Why Grizzlies would do this: The Grizzlies have just fired there head coach Taylor Jenkins despite being the 5th seed. This will ruin team chemistry and there will be problems coming and I can feel it. They get a young Herb Jones, a star in Dejounte Murray who would be a good replacement and they get Antonio Reeves. The Grizzlies aren't going to win it this year and this Ja era will be unsuccessful if they don't win this year. They had so many opportunities and they failed every time. They lost to a mid 7th seeded Lakers team and the future champs in Golden State. They also collapsed last year and missed the playoffs completely.
Why Pelicans would do this: I get the Pelicans suck this year but don't forget they made the playoffs last year... they have hope. They still got Zion who has improved his conditioning, a future all-star in Trey Murphy, and CJ McCollum. Murray has had injury issues this year and they have been without a point guard. Ja Morant is a top 10 player in this league and him and Zion would go great. The Pelicans are a couple moves away from contention. Yeah they have a lot of work to do but they will get a good pick this offseason and they have money to spend in free agency. The future is bright in NOLA.
