Lol poor jv man. Its gotta suck to go to a tanking team as you spent the last few weeks motivating yourself to get back and help the contender you've grown with for 5 playoff drives. It's like getting knocked all the way back down the ladder and starting from scratch. Even Raptors without Kawhi are in a better position to recover faster than memphis is now9 time first team all-RR, First Ballot Hall of Forum -
Why is this thread still here? Please move this thread to the Let's NBA forum.
The DeRozan thread was moved literally right after the trade was announced.Mamba MentalityComment

they'll kick the can further down the road if they see a player they like this year, and if memphis has confidence they'd much rather give up the 16th pick in 2021 than the 8th or 6th in 2019, 2020.jacobdr4 wrote: View Post

Sometimes it feels better to be a bigger part of a team and to lead/drive its success than to be a passenger on a winner. That's why Kyrie asked out of Cleveland.KeonClark wrote: View Post
I'm actually happy for JV--as long as they free him. Bickerstaff has given JJJ the quick hook all year so who knows what he plans on doing with JV, but given that JV is the centrepiece coming back for a Memphis hero, you gotta believe the Grizzlies will give him plenty of run.Comment

Memphis could be a fun rebuild project in 2K. Trying to build a traditional NBA lineup with 2 bigs around JJJ and JV.Comment

do you guys think JV deserves to have his jersey retired here once his career is over? I moved if you think bosh should be retired I think JV has just as much as a case as him. although he was never a all star he ranks high in lots of franchise recordsTo be the champs you got to beat the champsComment

No and I'm a huge JV fan. Retiring jerseys are for elite long term players who contributed to successful playoff runs at a minimum. They can't all win championships for obvious reasons.bertarapsfan wrote: View Post
No one before DeRozan. I'd be OK with Lowry. No to quitter-carter but they'll do him anyway. No to Bosh for sure. Sorry, no to JV but huge and long standing O comng up
You know when they'll retire carter? If Kawhi leaves and they sell off Lowry and Gasol etc and they need some fake nostagia to take fans minds off the brutal long rebuild that would be coming with no superstars looking to come to TO.
Like DD first when they just need a feel good distraction because the current team sucks....Comment

Not only that - everyone there will always be comparing him to Gasol. He's in basically the worst situation possible. I hope Memphis flips him somewhere else.KeonClark wrote: View Post"Stop eating your sushi."

I mean, strange things have happened like the Heat retiring Michael Jordan's #23. So you never know.G__Deane wrote: View PostNo and I'm a huge JV fan.

Dallas retiring Derek Harper's number. Good player but never won anything in Dallas and never made an all star team either.Mamba MentalityComment

If he stays there - best case scenario would be that the staff might have a lot of insight into what makes Gasol tick and could transfer some of that approach to Jonas.JimiCliff wrote: View PostComment

fair enough. I mean JV is the other that has been beside lowry and derozen for all the recent success. But since you said no to bosh i respect that. IMO if you think bosh should be up their then JV has the same case as himG__Deane wrote: View PostNo and I'm a huge JV fan.
