i'm not too happy with Rudy Gay's FG%, and his lack of rebounding.
it's disappointing.

now i'm stuck with trying to figure out who i'd trade him for.
but i definitely would consider trading Gay. i don't need him to be a kevin durant this year.

so obviously you're hoping/thinking he'll turn things around.

but what if he doesn't?!

If he doesn't than he doesn't. I am pretty confident he will. It's only been 2.5 weeks. DO NOT UNDERSELL HIM. If you get good value than fine, make an educated decision, but he will bounce back.

I think the problem is Mayo. He's dominating the ball. Conley needs to be handling the rock and distributing. Mayo is a great talent, but a bit of a ballhog.

conley is stinking up the joint. he doesn't take it to the hole. he just dribbles around for 10 seconds and then gives the ball to marc gasol. the grizz look bad w/ conley at the point.
i say bench conley and let lowry/j critt run the show.

It sounds like the Griz may be considering putting the rock in Mayo's hands as the PG.

I haven't seen the Griz play. Maybe someone who has could share what is going on.

I finally figured out who i'm targeting a Gay trade for. ...Josh Smith.

yep, i put in the offer of Rudy Gay for Josh Smith.
especially now with Josh hurt.
in the long run, it's perfect for me.

Another guy who was never meant to be a franchise player, and can't handle the pressure of having to step up when the kitchen's getting hot. I always knew he was Pau's little second-hand man.

Mayo is not a point guard. They really need to figure out how to get Conley going. A good pure point guard is the key to the sort of offense Memphis is trying to run.

If I owned Smith I would laugh and reject. Smith was a stud before he got hurt and he'll be back in a week. Very quick healer. If he was out for another 6 weeks than I would say it's more likely.
