JJ where do u get these mailbag submissions?
The grizzlies are the embarrassing team of the year. Last year it was the suns. They really talk that talk, finished 2nd in the west and didn't even get out of the first round lol
JJ for me right now u r the best analyst right now!
Every player I’ve heard played through major injuries payed for it with their career soon after, IT, Ralph Sampson, bill Walton, d rose, kd with the calf injury that led to his Achilles tear, list goes on 1 game or series ain’t worth sacrificing the rest of your career
Cliches cliches💯💯💯💯💪💪💪🌻🌻🌻
Players with something to prove in the playoffs. What about D'Angelo Russell? Isn't he playing for a new contract?
My love of the game. Injuries never kept me from b I've been injured since I was seven years old. So no. Pain I am no longer of
Coaches. Teachers stay. But build to let students. Players move on To.take the knowledge with and use
JJ’s gonna make a great coach someday
Shout out to JJ for standing up to the "Haters" on First Take…
Obi Toppin’s play will get him paid
2:26
Also, players have to protected from themselves…
Sorry the most underrated role guy has to be Gabe Vincent. But I knew once the Celtics traded for Derrick White they were going to be way better.
live from deep space 9 my brother
First Question. Is it crazy to say Austin Reeves? Averaging a shade under 20 in the playoffs and posed for a deep run.
As always, Tommy has to take a shot at the Kings. Unreal
wasnt banes drafted by the celtics and traded to memphis on draft nigh?
player that has the most to gain from showing out in the playoffs is austin reaves
Most to gain is Tatum. He just needs a chip to be crowed the next guy after Lebron/kd/Steph phase out
He has an opportunity to be one of the greatest winners of all time n a top 10 player.
Already 3 ECF and a finals appearance. If jays can stay together they’ll compete for chips for the next 5-10 yrs
A fitting end to a disgraceful season.
LeDad Dicked
Deangelo Russell has the most to gain. He expiring and could cement a Brynson similar contract 4-120+
Boundaries set
JJ you definitely can play through a meniscus tear especially if you in the playoffs, even though I’m not sayin you should I’m sayin you can and be fine
Hi JJ, Just wanted te let you know that your totally right. After going through 2 meniscus tears in 3 year, i understand what these players are going through. Living with pain and being unable to walk for months is no joke. Thanks for speaking up about this!!
Rui Hachimura is up there as far as underrated guys
Desmond defintly deserves a max he's the best player on the grizzlies
If Philly can run a good offensive system they would be as good as the Celtics
I'll always remember one old head bragging they had only one doctor on their team and they were less injured. Like no you weren't diagnosed with as much, you had short careers and worse post career quality of life. Larry Bird played through a concussion before the massive 2 billion dollar whatever NFL lawsuit and all the research that went into it to show how debilitating head trauma can be. It's like eating off lead painted plates or insulating your house with asbestos and calling that tough with these comparisons.
Still Lakers haters. Great works guys.
Tommy's jacket is TOUGH!!!
A player playing through a concussion definitely shouldn’t be glorified or upheld as a standard lol that’s just crazy
austin reaves
Torn 2 muscles, it's like having permanent cramp anytime you move the muscle
They played thru that stuff but that also took years off their carrers
JJ always talking like old players from 90s or 80s couldn’t play but all he can do is shoot 3s has no lateral speed no handle no defense and no athleticism and he lasted years but 6ft10 Larry bird with passing rebounding and shooting from anywhere on the court couldn’t play who played in the fastest pace era
JJ completely missing on his take. Not accounting for all the DNP/Load Management games Kawhi has taken over the past decade. On top of that he is the least engaging superstar in NBA history, he can at least be a better representative of the team towards the fans.
I used to hurt my knees and ankles all the time skateboarding and now they be giving out randomly lol
