No matter what your opinion of OJ Mayo is, yours is clearly retarded CC, Josh McRoberts isn't worth him. Josh McRoberts is nothing more than a role player while OJ Mayo has a ton of untapped potential that would really shine through with a change of scenery, just like it did in his first two seasons.

McRoberts ain't no scrub either though. He's a very talented and versatile player.

I'm not even that big of a fan of Josh McRoberts TBH (surprising because he went to Duke). They both are underachieving players, the difference is everyone here is acting like OJ Mayo is an all-star waiting to happen, when he's not. Like I pointed out earlier, he's gotten worse every season he's been in the league. That's not "getting the right opportunities", that's just fact.

J-Mac will never be a star in the league but he's a skilled big man who could have given the Grizzlies a lift as a backup PF/C that they didn't have. And they were getting Brandon Rush too.

OJ has not gotten worse every year he's been in the league, he got worse this past year because they used him off the bench for no reason and he wasn't happy about it and clearly didn't put forth nearly as much effort.

He was better in his second season than his first, his PPG dropped by a point while his FG% went up .20 points with his 3P% staying the same, a decrease in TOPG and FPG.

Brought him off the bench for no reason? Stop it man. Tony Allen, as has been well documented, was one of the biggest reasons for the Grizzlies' improvement last year. He was much more valuable to that team than OJ Mayo could have been.

djt has a hard time sensing sarcasm even without the tags lol.


anywas, i dont want to get into this right now but mayo and mcbob are both good players. mayo HAS all-star potential STILL. will he hit it, probably not until he gets a legit shot on a NEW team.. so not anytime soon.

mcbob is a decent backup who brings energy and EVERY championship team needs a guy like that.

had this deal gone through then both teams who have made out. pacers get a good two guard who would have started. memphis would have gotten TWO good role players who would have played their role nice.

didnt happen though, lets move on. lol
