My Grizzlies are a 21 hour flight away, you live with it. Stop campaigning to take “back” a team from Memphis that has already claimed basically 3 quarters of its existence there.All of the Grizzlies success has come after Vancouver.

Regardless of any behind the scenes stuff that led to the relocation, you of all people should be campaigning for a new one and not want to inflict that same feeling of losing your team to anyone else. Especially when it’s for something that happened over 20 years ago at this point and I haven’t heard anyone vocal enough about a Vancouver expansion team as much as a “let’s revenge fuck the grizzlies” team.

Actually I accidentally did you guys dirty and had Niang in there twice, you actually have the best Porter Jr in the league as your 10th man now

Basing on projections it’s easier to say OKC. SGA is very very good already, Chet is obviously a hyper efficient big man with loads of potential on both sides and Jdub already looks like a stud. That’s not to mention Giddey, Dort, Joe and the other Williams’es plus like 300 picks in the next 5-10 years (I know that’s not the question but thunder is stacked and will be able to build around these guys very easily).

In saying that, progression is never linear, the NBA is unpredicatble and who knows how each of these players pans out. Jaren is younger than Ja and both are still a few years away from “prime”. Des is currently taking on 1st option responsibilities and although the team around him is mostly ass due to injuries and lack of depth, he has been very good so far and getting solid run that will only improve him for when he needs to revert back behind Ja. Ja, dumbassery aside, is an absolutely electric player who has shown that top 10 potential already and single handedly carried us to many a win.

I think Jaren probably has the highest ceiling of the Grizz 3, if he can reach it, same with Chet in OKC. The “right” answer is going to be OKC 9/10 times but obviously I am biased and will back my guys being the 1/10 to say Grizz. The real positive here for us fans is, with a bit of luck, we should hopefully see some must watch playoff series between these teams in the next decade.

YOU JUST LOST TO THE MEMPHIS GRIZLLLLLLLLIES LMAO
