Grizzlies (19-24) lost to HOU 94-112. HOU was on SEGABABA.

Harden 57 points (17-18 FT). MEM defensive effort was horrible, many straight line drives...

One whisper making the rounds: Marc Gasol can become a free agent at season's and, amid a growing belief around the league that he will indeed exercise that option, Memphis could be moved to explore trading Gasol now rather than face the threat of losing him without compensation

UPDATE: Memphis is 19-24, 14 of 15 in the West.

The Grizzlies 19 wins is tied with Orlando for 8th worst, so if they can 'break this tie' and hold that position through the lottery, the pick will roll over (#1-8).  They’re 9th worst in the NBA in point differential (-2).

Note: this is updated in the OP as well.

UPDATE: Memphis is 19-25, 14 of 15 in the West.

The Grizzlies 19 wins is tied with Orlando for 7th worst, so currently the pick is slated to roll over if no one passes them between now and the rest of the season, or in the lottery process (#1-8 rolls over).

They’re 9th worst in the NBA in point differential (-2.2), and 2nd worst in the West (Kings are 3rd worst, fwiw).

I hope this thing doesn't convey. 

Too much of a potential logjam.

agree. We dont need it right now and it will be more use to us in 2020

Can always kick it down the road by trading the pick for future picks... One in the hand is worth two in the bush. Memphis have hit big time in JJJ, they could make a sideways move and be right back in the playoffs and then the pick in 2021 is late first...

Or they turn into Brooklyn. Hello #1 pick, 2021!

Wow, just looked and the 111-101 score is deceiving. It was garbage time 108-79 at the 5:37 mark...

Just 1/2 game ahead of #6 WAS...

B2B coming up @BOS and @TOR

These guys are probably done as far as Playoff contention. The only question now is whether or not the pick conveys or not.

I don't think it does. But we'll see.

Start the Memphis Grizzlies 2019-20 Season Watch Thread. This Memphis team will easily finish in bottom 8 this year. Time to focus on next year.

Thank goodness we still have Sacramento.  ;D

Celtics are actually in good shape with that pick. Why? Because it looks like Memphis will be somewhere between 6th and 10th worst. Keep in mind that even in the 7th slot, the Celtics can still get that pick if two teams were to "jump" over them in the lottery. So either the Celtics get something close to #9 this year or it rolls over into an even better draft next year.

That Memphis pick is just as golden as the Brooklyn picks were.

Sure we had very high hopes for Sacramento pick as well (and who knows, maybe we get lucky in the lottery), but Memphis really has few options to get better the coming years. It's downhill from now on.
