GG Jackson had 44 and 12. I can't understand why people passed on his type of talent and size. Was he inefficient in college? Yes. But he showed a lot of ways to get buckets and boards.

He scored 97 points over his last three games. Safe to say he killed it as a second round pick.

This upcoming postseason season could be the best in a long time. Each series on both conferences are watchable!

Haven't been following much so I was surprised to see the Kings as a 9 seed, but it seems like the West in general is pretty tight around the middle. Kings won 48 games as a 3 seed last year. This year they won 46 games and are a 9 seed. Doesn't seem like injuries either as Sabonis played 82 and Fox played 74. Is it as simple as they don't play defense?

They lost Huerter and Malik Monk about the same time a couple weeks ago and really slid after that. Not Sabonis and Fox but important rotation players

The west play in tournament is extremely interesting for the off season.

Sacramento loses and they keep their pick while also looking at possibly losing Monk. Last season could very well have been their peak.

Golden State loses and you can expect significant retooling and cost cutting.

NO loses and Ingram likely goes on the trade block as they have to do something about their impending luxury tax crunch.

Lakers are gonna Laker and be in every trade rumor for a star offering Reaves and Rui (lol).

Curry and Lebron in the play-ins. Pelicans and Kings have no chance.

He also somehow took 80 shots in 3 games and had 4 assists :lol:

Every time I brought him up last year people were so dismissive. Bringing up off court issues and his inefficiency without adding the context of what his role was in college, who his teammates were, etc.

He is not shy, that is for sure. He has lots to work on in his game, but he has great positional size and strength and is an NBA athlete. He can really score the ball and rebound. I think he is a guy worth investing in and will probably outplay his draft position.

Pels are playing rattled right now.

I don't like the level of confidence that they're playing with.
