What the hell is going on? It has been ten years since I've seen the team look this lost and uninterested in Grit n Grind.

Grit n Grind is dead. It's befuddling to me how he can trot Parsons out there in the starting lineup every night. The guy is frail and not anywhere near 100 percent.

He's not been a disappointment because he's still recovering from injury. The disappointment is in his role. If he's not 100 percent, let him come off the bench. Fizdale is adamant he start.

I'm beginning to think that this entire offseason was a disaster. $24M/yr to a guy that can't hit from 8 feet away nor play defense, and I'm still failing to wrap my head around $31M/yr for Conley. He's not elite, he's not a locker room leader, and that's just a heck of a lot of money for someone that very well may retire without having ever made an all star team

Granted, Conley's not the Grizz are losing by any means, but man is this thzing a mess. Oh, and no first round draft pick this year...

Please tell me Memphis sports talk radio types call him "Chandelier" Parsons.

That's kinda what I meant. They're not getting what they should with that price tag

The last few years they have struggled at the end of the regular season but this is different. This is a complete collapse. It seems the whole team is pissed that Chandler has such a big role and Fizdale is trying to show he is in charge by starting the crazy lineups. It is completely out of control.

At this rate they might not make the playoffs. It is unbelievable.

I don't agree with your take on Conley.

If you put him on any of the "name" teams in the west, he's a perennial all star. Maybe even the top PG in the west. He's not flashy like Westbrook, and he's not a pure scorer like Harden. He does a good job running the team, doesn't turn the ball over, and has really upped his scoring, particularly behind the arc. After this offseason, his contract won't be as crazy, either.

The Parsons signing was retarded. It's made even more retarded by the fact that they're probably going to have to let JaMachyl Green walk because they can't pay him. It's also a travesty that they haven't been able to put a decent backup PG on the roster.

Fizdale also is not impressive to me at all. He overreacts with his lineup juggling. That's been part of the problem.
