Making the most of the pre-65 game requirement era
Minutes be damned. Super max eligible now!
Edit: needs another DPOY or all nba in next two years to be super max eligible in year 7. Thanks for clarification u/fella05

ANOTHER STEAL BY JAREN JACKSON JR
Let’s goooo Jaren!!
Jordan Poole robbed ffs!
He’s gonna be a force for the next decade.
Best defender per minute easily
Only argument against him was minutes in my opinion
Ain’t mad with it. It was wither JJJ or Brook.
True defensive anchors
My man. Best player on the Grizzlies
He deserved it, the rhetoric around this award was embarrassing
Congratulations to him
Well deserved!
Damn, that grizz stat guy got it done
The bright spot in an otherwise disappointing season so far. This dude has played at an all NBA level the last couple of months
reddit in shambles
Well deserved and best choice for the award.
Remember when this subreddit thought his counting stats were being propped up by a score keeping conspiracy?
A second plane has hit r/nba
To everyone who voted on that “conspiracy” post about Jarens Shot blocking and u/mydixxxierectt well timed post today
SUCK MY DICK
Wish it was Brook, but I’m not upset that it went to JJJ. Absolutely amazing in his own way
Fair result. Congrats to JJJ.
Well deserved.
Well deserved
So happy for him. Congrats JJJ!

No surprise. The defense was terrible without him those first 19 games. Went from 20th in games started without him to 1st with games where he started. Finally some good news for Grizz fans.
EARNED IT
2018 draft class is special special
Remember when that moron made a completely incorrect post that combined not knowing the rules with a couple of odd camera angles to try and sabotage JJJ’s chances? Grizzlies fans remember
LETS GOOOOOOO. Well deserved!💯🔥〽️
Well earned JJJ!
Completely deserved. Dude is a monster
Tbh you couldn’t go wrong with all three but glad JJJ won it.
A single piece of good news in this barren hellscape
Jaren had the 4th highest block % in NBA history this season. The top 3? All of which were Manute Bol.
Congratulations JJJ!!! Just a great young player.
Logic prevails!

*reddit disliked that*

Fucking deserved.
One step closer to becoming a Hokage
