I suspect it is something not basketball relatedWow. Why now? It just seems strange to give up on the season like this when you're tied for the 4th seed in the notoriously brutal Western Conference. This feels like a front office power play of some kind. It would be harder to justify firing Jenkins in the off-season if the Grizzlies were to make noise in the playoffs.
I'm not necessarily interested in a Jenkins hire for the Kings, but I suppose it's another name to consider if the Kings do a proper head coaching search in the off-season.
So should we be expecting Mike Malone and Steve Kerr to blast the Grizz front office, or do they only hold vitriol for Sacramento?
Morant reportedly not liking the offense and if that has anything to do with the firing, then that changes some of the theories about Jenkins possibly being a casualty of the elevation of a genius offense assistant coach.
Memphis has had one of the best most balanced offensives in the NBA. As well as being different.
We’ll see if there’s changes to the offense and they prioritize Morants ego more.
it could just be Ja trying to work the interim coach
This guy can coach. Winning.not sure what type of coaching style Jenkins has, but his teams kept consistently winning in his tenure. Whatever team hires him next I will be keeping an eye out and see how he changes team culture
This guy can coach. Winning.
You should ask Ja Morant that question.what type of schemes does he run?
The one where no screens take place. But I read that it was LaRoche that had this tactic and not the one getting the interim head coach position.what type of schemes does he run?

Iisalo did miracles in Europe wherever he was especially last season in Paris that continues to do well with Tiago Splitter now as the head coach.
so a Warriors type of scheme, lots of off ball movement and off ball screens to open certain spaces on the court
Actually, very little screening, compared to other teams. See about 11 minutes in for number of screens if you are interested. But the whole video is informative.The one where no screens take place.
