Ivey? Jackson? Trade? Harden?

Jackson and Harden, presumably.

Looks like will see if Jackson can play.

Either Harden will run PG and Lazar Hayward will get minutes or Jackson will get run. I'd like to see Jackson.

much rather see Jackson get minutes than Lazar

Jackson over Lazar. Bad time too considering that Cook has been having trouble with his goggles.

I'm hoping to see Jackson but maybe a lot of Harden too handling in pick-and-rolls, even more so than usual and that's obviously a good thing. It's like poetry seeing him handle the rock in pick-and-rolls.

Pacer fan here. Reggie Jackson was my sleeper for this past draft he is really good. You guys will be thrilled with him I guarantee it. I wanted him on my Pacers but we didnt take him I though he would be perfect as our 1/2 guy who can score in bunches off the bench. IMO he has the potential to be a very good starter and was really underrated in the draft last year. I hate that Maynor got hurt but I am glad I get to see Reggie get his shot. You guys have probably the best backups in the NBA Maynor is probably the best backup pg he is just solid. But I think Reggie will prove his worth and will be a better player than Maynor in the long run. I love his background smart kid and has the mentality it takes to be great. The Thunder have a great problem on there hand Reggie will really surprise you guys IMO he was the steal of the draft. Efficient scorer who is also a great passer and decision maker and also a hell of an athlete. He is a rookie so of course there will be growing pains but this kid will be really really good in 3 yrs.

Reggie was probably the best pg defender I scouted last year he is really a fantastic player on defense.

appreciate the scouting report. I have high hopes for Jackson as well. He seems to have a very well rounded skill set, can't wait to see him develop.

Reggie Jackson guy here too. Presti obviously knows his players a la Tony Parker, Ibaka, Harden, Durant so on and so on. Too bad about the Maynor injury, but this allows Reggie to step up(also for me to watch him play more) and you guys won't be disappointed. I was hoping he'd last long enough in the draft so my Celtics could get him, but Presti is just too good...hahaaa lol.

over halfway through the season and I am really enjoying Reggie Jackson and the game he brings. He is doing a very good job playing hard on defense, and offensively he is playing very unselfish ball with spurts of showing some scoring potential.

he has the total package to be a very good Floor General on a good team. Should be interesting to see how the PG rotation unfolds next season with Maynor coming back from acl injury.
