This was a good move for Memphis. Darrell Arthur is a better player than Speights and West and Vujacic can more than replace Wayne Ellington.

I love this for Memphis. Saved cash and made some smart signings to make up for the depth they lost. I could see Delonte West helping them a lot.

Not every team has $100 million TV deals. Memphis can't be in the luxury tax over and over again.

Hopefully, whatever D-Leaguers are signed can replicate Speights and Ellington's abilities at a fraction of the cost.

Those are some underestimated players.

Hope Memphis just skips over Bayless and offers PT to Wroten. I think Wroten will be at least as good as him with upside for much more.

Wroten might turn out just like Bayless... never getting the chance to play significant minutes.

How awesome was Wroten last night tho!?

Had a great impact in the first half at least - didn't catch much of the second
