Will the Grizzlies look to trade one of their core pieces?
On this episode Grizzlies writer Chris Herrington joins Keith to discuss the #Grizzlies season and to go over what the offseason will look like, what moves the team should consider, and what the odds are that either Ja Morant, Desmond Bane or Jaren Jackson Jr will get moved (and what that move could look like).
Also: Jaylen Wells and Zach Edey both finish top 5 in the Rookie of the Year vote.

I do not want the Grizz to overpay Jaren, which for me means anything over $40m a year. Even the max at 240/4 is WAY to effing much, 60 a year would kill the team's ability to sign any bench depth. The supermax is a non-starter for me, no way does he deserve $70+m a year whether or not he makes all NBA, he is not Jokic or Giannis, not close.
The Hawks did make the 2nd round of the playoffs in 2015,16 and conference final in 21.. better than the Grizz lately
Grizz:
Santi (if he gets re signed)
GG
1 or both of our picks this year
Rockets:
Tari eason
Upgrades our defense while also keeping some of the spacing santi brought but does sacrifice depth
I really want Lauri Markkanen. He would be perfect for Iisalo's system.

I would trade bane for trey Murphy I just believe he a better shooter then Desmond he takes his time when he shoots the ball
"Vince Williams will be better than Jaylen Wells."
I doubt a 6'4", injury prone wing will be better than a 6'8", good defender and shooter, durable wing, who's also younger. Jaylen might be better than everyone in the backcourt not named Ja by year 3.
I hope they keep the core. Busting it up early on is a terrible idea. Most teams take years to develop a solid core unless a team just builds a quick super team for a single win
"The value proposition of having Ja Morant on your basketball team is still greater, right now, than the value proposition of Ja on the trading market." – Chris
That's not what "value proposition" means. You just mean "value." A "value proposition" is a short statement that explains why a customer should buy your product instead of the competition's. It is not a synonym for (actual or overall) "value." Stop trying to sound smarter than you are by using bigger words than is necessary (especially if you don't understand what those words mean).
