NEW YORK, April 7, 2008

JJ deserves every acolade possible right now. It's not just the points either, he has also been fantastic defensively.

You got to love this guy. He's given us all we need. A true All-star. Congrtas JJ. The best is yet to come !

he's finally woken up from the nap he took during the first 5 months of the season.

JJ won player of the month in the 5th month of the season.

I'm happy for JJ. While he's still dealing with an extensive amount of pressure I feel Mike Bibby has helped very much, and even some of the rest of the Hawks have taken some of the pressure off JJ. I hope Josh Smith can demand a double team more next season.
