The Commercial Appeal's Damichael Cole joins the show in-studio to talk all things Grizzlies including GG Jackson's recent run of efficient basketball, how Scotty Pippen Jr lights a fire in him, on the Paolo theory and if it's better to draft a bust than a #2 tier star, why the Grizzlies core didn't work, if Ja Morant will travel and be around the team the rest of the season, if we'll see Zach Edey on the court again this season, Ty Jerome's emergence and if the Grizzlies could redo his contract, if the Genesis of everything that has happened this season with Ja Morant is him not getting a contract extension, and what is the current Grizzlies core???
