The conversation on Lebron James "hating" on Memphis and asking about the franchise has ignited a "pro-Memphis" movement, including an internet influencer (GFed on X) coming to the Grizzlies final home game of the season and sampling downtown. More:

And while the conversation has arrived on the national stage, it's never been about Memphis hotels and creature comforts as 92.9's George Ruggiero pointed out to Ryan Clark on X here:
People aren't upset bc LeBron doesn't like to play here or bc whoever's had bad hotel experiences, frankly most don't give a damn about that. People are upset bc the face of the league is advocating for the NBA to rip a franchise away from a fanbase and community that loves it https://t.co/6gYtJamy4N pic.twitter.com/3rxVB7mZj1
