OT - Edey…

Well... I said that if he isn't getting 20 minutes a game they might give him G League time so that he could play full minutes. Maybe that's what you're referring to. In the same post I also said that if he's getting full minutes and succeeding that is best case scenario for the Grizzlies:

"Clearly they drafted Edey with hopes he'll be their guy, but they may want to get him development minutes so that they can build a rotation that can do damage in the playoffs. To get him on the court for 30+ minutes per game G League could work -- 15 minutes per game in Memphis is not the way for him to get there. But, if he can effectively handle 20+ minutes in their starting lineup then the G League won't be necessary."
You actually said that? Insane. Do you have any examples of lottery picks being sent to the g-league or any team official saying it benefits the team or the player being in the G league for “development minutes” over starting and 15-20 min of nba action? How do you even defend that? This post is so ridiculous it honestly invalidates any impartiality you try to tell us you have

Haha. Mannnnn that guy.

Edey is loads better than him. But I know you know that
I had forgotten that he was also a Grizzlies pick (apparently trying to recreate the Big Country Reeves magic) 😂

Anthony Bennett is the other one and in both cases, being sent to the G-League was a really, really bad sign. If Zach doesn't improve at all from what he is now (he will, significantly), he's already much better than Thabeet and Bennett were at their best.

He played with JJJ basically for the first time. He opened the door for jjj to do his thing. This is why the grizzlies drafted him. The nba is an 82 game season. I expect Edey to have a couple of off nights. Maybe he’ll win rookie of the year. Maybe he won’t . But he is a good fit for the grizzlies and should have a solid nba career!

And the next time bbg misquotes me and my posts, I’ll throw this in his face! For somebody who ignores me and blocks me, he sure seems to misquote me a lot!
Says the guy that said he didn’t fit with the grizzlies. AND completely ignored how he would fit with JJJ. Come on bruh

Ok here is exactly what you said in July. Your full post.

“Jjj was their starting center last year and was pretty good! So you believe after one summer game. Edey will take over and start at center, and just like that, jjj will be happy and shift positions to the 4?”

There is no denying you said that and were 100% wrong. Then people jumped all over you and you asked if maybe they will be the twin towers. Then later took credit for being the first person to call it after everyone jumped you for doubting it originally. Lol you are crazy man.

WHY ARE YOU PERSECUTING HIM !!!???
 
Monday night, Nov 4th: Ja Morant scored 25 points and rookie Zach Edey had season highs of 25 points and 11 rebounds for the Grizzlies, who had won their last two games. Jaren Jackson Jr. had 15 points. Edey was perfect from the field in the third quarter, hitting each of his five shots along with one free throw for 13 points. https://www.nba.com/game/MEM-vs-BKN-0022400158/boxscore
 
Booo. I didn't watch the game but he only played 14 minutes last night. A quite efficient 14 minutes, but only had 8 points which killed my parlay. Not sure why he was limited because Anthony Davis wasn't playing for the Lakers. I would have thought that would have been more of an advantage for Zach.
 
Memphis fans are pretty fed up with their coach. Edey had 4 points and 6 rebounds in the first 4 minutes last night. He was feasting. Then he sat for the next 12 minutes and only played 14 minutes the entire game, ending the game with just 2 fouls. Makes zero sense.
At least they won. I thought they threw the bulls game. I couldn’t understand anything that happened in the 2nd half.
 
I don't know, but I am guessing the coach is doing a bit of load management for his first NBA season. Maybe trying to keep him at 15mpg for the first month or two to make sure he isn't wiped out by April. The Griz are playing like 12 guys a game so that makes some sense, but he may also just be an idiot.

After watching Monty play Killian Hayes instead of Ivey, anything’s possible…
