格莱姆斯接受ta采访时说：“发生的事情太疯狂了，所以我被交易走是因祸得福。”
“但我很同情他们。这个赛季我们在那里有一个紧密团结的团队。我们有很好的机会赢得比赛。但这就是NBA，球员总是会被交易的。”
格莱姆斯对卢卡从达拉斯离开的方式提出了质疑。格莱姆斯驳斥了球队对东契奇的体能和工作习惯的担忧，他说，他的前队友总是在健身房参加深夜投篮或力量训练。
“这只是围绕他的一个故事。一旦一个故事被抛出，每个人都会跟着它走，”格莱姆斯说。“不管他们怎么说，如果他有270磅，他带队进入了决赛，那就让他270磅吧。这太疯狂了。”

Grimes was shocked the Mavericks moved him in a follow-up trade for 29-year-old wing Caleb Martin, who has been out since Jan. 10 with a hip injury and still hasn’t returned. That decision alone would have been criticized, but the Dončić deal made it an afterthought.
“It’s crazy what’s going on, so it’s a blessing in disguise that I got moved,” Grimes said. “But I feel for them for sure. We had a tight-knit group over there this season. We had a good chance of winning it all. But that’s the NBA and dudes get moved all the time.”
Grimes took issue with the way Dončić has been portrayed on his way out the door from Dallas. Grimes dismissed the team’s concerns about Dončić’s conditioning and work habits, saying his former teammate was always in the gym whenever he would show up for his late-night shooting sessions or practice-day weightlifting.
“It’s just a narrative around him. Once a narrative gets thrown out there, everybody just runs with it,” Grimes said. “Whatever they’re saying, if he’s 270 (pounds) and he gets to the finals, let him be 270 then. It’s crazy.”
In any event, Dončić is on to bigger and better things with the Lakers. Grimes’ task now is to prove he can contribute to winning for a team that isn’t doing much of that anymore.
“We dropped a good amount of games since I’ve been here, but we got a lot of injuries. We’ve been close in the majority of those games,” he said. “So we know if we just had a Joel or PG or Tyrese for a couple of games, then we would’ve been winning games easily. So I’m just trying to show my winning mentality every time I step on the court.”
With the way the last two seasons have gone for the well-traveled Grimes, it’s possible he won’t be a part of whatever’s next for the 76ers and must find a fifth new home in free agency. Until then, he has a month left to show the league everything he can do and make the most of a new opportunity — again.
