It is quite obvious that the Grizz really only wanted AI to sell tickets. They never even gave him a chance to make the team better. Keeping the line up the same and just giving AI enough minutes to say he played but have no true affect on the game mde it obvious where there head was at. You can tell the makeup of a team by game 10 and the Grizz season is already over.
At this stage in his career were the only thing that could improve upon what he has done is a ring it does him no good to play for this team. I would rather AI retire then see a great player misused like this again. It is one thing for him to come off the bench for a contender that has someone comparable in the starting lineup, but to come off the bench for below average guys like Conley and Stuckey makes it obvious that the NBA really does not want or appreciate him. AI is my favorite player, but before I watch more of this B.S. and **** me off even more. I would rather he retire from the NBA and possibly spend his remaining yrs left over seas where he may be given a shot to actually play instead of be played……
This is a sad day in NBA basketball. I personally will not be watching anymore for a while…..
FYI it is obvious AI only wants to win if he were concerned with fitting in and excepting that the way they were doing things just to get back in good graces with the NBA he would have played the game, but at this point in the season if you do not know who your starters are you are a lost team. No team is gonna make a lineup change right now so it is obvious they had predetermined the lineup prior to the season start. Whether they improve or not……
The Grizz already got the better end of the stick whe his jersey sold out in 2 days. How can the most popular player on your team and the reason for your financial success not be in the starting lineup, or atleast get starters minutes?????????
