Giving the Warriors a chance doesn't work.
The Warriors managed to pick the best opponent in the NBA playoffs in the West, the Kings, but they became the dish themselves, losing 94-118.
If the Warriors win, they can face the Pelicans, who may not have a fat tiger (hamstring injury), and then catch the final train to the playoffs.
It's a pity that there is no if, everything is over.
The Warriors are likely to disintegrate this summer and start a rebuild.
It means that next season's West will have earth-shaking changes.
There will inevitably be teams that will take the opportunity to rise and take the place of this dynastic team.
The Grizzlies, who are third from bottom in the West this season, are undoubtedly the most ambitious.
The star Morant recently boasted that if the team is fully healthy, the Grizzlies can win the championship next season.
Morant is really always confident, and he still remembers his former saying that "there is no opponent in the West".
Today, there are many giants in the West, such as the Warriors, who were eliminated in the play-offs, and this prosperous era is as Morant wants.
To get back to the point, it can't be said that the Grizzlies have no chance of winning the championship next season, they were still quite tough before this season, and the 21-23 season ranked second in the West in the regular season for two consecutive years.
This season, it was because of Morant's off-court troubles and a massive injury wave across the team that he temporarily became a bully.
With all the players in place, the Grizzlies' main players next season include Morant, Bane, who averages 23.7 points per game this season, Jalen Jr., who averages 22.5 points per game, and Smart, who is also DPOY, and other strong helpers.
According to Morant, the Grizzlies management will strengthen this summer offseason, but I'm afraid that the former is too young to know that there is still a big pie in the world.
Regardless, next season's Grizzlies are a force to be reckoned with, and they will make a comeback to bring the already turbulent West back against each other.
It is worth mentioning that Rose, everyone's favorite, also made an official decision recently, personally saying that he will continue to play for the Grizzlies next season.
Rose signed a two-year, $6.55 million base salary contract with the Grizzlies last offseason, and he has started seven of 24 games this season, averaging eight points, 1.9 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 16.6 minutes per game.
The reason why the Grizzlies signed Rose is not that they want him to be able to run fast on the court, but that they hope that he can use his role as a mentor to help guide Morant to "change his ways" and truly lead the team forward as a mature leader from now on to accomplish those seemingly unattainable great goals.
Rose has been Morant's idol since he was a child, and the two have similar playing styles and experiences, so there should be a wonderful chemistry, but the number of times they have worked together this season is quite limited, so I haven't seen it so far.
Seeing the news that Rose has decided to return to Memphis next season, I believe that many people can't wait to cheer for the Grizzlies, hoping that Morant can do what he says.
The reason is simple, everyone wants to see Rose end his career with his first championship in the last year of his career, and even the last year of his career, so that the roses can bloom again and be more beautiful than ever.
There is no one who does not love Rose, no one who is not conquered by his indomitable soul and fighting spirit, and his inspirational spiritual power will also inspire countless followers, which is the greatness that God can never take away!
