Not too shabby so far

Pretty bad outing for him.

If they get Adams back next game, at least there's less of a chance he fouls out.

The great ones always find a way….to foul out. :doh

We live to fight another game. And now I’m only 4 away from Jaren’s 2019-2020 Prizm Rainbow! 3 of those are the 1/1s unfortunately

Hey, we get to celebrate here once in awhile, right? I think everyone just got a taste of the vision. Now, we just need it for two more.

Pathetic display from the GSW - really hope they struggle to get back on the horse and it goes to game 7 in Memphis.
JJJ played well.

cardbored · 05-15-2022, 03:51 PM

In the exit interviews today, Jenkins said JJJ has a lengthy off-season plan, including creating out of the post. The usual stuff was there too (strength/body, shooting), but that was an interesting note.

Stress fracture surgery for JJJ, per WOJ. Out 4-6 months. Not sure when it happened, but this sucks for his offseason development.

Agree. Should have dumped his cards 2 years ago.

He just played a 78-game season... Ja has never eclipsed 67.

And if it's going to happen, getting surgery at the end of June is much better than it happening in camp or pre-season.

4 months puts him at the end of October, ie - when the season begins.

Wouldn't say I agree with that. He's really only had two major injuries in his career. He got banged up a good bit this year and every game he missed this season was more of a maintenance/rest management DNP instead of a legitimate injury.

Sure the meniscus and now the stress fracture are unfortunate injuries, but someone being made of glass to me seems more like the AD type where the dude just gets hurt stepping onto the court or getting out of bed. I surely hope he can be more like the superhuman Giannis type where his leg can almost snap off backwards and then he plays two games later with an "MCL strain". Fingers crossed because the Grizz are so fun to watch!

I hope you're right. Just constantly feels like two steps forward, one step back with him.

That I can agree with. He can be so frustrating to watch sometimes. He has so much potential and he seems to be his own biggest enemy about 90% of the time.

If he can put it all together he’s at worst a 20 and 10 guy while being a top 3 defender, floor stretching big, and matchup nightmare.

Just depends on when or if he puts his complete game together.

cardbored · 11-27-2022, 09:38 PM

After his first 5 games this year, he's scored 20+ in his last 4 (he's never done that before). Feels like he's playing bigger, getting to the rim, and not fouling as much. Let's hope the efficiency stays up. Defensively, he still looks great.

Over his last 9 games:

Quote:

20.0 PPG 6.1 RPG 3.0 BPG 1.2 SPG 54.5 FG% 43.2 3P% 67 TS% in just 26.7 MPG

... and this is while still on minutes restriction. Should be top-3 in DPOY voting this year, unless he turns it up a notch once minutes restriction is over, then sky is the limit.

The_Reverend · 12-12-2022, 08:18 AM

I still have all of this. He is definitely frustrating to follow, but just maybe he will be consistent and not have the setbacks.

daeve · 12-12-2022, 08:33 PM

4 blocks in the 1st Q tonight.

daeve · 01-09-2023, 12:05 AM

now sits atop the D epm ... and 7th overall.

Vegas knows. DPOY odds have recently shifted to him as the favorite. 8 more stocks tonight. Trip is locked in.
