    Is this guy dancing already? Sigh. He’s in preseason form with that too.

    I think this guy is more interested in being a fashionista than 6th man of the year. He looks worse to me. He can’t hide behind Swaggy and Lou this year. Step up JC.

    Yeah he looked OK...he did score for us but he had some maddening plays as well that were typical JC...

    I want to see him play next to Ball more in the next game.

    Guy is too bipolar. Sometimes too ball dominant, sometimes distributes really well. Sadly, we need his scoring though...we have very few other options.

    Have to give JC credit for his game tonight, we really needed his scoring at a point there where we were struggling and Randle was killing us. 17 points, hit some threes, was aggressive, but not too out of control. Loved that one move he gave Jackson in the paint, got him with the forearm, stepped through for the easy layup.

    We desperately need that kind of contribution. Since Lou Will getting traded the bench productivity hasnt been the same.

    An in control JC is someone we need, he can get his when we desperately need a basket. It's when he turns into a black hole that annoys me and has me packing his bags. I say give him back up PG mins even though he isn't good at it but he is loads better than Ennis/Caruso.

    17 points in 17 minutes. Very efficient game. I like what I’m seeing out of JC these first two games.

    Mark Jackson commented about how Clarkson talked about reigning in his speed when it comes to plays. So far so good.

    I never thought I'd be happier watching Jordan than Julius, but it happened last night. Good game from the kid.

    He's actually looked really good in the 6th man role thus far this season. He's an able scorer and can do so in a variety of ways. He's kind of the only guy we have with that skill set. So I'm glad to see him thriving in the role. Keep it up JC!

    teams get away with playing non-pgs as backups, and given the quality of our backup pgs, i'd just play clarkson (and maybe ingram) there.

    sirron would remind you that

    :MagicmagicTW:

    told him to go get 6 MOTY. That traditionally means scoring off the bench. So I expect this:

    Pretty much every time he's put in the lineup
