Are you kidding me? He has been a solid player, but not even close to a career worthy of retiring a number. |

I don't agree with it but for a franchise that's never reached the Finals let alone won their division, I can see why they're doing it. Do you think Derrick's number gets retired sometime down the road? |

I say good for the Grizz. good player that actually played in lesser city by choice. Assume he was a fan favorite. Does OKC retire Durant's number? |

Randolph made Grizzlies basketball and the city of Memphis relevant in the NBA. As for Derrick, I'm not sure. I could definitely see him come back here to end his career if the rebuild turns successful. That story makes it more likely #1 gets retired. |

Do you think Derrick's number gets retired sometime down the road? Yeah I don't really have a problem with it. He was the heart and soul of some very good Memphis teams over an eight year period and those teams were a pretty memorable unit and by far the best so far in franchise history(obviously it's a pretty bad, short history). |

I love Randolph as a player. No doubt he was the heart and soul of their teams. I just think there needs to be a higher standard for retiring a number. By that standard the Bulls should retire Noahs number |

By that standard the Bulls should retire Noahs number Nah Z Bo was better for longer on a team with WAY less history behind it. I think you should have more of an issue with Miami and Bosh than this if you're really picky on standards. Plus, it's #50. Who gives a fuck? |

By that standard the Bulls should retire Noahs number From what I'm reading him being a major community figure played a large role in it. I don't know the details but that's what the articles are saying. I doubt they retire his number without him being a community pillar. I don't have a problem with it - it's a local thing. |

Stupid law, I'm sure it will be dismissed once they realize he's not a drug dealer, just a rich dude who can afford to buy in bulk. |

My boss says "5 LBS" And he has this drug dealer burner phone...  Im hoping for comedy sake, he WAS dealing it. Lest we forget Ron Artest applying at Best Buy |

My buddy buys a pound at a time for personal use so he doesn't have to make multiple trips to the dealer. And he is just using it for himself and a handful of friends when he goes golfing. I could see a guy like Randolph buying 2 pounds at a time for personal use and for parties of which I assume he attends a few. But yea, it would be funny if the mega millionaire is dealing dime bags in the off season. |

What is it with Randolph being a complete dumbass whenever he's not with Memphis? Guy was a disaster before going to the Grizzlies, and now gets popped about a month after leaving the Grizzlies. If I were him, I would never step foot out of the state of Tennessee again. |
