sign marcus williams!!!
hate summer league games cant wait for regular season. anybody out there excited about zack randolph?? i lived in ny when he was with the knicks. he does have a ton of talent, but that comes with 80 tons of attitude!!! hope he has grown up some, because he could really help if he plays as a team player instead of for himself.
Thabeet is a joke…3 rebounds in 30 minutes of play. What a wasted draft pick. The guy will be in foul trouble immediately every game against real competition and sit most of the game. Maybe a great second round guy, but second pick guy? This will be looked back upon with great regret.
I didn’t see anything from thabeet yet!!! Man, he should be our defense guy, who make things diferent. I know basket change his life, so he have to work hard and prove us that he could be in NBA!!! Thabbet good luck for you and show your game please!!!
Thabeet jogged around, bumped a few people, and generally seemed uninterested. Passion is a talent.” I have said the same thing ever since the Pitt/UConn game in which Blair embarrassed Thabeet.
please i beg of u 2 sign marcus williams 17 dimes in one game beasty!!!!!!
I think it’s time for marcus williams to come on to memphis he can ready help us out an thabeet I hope you don’t play like that when regular season come,and we got zack randolph I jes hope this is our come back year for memphis I got my gut feelin.
What you are all failing to see is that Thabeet was drafted on potential for the future NOT what he can bring right now. For the present, all he will offer is his size and make it harder for the other team to get to the basket. That is evident thus far.
Give Thabeet some time, a year or even two, before you decide he was a bust. As for Williams, I will agree. From what he’s shown, he should be on our team and could possible split minutes with Conley if the good play continues. Good stuff so far.
Foe Shizzle Grizzle Fizzle,Thabeet will make progress.Williams is playn Good Team Ball & let’s not forget that Arthur,Haddadi,Carroll,Young r playn Good Team Ball as well.
Chris Wallace please make a deal with randolph this guy is a “BADBOY” player we don’t need that. We sopposedly rebuilding the team.Make a trade and pick Rubio and bring back Love!!! Randolph+protect pick+other guy (Conley) for Love and Rubio.And make a deal with DKV the money for Jaric.
Sign Marcus Williams please and with we could AI too.
Many guys say Rubio don’t want to come Memphis. I never see him saying that. Also he said he like:
- have young plays around him
- he like hiphop (memphis is justin timb.) city
- he don’t want to come for a cold city
- We have a spanish friend in Marc Gasol
This kid have potential, experience and challenge Usa in olympic…
Last year we make a trade like I want with minnesota. And that trade bring us one of that project All Star player (Mayo).
Do again and get Rubio; this kid is amazing in passing and he will devolop the other guys game in 3 years will we have a championship team (Rubio,Mayo,Rudy,Gasol,Thabbet) and also Carrol,Young,Arthur,...
I think the grizz have a good team this year and could be a contestant
Is Mo Williams and Marcus Williams the same person
i wonder how Zach would fit in. with him on team that would probably means less ball for Mayo. not to mention Zach’s bad boy attitude! but i believe we should give him sometime to see if he had changed or still the same trouble maker?
MARCUS WILLIAMS IS THE BACK UP POINT GUARD OR POSSIBLY THE STARTING POINT GUARD FOR THE GRIZZLIES. HES SPLITTING DEFENSES SEEING THE FLOOR REALLY WELL. HE ALSO IS SHOWING HE IS A CLUTCH PERFORMER. HIS DRIBBLING ABILITY IS AMAZING SIGN MARCUS WILLIAMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THABEET NEEDS TO GET STRONGER!!!! THE WAY HE IS PERFORMING IN SUMMER LEAGUE IS WAY BELOW HIS POTENTIAL. HE WILL NOT START THIS SEASON. REAL PHYSICAL CONTACT INTIMIDATES THABEET. HES SOFT!!!!!! THABEET HAS TO REBOUND AT AN NBA LEVEL IN ORDER TO PLAY HES NOT EVEN REALLY DEFENDING ALL THAT WELL EITHER.
Just give the guys some time.. The Grizzly Cubs are growing right before our eyes.. You can’t teach 7’3”..Thabeet will be a vital part. Even though its only summer, I must admire M. Williams really looks like he wants somebody’s job at the point. No more Rubio references, please.. Not enough balls on the court for him, O.J., Rudy, and Zack…
I dnt think the Griz will let a player like Williams Go,Hopefully the Griz dnt. Marcus Williams is an Experience Veteran with Good All-Around P/G Skills.What impress me the most is how he is running the Team!!! Keepn every1 nvolved without hurtn his Game.
I think the Griz will have a better season this yr.If the Griz could bring n 1 moe proven veteran 2 the Team,Then the Griz could really!!! make sum serious noise this season.
I for one, am confident that Hasheem Thabeet will dissapoint many in his Rookie season, because he will remind many of Pau Gasol with his inability to carry the team on his back down the stretch, and I also believe that many of these naysayers will be pleasantly surprised with his significant progress between his rookie year and sophomore year.
sign marcus!!!!!!!!he is awesome grizz going to the playoffs!!!!thabeet needs to play better
