I'm not trying to trade Josh Jackson.

We're showing some hustle and defense. Ayton looks engaged. Dragan got the start and is still terrible.

I remain a Josh Jackson fan. The dude cares, plays hard, and actually does things on the court. I think he is going to figure things out and become a productive player. I hope he does so playing for us.

Jackson is the only one even keeping us competitive lately.

And...he hasn't scored since.

This refusal to get him the ball is getting old fast.

I remain concerned about Josh Jackson, but I have to admit, lately he's been balling. Lately he is often among our leading scorers and just seems like he actually wants to win the damn game.

Yes, a nice, rare quality on this team.

We should be locking teams up on the perimeter but instead guys literally get the to the rim untouched.

Jackson's been our best player by far tonight and Oubre's been great too. Notice how Jamal got a T over non calls and all of a sudden Jackson and Oubre started getting to the line? All it took was Oubre getting hit in the face and losing a contact.

No sign of Ayton after the 1st qtr.

At least Jackson makes up for his mistakes, like on the play with Ayton.

4 turnovers, 5 steals.

JJ has more assists tonight than TJ has had all year.

I’m starting to really appreciate Jackson lately. Gotta give it to him, he gives 100% effort every night. Sometimes it’s great and other times terrible, but I have hope for him for the future (his shot aside).

I’m thinking I want Oubre and Warren gone, and to hang on to Bridges and Jackson. I’m not married to it, but I’m leaning that way.
