The 3 ball has also opened up the rest of his game. Shooting it with such confidence.
Need DD to get some confidence on his now.

JJ is actively bad at handling the ball in the PnR...particularly in clutch moments.

He gets the ball snatched way to often.

This turn around, fade-away mid range jumpshot brings a tear to my middle aged eyes. :cry:

JJ is officially better than Joe and Trae and Smitty, but not on Nique's level.

To be honest. I think the Hawks make the playoffs but don't make a deep run and JJ finishes as an All NBA 2nd or 3rd team.

Next year, I think the Hawks can do what the Pistons are doing this year and finish top 2 in the east and JJ finishes 1st Team All NBA and top 3 in MVP voting.

JJ should NOT get the MIP Award.
Jalen Johnson should be an All Star and All NBA selection instead.

Jalen Johnson is cureently 2nd in MIP odds at +220. $100 on it pays $220.

Deni Avdija leads at -175

Third place is Keyonte George +1000

No help to Jokic is 4th, Michael Porter Jr +3500

NAW is 5th +3500
