    Yes, because i believe he must've hit JJ's car in the parking lot. Or accidentally spilled Gatorade all over his playbook. Or used the last square of toilet paper in the team plane.

    Something. Cause JJ seems to hate him.

    I know we're trying to save some of his remaining games he's available for, but even games when he's on the active roster, he's still not seeing the court.

    Doesn’t make any sense to not play Koloko he literally can’t be worse then Len or Jemison.

    Missing games has certainly highlighted JHs value. Much better than given credit for.

    Jemison is much stronger, has an edge to him, is pretty much as quick and agile w/o as much vertical though, able to go to perimeter on D and not look stupid at all (Bronny would be well served to hold his hands the same and be as active with them) ..... and plays with the intensity of Vando out there. A case can be made he would be more valuable in the playoffs. He's rough for sure but already has looked a tad smoother in his actions the more minutes he gets.

    I'd say Jax first, Rui comes back next (very soon), finally Bron joins the team next week.

    Good to have him back .

    I thought DFS and Gabe were out because of the B2B .

    It's another loss if they both can't play

    They're back today too, it looks like.



    I think we're keeping them on there so we can rest them on the second night of these back to backs if needed for injury maintenance and not get in trouble by the league. They're starting to look harder at teams in the past week(s). They should look the other way regardless of what we decide to do because 6 games in 8 days is criminal, but I'm not giving them that much credit.

    This guy... is more important to the team than most people think. Of course, it takes one Luka Doncic to unlock him, but what a difference maker he was. If we could find another Jax over the summer, we'd be golden.

    Nice touch around the rim

    I’d take a flyer on Marvin Bagley or Bol Bol next year as his backup.

    Hayes lob threat opens up the offense so much - again he's not even that good but that combination of size and hops with Luka is deadly and something that no one else can replicate on the roster

    Jaxon finished some tough shots at the rim as well as the great set up lobs. Plays hard out there.
