I thought his switchability on defense from the big position, his activity on the glass, it was so important to what the Grizzlies did. And frankly, when the Grizzlies won their one playoff series, with this current group under Taylor Jenkins, it was because Brandon Clark was incredible. The Timberwolves went out and traded for Rudy Gobert because Brandon Clark destroyed them in a playoff series.

They couldn't keep Brandon Clark off the glass. So that was a proven playoff performer. And even Santiago Dama, as good as he's been this year, he's completely unproven in the playoffs. And then we go back to the Zach Eady. Is Zach Eady going to be the guy you depend on? He's losing minutes to Jay Huff. So it's like, I think Brandon Clark was crucial to their playoff plans. And...

Once he went down, I was like, oh, I would now be actually really surprised if the Grizzlies are able to escape the first round.

Yeah, it's weird when you just think about... I guess it all comes down to expectations of Ja being a superstar and being an all-NBA-level player. Like, he's still... has what he's averaging 22 and seven and the Grizzlies have a fantastic record when he plays. So like he's still excellent. He's still all-star level. Of course, his frame and the way he plays seems like it leads to injury.

As far as some of the injury reporting disparity, Chris Harrington, who covers the Grizzlies for the daily Memphian. I think he was wanting to point out like the NBA doesn't like it when you say a guy's sore. you have like a limited number of times you could say your players out with soreness. So I think that's probably maybe if we connect the dots again, sure.

That's why the hamstring sort of became a hamstring strain. So, so John Morant, like the NBA, it wouldn't be, I don't know. The Grizzlies wouldn't run a foul of the player participation policy, but obviously, yeah.

The John Morant thing, because he is a superstar, he's a social media superstar, you know, the jersey sales, he's the Grizzlies' biggest player in their history, easily one of the most well-known NBA players, and he's crucial to the Grizzlies. If I had 100% confidence in John Morant's health and ability to finish a playoff series, I would not be mourning the Brandon Clark loss quite like I am.
