According to the Memphis Edge:

The Grizzlies are talking to the Wizards about a trade that would send Javaris Crittenton to Washington and allow Memphis to reclaim the first-round pick it dealt for the rights to Spaniard Juan Carlos Navarro in 2007.

That’s the deal. Nothing else to it from the Grizzlies’ end. The deal has not been completed. A league source said the trade likely will die if it isn’t finalized within the next couple of hours.

Personally, I'd like to see it happen.  Wizards are desperate for a decent playmaker at point and Crittenton has some upside.  How do you guys feel about this?

I was just thinking about Crittenton the other day

He’s buried down the bench with Kyle Lowry and Mike Conley in front of him at the point, not to mention OJ Mayo. We desperately need a young PG to develop, and I see some potential in him. I’m definitely vouching for this move if it goes down.

Great Move

As long as AD goes to the bench for the rest of the season.

I don't believe the Wiz can send nothing back

as they don’t have a trade exception, per the ol’ trade machine.

3SoB is on this, btw.
