The Memphis Grizzlies have traded front court player Rudy Gay to the Toronto Raptors. The Grizzlies will acquire Ed Davis and Jose Calderon and then Calderon will be shipped to the Pistons for Tayshaun Prince and Austin Day.
I believe they're a better team without him. ZBO can be the focus on offense and dominate like he did wo Gay. Gasol and Conley have also proven they can step up wo Gay.
I think memphis couldve done better with this trade but i dont see it as a step back. i think daye is decent could b better with more consistent minutes and davis is 1 of the most promising young bigs n the nba. Tayshaun is still a good defender and a better 3 point shooter than gay, he can spread the floor better which is gonna help there half court offense. It might not show during the regular season but it will help n the playoffs when the game slows down they will need another shooter out there n between the bigs and non shooter tony allen. Just cause gay is the better player that dont mean he is the best fit for that team.
I like speights too but his game is very similar to z bo and gasol so why not have a more athletic option like davis as a backup. And leur who they got from cavs 6'10 shooter can rebound. Hes just n his 2nd year, he hasnt even had the opportunity to b trash yet
but ellington was having a significant season and proving he is a great threat outside.and proving speights is a big boost off the bench.they shouldve kept them then do ths trade
This trade is goin to affect them hard tayshaun daye or Davis can't change a game like Rudy gay can, or can't put up his numbers. Tayshaun is getting older and older meaning his goin to be useless soon. N not no way Rudy n derozan is da same player one a SF n one SG come on now. The trade was stupid period.
Griz well done....very well done. Raptors got screwed again. Soon over luxury cap with the core of barg, gay, derozen....what a joke....why is BC still a gm. Just simply laughable..
Yeah i dont get that either. They added another bad contract without moving 1 that they already had like fields or barg, calderon is a expiring contract thats the 1 u keep and gay and derozen r basically the same player n my opinion gay just has more experience
The lakers made their move already. . The wrong one - when they hired mike d antoni. Thats the whole problem. They can't win shit with him coaching. He's as bad as kurt rambis was. They know they screwed up bad. Buss pulled the trigger last minute when the whole organization decided on jackson buss said no. What a dumb ass.
the triangle offense would have worked with this roster .but buss is stupid enough not to hire Jackson.now,they got to lose one of the best skilled big man in pau.and a may lose Howard in the free agency.they got to make it work.its now or never for the la .

All that is true but did yall c beasley go to work n the 4th lastnite? We need a long athletic sf who can defend and knock down open shots. The 2 bigs aint workin regardless of wat offense we running 1 of them has to go
I think if you were going to trade Rudy you should have did it before the season and resigned OJ and kept Ellington and Spheights. I hate to Rudy go Because with a lil more Training and hard work he could be a Superstar right under Melo but right there with James Harden. I think we could have atleast got a 1st rd pick out the deal.
dont get how u can say gay just need a "lil" more practice to be similar to melo....he needs a LOT of practice to even com close. career 18 vs 25 is not a little. He should be blessed to have a danny granger type of career. Not melo..
Damn!!!! Grizz
ReplyDeleteImean dey have made a run witout gay before nd dey jus added more depth wit ed davis, austin daye... prince still has a startin role
ReplyDeletei hope they start losing from now on... dumb fucks

Maybe ellington but they wont miss speights that much.
Deletewell,still they shouldnt have moved them both.after all its just about 6m worth.they still got 34m worth of salary cap for 3yr with the rudy gay trade

They should of did the trade with the lakers and boston!! Paul Pierce too Memphis..Rudy Gay too Lakers...And Pau Gasol too Boston
ReplyDeleteThat would have been the shit but I think they just wanted to cut the money wage down.

i want to see pau gasol and mwp traded for derozan and bargnani.almost same salary cap in all.
ReplyDeleteLakers need to just make a move i dont care who it is. We keep having these peaty 3 game winning streaks, the shit is fools gold. Its not working out.
