if you actually follow the Grizzlies, we do not need another player like Martin. We have plenty of guys of his skill set on the roster. i know it's cool to have a guy on the nba team you like that went to the college you like. i get that, and i think it's cool too. but at the end of the day, unless Martin blossoms big time in the next couple of years, I don't see him making much, if any, an impact on the Grizzlies' chances of breaking through in the West. We need guys that can shoot from the perimeter, not another player to clog up space inside 15 feet.

FWIW, I see Martin having a career along the lines of Brandon Bass. If that were to happen, that's pretty good value for the 25th pick.

I think that the Grizzlies see potential in his jump shot. Also, the Griz just traded one bench forward and I can see Martin replacing JaMychal Green on the roster, not to mention Vince Carter is getting older. Jeff Green makes a lot of money and they may be looking to upgrade at a different position, allowing Martin to sneak in as a cheaper option.
