    Golden State really exposed Jaren Jackson's complete inability to grab a defensive rebound. He played 38 minutes last night and somehow managed to only grab 4 defensive rebounds. Motherfucker is 6'11, 242 lbs., and an athletic freak. Kyle Anderson and Melton combined for just 21 minutes and got five rebounds! Literally the only two players on the court last night that had a worse rebounds per 36 minute rate than JJJ was Dillon Brooks (and only because he got the same # of boards in one more minute played) and Ziare Williams. If you just count Kevon Looney's offensive rebounds, he had damn next 3x the # of total rebounds that Jackson had.

    Man has been in the league for 4* years and has made two trips to the playoffs. Not once in either the regular season or the playoffs has he managed to average more than 4.6 defensive rebounds per game. His best effort per 36, not counting last year when he only played 11 games since that is such a small sample size, was this year at 5.7 with a 16.9% defensive rebound rate. That per 36 stat ranks just 73rd overall and that defensive rebound rate ranked just 59th for all qualified players and just 18th for PFs. James Harden, DeAnthony Melton, and Danilo Gallinari had better defensive rebound %s than JJJ

    At some point he has to get it through his head that you have to grab a rebound, not just try to block everything.

    *If you are including last year when he only played 11 regular-season games

    Great. Looking forward to hearing more about how much they've suffered since their last championship. And maybe we can settle the discussion to see who had it worse recently them or lakers fans.

    1 - Blazers
    2 - Pacers
    3 - Pistons

    Suns have the better squad, but I’m going with the best player + I don’t trust CP3 in game 7s.

    And I can’t stand that mfer.
