[Horton] Marcus Smart screaming at his Grizzlies teammates “it’s embarrassing, it’s embarrassing” among other things


Didn’t see this get posted yet, it felt noteworthy.

The Grizzlies went on an 11-3 run coming out of this timeout, so I think he succeeded in firing them up to some extent. But it was too little, too late.

  1. i feel bad for him, man. even with the Ja suspension, i thought we were trading him to a good situation on a playoff team, not whatever the fuck this is

  2. Makes it even funnier Jaren is picking his nose and staring off into wonderland during this whole video

  3. They cut the lead to 12 and went on a 11-3 run right after this timeout so his peptalk did help somewhat. Grizzlies are just too injured

  4. This really hurts to see. I know the Grizzlies fans appreciate him, but I want the team to be healthy for Marcus.

  5. i mean the lakers have been missing 3-4 big rotation guys on and off and it’s clearly fucking them some games for sure, even with AD and bron, so i can only imagine missing morant and like 5+ rotation dudes would be like

    also going from a winning team to a losing team as a competitive guy is shit

    if anyone else watches sports, ‘loser mentality’ is a like.. serious, real thing that happens

    you get guys who just get use to losing and that becomes the culture, and it can get so bad that you need to like blow up the team to get rid of it, cause it can affect like the entire roster and coaching staff

    hockey teams feel like one of the best examples, you can have generational levels of talent that get put on a shit team and they just wither away and you can literally see their competitive soul being sucked away, some young talent never even recovers from it too even if they get out of it, cause the like.. mental aspect is just fucked

    gonna guess that the culture is extra shit on the grizz right now, be it from injuries or a bit of unrest with ja stuff, and for a competitive guy like smart it just completely rubs him the wrong way

  6. It’s gonna be interesting to see what this team is like when Ja comes back. I don’t know how the chemistry will be between him and Smart, ideally Ja can grow as a player by having someone like Smart around.

  7. I’m genuinely curious about what the Grizzlies are doing now for this season when Ja and other guys return. Is their record already too cooked to make the playoffs and will they just tank this season? Or will they try to overcome this record and seriously contend again? Also are they willing to trade certain players such as Smart?
