No O?!?!? :o

John has greatly improved his post game and his ball handling this season. He's no Jayson Tatum, but he's easily the most talented scoring big man on the squad.

Ugh, he can certainly be efficient, but man if his shot isn't falling he offers little else. JJ has the higher ceiling on both ends. He's going to be Snyders personal pet project. They will definitely want to move on from Collins' contract by next season.

I believe you're correct. $25.3 million next season and $26.5 million the next. I'm not expecting much in return for Collins.

I hope JJ does workout due to what we invested in him. Our high lottery picks aren't looking like star talents.

Collins developed his ballhandling skills and now has a nifty spin move as well as the ability to attack closeouts from the perimeter.

The young man has come a long way. he'd do well next to a supreme floor spacer/passer like Jokic.

He's looking like a starting caliber PF again.

Don't want to jinx it but his 3 ball looks like it's back. I'd be back in the fold if he can hit at those percentages during the POs.

He can actually be productive when he isn't stuck sitting in the corner all game every game.
