Quick Hits...

--Watched the greatest quarter of Reggie Jackson’s life against Portland.  He was unstoppable.  26 points in the 4th quarter alone.  He should send a thank you letter to Damion Lillard and CJ McCollum though.  He was definitely hot and hit some great shots but there were also plenty of red carpet like lanes to the hoop. 

--What if  the Morris twins switched places and it’s actually Markief in Detroit and Marcus is still in Phoenix.  That could be an alternate explanation why Detroit Morris is suddenly a better player than Phoenix Morris! (Maybe Phoenix Morris isn’t tanking!)

--New Yorkers are starting to be happy with the Porzingis pick.  He’s super long and is very skilled and has more fire than people gave him credit for, but if the Knicks had picked Mudiay he’d be well on his way to owning NYC.  They love their point guards here and Mudiay has a super NYC style game.  He can really pass and his shot looks way better than I thought it would given the scouting reports I’d read.  He’s big and strong and will be a really good defender down the line.  Of course he turns the ball over a lot and makes mistakes but it usually takes point guards a long time to learn the NBA game.  He's already way ahead of the curve.  I like Porzingis a lot but I’m a little worried the Knicks are going to regret not picking Mudiay.  Certainly from a box office ticket selling stand point.  Point guards have always ruled New York.

--Kawhi is so freaking good.  He really makes everything look so easy.

--Cauley-Stein looks pretty good and he and Cousins are going to work well together but why oh why didn’t the Kings take Mudiay.  They could have built a future around Mudiay and Cousins


--Lastly for now, what the hell is up with Matt Barnes?  Is he completely out of his mind?  Did he actually say "We're 2 grown men who should have handled 2 grown men's business, but he wanted to run and tell the cops & NBA”?  Good lord can’t you just keep your mouth shut?  Grow up already.  Also, is Derek Fisher pretty much a complete joke at this point?  The Knicks really need to find someone else to be their head coach.
