But hes not..and that’s why he should shut up

People forget that when Ja was out, Dillon lead the way with bane to keep the grizzlies competitive. I think we overhyped the backlash he got from the Lakers series that we forgot he’s great at what he does on the floor.

The media control people opinions. These days people have very short attention span. First Take, Undisputed, and other outlets have short takes. Not many people sitting through an entire NBA game. Which leads to them believing everything the media put out.
