A few things that came to me today in deep thought lol We as Grizz fans are dealing with a wild roller coaster of emotions since the deflating end to the “team photo” 2021-22 “gold accessories” season - which was by far one of the most fun seasons ever The next season had so much promise Top in the West and still winning after moving off of two role players in Melt & SloMo Got our first Christmas Day Game & our superstar got his first signature shoe And then the season derailed •Fine in the west comments received backlash •Crushed in first ever Christmas Day Game •Lakers loss and Shannon Sharpe incident •Adams injury •Clarke injury •Ja suspension & other off court incidents •Ja injury •Dillon Brooks nonsense •Smacked in the first round by the Lakers Then comes the next season •Ja suspended again •Adams out for season with mishandled surgery •No real feel of what Smart can be for us due to injuries pre and in-season •Ja injury •Ja civil suit •Historically Injured Season From Hell That’s a lot for a fanbase to endure although we had some very bright moments along the way in being blessed with two vital rotation pieces in Vince Williams and GG Jackson - with GG having star potential It makes you anxious, it makes you beg for transparency and transactions It makes you want to see a team that can compete at the highest level after a two year roller coaster ride of emotions It makes you question your own logic It makes you feed into national and even local narratives of doubt But it’s ok to believe It’s ok to have faith that our young squad lead by stars entering their prime surrounded by many that are poised for a breakout can compete on the highest level The lack of trust and fear is understandable but it’s also ok to believe again
