearly never been around Steven Adams. I - a long time ago having been within a close proximity to Steven Adams - can assure you that Mr. Sharpe would not have much success in that fight.
Since Christmas (13 games), Ja Morant is averaging 26.5 points, 7.1 assists, + 6.2 rebounds - while shooting 50% from the field and 37.5% from 3. Grizzlies are 11-2 in those games.
Last day that 1 RT = 2 votes. Voting closes Saturday. Make 12 a starter.

Asked Dillon Brooks about the “Grizzlies need more veterans” narrative:
“Who should we sign?” Says guys like Carmelo Anthony and Dwight Howard just want to be back for their shine, not to help young guys. Calls Udonis Haslem a “real vet.”
I love how much
@JaMorant
and
@jarenjacksonjr
gas up every new addition and truly welcome them to Memphis. The culture brewing in Memphis is infectious, and they’re creating an environment players will want to play in

Zach Lowe reported that the Grizzlies were ready to offer every pick and swap to get Kevin Durant, and they also offered 3 first-round picks to get OG Anunoby -- teams just weren't budging on destination requests (Nets) and on Godfather offers (Raptors)
"I met [Kobe Bryant and Rob Pelinka] in a hotel room in Orange County... Kobe said he wanted to come to Memphis and play basketball."
Jerry West said Mamba wanted to play for the Grizzlies after becoming a free agent in 2004😯

The discourse around the Grizzlies/Warriors series being dominated around 2 flagrant fouls when there’s been legitimately awesome playoff basketball is super annoying, tbh
Some news: I’m blessed to announce that I’ll be the new Site Manager for Grizzly Bear Blues (

). I’m so thankful for this opportunity, and for the people that have helped me leading up to it.
It’s next-gen GBB, let’s have some fun
Steven Adams diving for a loose ball in a comeback loss in January, out for the season with a MCL sprain
Brandon Clarke going to rebound his missed FT, tears achilles
Luke Kennard gets hit on a screen by LeBron, out for Game 6 with shoulder injury
Terrible injury luck, man
My fiancée has her 1st brain MRI scans in a year — the longest in her 9 1/2 year battle with cancer — please pray for good reports and no growth :) i love her lots
Per the NBA's matchup data, Steph Curry was 0-7 with Dillon Brooks as his primary defender. It's going to be instrumental for Brooks to stay out of foul trouble, and equally as important for Golden State to get him into foul trouble
The Oklahoma City Thunder and Memphis Grizzlies, sitting at the 7 and 8 seeds with .500 records at the end of January, after everyone said they’d be rebuilding
I think it's incredibly lame to leave All-Star starters on the bench in the 4th quarter, especially when those were the players the fans voted into the game
The Memphis Grizzlies will have a new starting 3 next season.
- Mikal Bridges (the pipedream of all pipedreams)
- Khris Middleton
- DeMar DeRozan
- OG Anunoby
- Kyle Kuzma (sign&trade)
- Jerami Grant
- Dorian Finney-Smith
Who do you wanna see? Anyone I'm missing?
@TheJetOnTNT
this makes zero sense and it's disrespectful to the Memphis Grizzlies. You're basically saying the Grizzlies can never outcoach or outgameplan the Lakers; they outenergy the Lakers! Yall finding every reason to discount who the Grizzlies are.
Confirmed that Omri Casspi
@Casspi18
is retiring from basketball. 33-year-old spent 10 seasons in NBA and last two playing in Israel. Two stops in Sacramento with the Kings. Sending well wishes in his life after hoops.
