This is why I'll never miss Grayson Allen

Best scenario for him would be a less athletic pat connaughton,who was a second rounder. I'm OK with DL taking Grayson at the second round, but taking him in the first round was basically a waste. I'm sure Memphis values a late first round draft pick more than Grayson Allen when they did the trade with us.

Did you even see the players who actually played in that game?

Yeah, they were on an NBA roster. You act like it was against the dudes at the YMCA.

Lol. I just looked at the box score. It had the Clippers starting 5 and they played heavy minutes. Zubac, Danilo, shamet, Bev and SA.

Did you?

So many people up in arms about two nothing fouls. If it were anyone but Grayson the first one wouldn't have been flagrant and the second might not have been. His arm barely grazed his head.

How many people play defense by swing their arms at people like that though?
 
Do we now get to admit that he has a punchable face? Cuz he really, really does.

Gotta say that I love his smirk though. He’s going to get under people’s skin for years.

Allen is setting himself up for an entire career of getting clowned by NBA players and refs.

He did that at Duke. This is just continuation of being a little baby. Seriously, who resorts to intentionally tripping players and now going to the face cuz he's getting bodied. This ain't kindergarten. Give him a binky and send him home to his mommy.

I wonder if Joe will make him cry when Memphis plays Utah.

He had a chance for a clean slate after the draft. A small chance, but nevertheless.

The kid is obnoxious though. Something about his Ted Cruz whine face triggers people, including myself.

That's it. I hadn't made the Ted Cruz connection, but that's exactly it. Also explains why my mother loves Grayson - she also loves Cruz. I tried to explain to her why people didn't like him in college, but she thinks he is amazing and if given a fair chance will be something special.

There was a thread about Grayson on another website and I counted 15 people who made negative comments about his face. People seem to hate his face. It seems like both Grayson and his critics are in the throws of something psychological and I'm slightly intrigued.

I think Archie's "Ted Cruz whine face" phrase explains it.

He must have been okay while he was here because the players seemed to like him. A good locker room perhaps rubbed off.
