Once we lost Tyus Jones, Melton, and Brooks I knew it was going downhill. I’m of the “hot” take that Ja needed to be traded for value, retain that 3, and use the value from Ja to balance out the roster with whatever needed. The Grizzlies played way better TEAM ball without Ja and with Tyus Jones. Now that he’s gone and Ja is still here. I hate this roster.
Team ball wins Championships, and Ja isn’t a team ball oriented player. And he never will be.
Is it just me or are people looking back on Melton’s time with rose colored glasses? I feel like he was good at best and very inconsistent. Do y’all forget how he couldn’t hit a shot to save his life in the playoffs?
