Excellent entry passes

Excellent defense and passing and energy. Really liked what I saw from him.
 
Agreed, he was the best passer on the court. Also the best defender.

Jackson is the definition of a point forward. I think his impact this season will remind us old timers of Nadav Henefeld. A do everything player. He's a Rudy Gay athlete with a Nadav Henefeld skill set which is about as filthy as it gets.

He's kind of wild but you're gonna take the good with the bad because he's such a special talent. He's going to be a beast defensively, can sky for rebounds and lead the break with his vision.

Lol your kidding. Best passer on the court?
He based on high school scouting has shown to have plus passing skills for someone his size. But from that game you conclude that he’s the best passer on the court?? Please.
 
He is going to be an absolute stud. You could see his vision and instincts tonight. Outside of his jumper he doesn't seem to have any holes in his game. He can be a Top 10 pick if he turns into a reliable outside shooter. Hell, the way teams draft for potential these days he might be one without developing his J.

I don't think it was a wild take, and I agree with him. He had some bad turnovers but his vision was obvious.

Yes I think he's the best passer on our team. And I don't think anyone from Central is better

Andre is fo wheel. Looked like a talent across the board, but his D was super.

he was the only guy that got it to sanogo on the low block, and he did it perfectly, twice in a row. the outlet to bouknight was phenomenal, too.

Yup no doubt about it. I'm sorry you can't see it but I can.

There is a difference between projecting talent versus saying he is the best passer on the court based on tonight’s game.

And I truly believe that Jackson has Daniel Hamilton like point forward ability. But I also think he didn’t play that well tonight at all. Which isn’t surprising considering it’s his first game.

Think you need to take a chill bro. He said he was the best passer on the court.....which he was, tonight. I’m not sure the guy said he’s the best passer on the team. Try some decaf.
 
Yes, he's the best passer on our team, today, tmrw, in March. And man does he plays hard as hell, relentless defens. I love this kid.

He was tentative early on but that was probably to be expected. I think when the competition gets better he'll start to really flourish.

He had 6 assists in 19 minutes and didn't have the ball in his hand all that often; it's not like he was bringing the ball up every possession. I don't know how anyone is unimpressed.

In my opinion he played exactly how I imagine a freshmen in his first game to play. Flashes of unmistakeable talent and a lot of careless mistakes. I just think Cole, Gaff, and even Bouk had some great vision tonight.

Hurley will need to adjust his offense. When you have a passer like Jackson the offense should flow through him even at the forward position. The Denver Nuggets offense flows through Jokic and he's a center.

Jackson will be a zone buster with his passing ability. Put him at the top of the key and give him the ball, good things will happen.
 
I thought he didn't get control of too many of his deflections. Too often, it ended up rights back in the hands of the guy he tipped it from. On several occasions, I noted that he got a tip, and then reached for the ball instead of diving for it. Ended up touching it with his finger tips, while the other guy was diving on the floor and two handing the ball. And he was very tentative in his first minute (as was Sanogo, who came in at the same time as him). 2nd time each of them came in, they were much better.

Agree that he has potential to do well there. I’d love a rotation Bouk, Jackson, or even Whaley as I think he at least plays with in himself from the high post and has shown some passing ability for a big.
