Utah's in the playoff hunt and Mitchell is ROY. Markkanen is a Euro Porzingus clone. Kuzma plays for the Lakers who think every 20 year old that ever hit a jumper for them is the future.

I didn't say there was any nationwide agenda, that's another dumb strawman you just made up. Fact is the national guys don't spend much time watching the team w the worst record in the league. Also first impressions go a long way (see: Tatum) and Josh looked like he was headed for straight up bust territory until 2018. Since January he's totally turned it around, scored in double figures constantly, percentages went up, numbers up across the board, he hung 36 on Golden State, put 27 and what would have been the game winning clutch JUMPSHOT on Houston, put up better numbers than your boy in their game last week and has been one of the best rookies in the 2nd half of the season. The overall negativity you've displayed would only be used by a clueless casual that said some dumb things and is now too stubborn to admit ignorance. :coffee:
Even the guys that focus on this kind of stuff are low on Jackson, just listened to the Duncd on podcast and they said he’d be lucky to be Iggy at his best and has shot awful while having some offensive talent on his team. I think similar he’s Iggy if he can get some strength and better offensive skills.

Duncd’ on podcast if I remember correctly said they would take KCP over Devin Booker. There is definitely a thing where the National media guys don’t watch Phoenix like that and talk in absolutes.

The national media doesn’t watch all but 12 squads. They rely on local beat writers for the rest of they assume knowing nobody will call them out if they’re wrong

Well that was a bad loss. smh.

And injuries are happening at the wrong time. Harkless is already out and now Dame rolled his ankle.

Sorry skoob it's best if portland loses to OKC in round 1 as i don't want to see the warriors sweep them or give them game 3 and win in 5

Yeah it’s an issue with the basketball media. Speaking in absolutes about a team and barely watching them.
