what a meteroric rise
who would have thought -- even two seasons ago he would be in this position
credit his work ethic and desire to be challenged by Barnes

Hurley saying no to the sLakers is EPIC!!!

Grizzlies pick Zach Edy in the draft at #9

Ugh

If, and it’s a big if, Ja can bounce back, Edey will just be in his way… what a wild pick

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

A horrible ******* pick in 2024...

You have an elite rim finisher in Ja and you draft a lane clogger...

 

[NorCalVol67]

I know Adams was hurt for a ridiculous amount of time, but I like him way more than Edey.

 

[hmanvolfan]

I thought for sure they would pick Dalton Knecht but they do need rebounding and rim protector.

 

[Tin Man]

I don’t think NBA officials will disregard Edey camping out under the opponents’ basket.

The Grizzlies already salary dumped Adams. ...

I know. Just saying I would rather have Adams.

It's a stupid pick for so many reasons. Edey WAY too slow, game is a horrible fit with Ja.

An opposing team will have a layup line when they run pick-n-roll against Ja/Edey...

He will get abused in the NBA.

That Purdue stuff don't bother me. He's just not a Top 10 pick caliber of player. And this is just a horrible fit....

The Purdue stuff does not bother me at all. Among my favorite Titans are a Bama, Gator and Buckeye.

I like Edey, just don’t think he is an above average NBA player.

Hope I’m wrong.

I don't like Edey. And he doesn't fit Ja AT ALL. The Grizz literally drafted a hindrance to their superstar.

The Grizz have never whiffed on a draft pick.

Hasheem Thabeet and OJ Mayo verify this

The last 1st round picks were Ziaire Williams, David Roddy, and Jake LaRavia.

Ouch...

Steven Adams ain’t a physical phenomenon and Ja did fine with him in the middle. Nobody knows how well they will work together. Not a huge Edey fan but when he left college he was averaging over 25 ppg when he was at around 8 his freshman year.

Vince Williams and GG Jackson seem like they’re gone work out ok.

I wouldn't compare Adams and Edey. Adams plays vastly differently

Oh hell no, Dalton got drafted by the asswhole Lakers
