Grimes looked kinda dogshit last year. Hopefully he can get his confidence back in Dallas.

He wasn’t even that bad. His defense was still elite just his offense was shaky and Donte was just better once Grimes got hurt.

If he shoots just like he did his sophomore season then Mavericks got a steal. Pistons are so dumb to make this trade

He displayed so much potential that sophomore season. Even beyond the 3 and D he actually has a lightning fast first step which is so helpful attacking closeouts. And he’s a smart secondary passer for a role player.

It feels like he just needs to be healthy and get comfortable in his role.
