RE: Lakers Look For Redemption Against Grim Grizzlies
This is good for the Lakers cause they have nothing to win and nothing to lose. They are out of thr playoffs and they dont't have their 1st round pick this season so they don't need to tank and can play without any pressure what so ever. Every game is an opportunity for gaining valuable experience for the young players. And Grizzlies should forget this season as soon as possible. I think firing Fizdale was a terrible move. Imo, trading Gasol would have been a better choice.
Great post, looking forward to more NBA on the blog!
Yea this has been a total lost season for Memphis. I'm honestly shocked they've had this bad of a record even with Marc Gasol on the squad. He was such an impactful player not too long ago. Trading him would've been interesting, that would've left Conley all by himself whenever he makes his eventual return. Yea this will be a great time for the young kids to gain some experience, but it was actually fun having the thought of "oh we can ACTUALLY mathematically make the playoffs". Didn't expect them to make it at all because like we've talked about, they're inexperienced and that leads to having trouble closing the deal.
