Left it all out there. Respect.
Just look at what today meant to Jayden Reid.
In tears in his postgame interview after dropping 32 and coming up clutch to lead Memphis to a huge win over VCU.
Great job by my guys @Greg_Gaston and @Treydraper3 to let him show his full emotions.
An instant fan favorite here.

Next draft imperative to go all in on the dynamic guard of the future to go with Booze timeline. Jerome is a bucket, but not a PG. Would still try to keep him if the money is right.
8 games in a quick thought about each player:
Ty - been amazing. But don’t love the offense as much when he’s running it.
Ced - has looked really great. Want to keep increasing his shots (but not his dribbling)
Wells - has been great this season but tonight was rough
Boozer - youngest player in the league has shown incredible flashes and some youth early on
Edey - impactful even when he’s nowhere close to himself yet. Needs to get more comfortable
Spencer - has been impressive and the balls zips around when he’s out there
Stewart - has made such a difference. Hope his knee injury is a day-to-day thing. We need him.
GG - super disappointing. Solid opener, had that one hot shooting night. Besides that has been really bad.
Grant - what I expected. Kinda mid. Can get you some buckets here and there. Likely disappears when the stakes are higher
Post - mixed bag. Like him as a 3rd big. Not as much as a backup big. But maybe with more regular minutes he can find a rhythm.
Murray - as much as I love the defense that shot is about the most broken thing I’ve ever seen
Omax - 🤷🏻♂️
Pippen - I love pip and hope he’s back soon. But seems like his long term place on this team is in jeopardy
Small - still feeling good about his backup PG upside
Mashack - would really like to see what he looks like with a rotation spot. I have this feeling he will be a major impact guy
Hendricks - 🤷🏻♂️
Lopez - very raw, don’t expect him to play real minutes unless something goes wrong. But I like the little I’ve seen so far.
Cooper - 🤷🏻♂️

I don’t mind the Grizz losing, but 2 back to back home losses to less than good teams is not great. Should have been a bounce back game, instead ugly and sloppy ball
Ehhhhh not my favorite quote. The team can be and is in a rebuilding phase but the mantra needs to be win every game and no moral victories. Culture needs to dictate that losing will happen but the goal is higher.
Tuomas Iisalo was proud of how the Grizzlies competed down the stretch. Mentioned how they’re the second youngest team in the league and made a lot of good decisions.
“We are not a fully formed contender. We’re in the rebuilding phase, and we’re off to a great start with that.”

Not a great loss tbh, at home to a bad team. Was bound to happen and I liked how they fought. I hope they hate this feeling and bounce back accordingly. Also Edey has to be better. Has to.

Some of that was injuries, some of it was FO blunders, some of it was appeasement coaching. This feels different than that. This team makeup is different than that.
Just night and day difference from that front running loser “wait til next year” culture that was festering in the Grizzlies organization. Don’t ever allow “it’s ok to lose” to take hold in your lockeroom.
And no one serious with a single brain cell in their head is saying this Grizz team is about to go win a ring this year. But decisions were made. The reset was needed. Last version of the team wasn’t going to be great at anything. Good moves, if not a little late.

Also, some of y’all switched up last minute when the writing was on the wall are taking the loudest….
