I would be shocked if Jones isn't in the hunt for DPOY at some time in his career. This kid is special.

Herb is multiple DPOY in the making. Dude is Caruso with length on defense. It's over.

Phx's offense looks pretty limited without Booker. No volume scorer.

I don't know, I've seen him do this several times in the playoffs alone out of frustration. He's the ultimate competitor and tends to lose his **** at times when somebody is getting the best of him.

I'm an Isiah Thomas fanboy and he was the same exact way. It is what it is.
