I'd love to hear coach fizdale's analysis on how you coach surgically repaired knees.

Step 1) give them a major role
Step 2) ask them to drive and do other knee-intensive activities
Step 3) ???
Step 4) Profit

Must spread rep.

Also has Tmac always reported for the Grizzlies or is he just following his man crush around wherever he goes TMZ style?

Someone obviously likes to breathe hot air out of their mouth because those words made no sense. Like RC did not try to develop Parsons' game...

I do wonder what they mean by positionless though. Is Parsons going to come off bench with that salary to play 3 and 4? It may very well be that Parsons is too big for his skillset - good passing skills but not quick enough to lose defenders. Tall enough to play in the post but not physical enough to beat defenders.

What it does sound though, is that Memphis looks to change their usual style we've grown to know. We may see Parsons more as 4 but he has to get healthy first. I wonder if he ever plays against Mavs with the knees he has... Enough about Parsons! I want some Mavs basketball!!!

He did the same with Ellis early last season too, but nobody really cared so he eventually stopped.

Pretty sure I saw the other day that ZBo is going to come off the bench for the Grizz. Not sure where Parsons plans on playing whenever he gets back on the floor.

Who is Tony Snell? I assume he's a basketball player?

I cant wait to see him on the floor. If Kerr is as good a coach as people think, he wont be playing much. But players/fans of GS are already singing the same tune we were at the beginning of the season....we eventually came around.

Good article on Westbrook. I know he is extremely polarizing, but I still think he's going to be one of the great ones when his career is finished. Unfortunately, he may be a great one with no championships.

I respect Westbrook for being tremendously talented and he may be one of the few NBA players who goes 100% every second he's on the floor.

That said, dude is tremendously overrated. For every good thing he does, he does something stupid. We saw a perfect example in the Mavs-Thunder game. He ran a hard break and tried to dunk. He got blocked by the rim and then got upset and came back to the other side and took a stupid foul. Caused a 4-pt turnaround, because he couldn't control his motor/passion. His IQ isn't that high and he plays only with his heart.

Totally agree Erica - his quick temper flash point is going to cost OKC this year without the voice of Durant in his ear telling him to check himself.

Haven't seen this mentioned -- JR Smith's ridiculous contract (4 yrs / $57 million). Consider that the Mavs are paying Curry $3 million a year. I understand wanting to keep the team together but sheesh. Lebron is the GM and the agent.

I had totally forgotten about JR's status. I guess his agent really did his job. I get him receiving close to 15 a year, but for 4 years each... You can not trade that contract. But it is not like they would be able to get similar player in the free agency either, with the cash they are able to offer. Besides, if amnesty clause is included in the new CBA, then this is not actually that bad of a deal.

I thought the JR contract was pretty reasonable. I believe year 4 is partially guaranteed, too.

I believe Lebron has made most of the major decisions for the Cavs since coming back to Cleveland, some are pretty much known that they were Lebron decisions.

-trade for Love
-fire Blatt
-hire Lue
-Tristan Thompson huge contract
-JR contract

etc

But I gotta say other than trading for Love who I think had little to no impact on their championship most decisions have been pretty good and the bottom line is they won a championship. Maybe one day Lebron will own the Cavs.
