On Tuesday, the Memphis Grizzlies have announced that they have hired Taylor Jenkins as the team's head coach for next season, and he will immediately be tasked with helping the franchise jumpstart its rebuild. Jenkins definitely has a lot of experience, and he learned from one of the best coaches in the NBA today, Mike Budenholzer.

Jenkins has worked as Budenholzer's top assistant with the Atlanta Hawks and the Milwaukee Bucks, and he using the knowledge that he acquired under coach Mike to make sure that the Grizzlies are always on the right track next season. The Athletic's Peter Edmiston had a chance to ask Jenkins about the most memorable line he learned from Budenholzer, and his answer might surprise you.

But really, there is so much randomness in basketball. Your coverage didn’t work. Why? Well, because they hit a three. But it’s like because of the screening angle before the pick and roll, our guy chased and did it perfectly, then the guy went early and the screen was slipped, like there’s so many factors. There are so many situations that can crop up. One of the best lines I ever learned from Bud is, ‘S— happens.’ Sometimes you do everything perfectly and the guy hits a shot. That’s why I think basketball is so beautiful.

Coach Bud might've learned that line from his experience with the Hawks, where he led the team to the second-best record in the league back in 2015, only to be swept by LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers in the second round of the playoffs. That season, Atlanta was one of the best teams in the NBA because of how well they moved the ball and how they made each other better.

But as Jenkins said, no matter how great a team is, if one of the opposing players hit a shot, there's pretty much nothing they can do but to move on and execute even better in the next possession.

Jenkins understands that the Grizzlies will have more downs than ups next season, and there will be times wherein they will be playing an almost-perfect game just to lose. He wants his players to remember this specific line from his former mentor, because it will help them grow as a team.
