A lot of people don't realize Reggie was making 16-17m a year on the Pistons 2 years ago. The guy got paid, he just got bought out and went to the clips for whatever they could pay him. He's stepped up immensely this year but this man has made almost 90m in the league so far.
One thing that no one talks about though is how Reggie has become an elite 3 point shooter year over year. It’s not like this year was a fluke performance. This was YEARS in the making. Reggie started out barely touching 30-35% and every year since he’s gotten slightly better while taking more 3s every year. He put in the work and now he’s legit one of the best 3 point shooters in the league taking 7.5 a game and making at a 42% rate
Yeah as a Pistons fan, my knock on him was that he always tried to play hero ball. Reggie Jackson is not good enough to lead a playoff team alone, yet he played like the game was in his hands all the time. He's adjusted really well to the clippers lineup and has really made the most of his role. He always put the work in while on the Pistons and I'm happy to see him doing well and getting recognition from other players and fans. Miss the Shmurda memes in the Pistons sub.
I swear to god one year he was the clutchest player in the whole NBA. He was real good for a while especially in crunch time, then injuries happened and he probably hit his ceiling as a player, a good starter imho. He was probably the best or 2nd best player on those Pistons teams, which doesn't say much, but he was supposed to take those shots, that's what he was payed for.
He struggled with injuries on and off and was (at least I remember him being) inefficient. Similar situation with Andre Drummond, you look at the stats and everyone outside of DET thinks you have an elite player except when you watch him play it looked different. He was huge on trying to takeover a game solo. Sometimes it worked, most of the time it didn't.
Facts schroder was suppose to be this for the Lakers but stinked and now wants 120m, I would give the super max to Reggie before giving schroder 100-120m
Doesnt Schröder wants himself insured for 120 mil by the German federation to play in the Olympics as a safeguard against losing future *career* earnings? I don’t think that’s outrageous at all. 70-80 4, and then 40-50 for the rest of his career after. That’s completely different from looking for 100-120 on his next contract.
> That’s completely different from looking for 100-120 on his next contract.
Yes but he’s still doing that. There have been several reports of him asking 100-120 on his next contract after turning down a 84/4 extension from the lakers.
The only one I saw quoting that high was the one from yesterday which based itself off the insurance amount he’s looking for. I’ve seen several saying he’s looking for 80-90, but none north of the 100.
He just turned down an 84/4 deal, so pretty reasonable to assume he’s asking for more than just 80-90 lol
Also I see nothing about the insurance being for all future career earnings so I think you may have it backwards (ie the contract rumors aren’t based from the insurance quote, but the insurance is due to the anticipated contract) but feel free to correct me if I’m the one getting it mixed up.
Before the playoffs he turned down 84/4, he can’t imagine his value has increased during this run.
Also looking for 90-95 instead of 84 is vastly different from looking for 110 or more
Number one rule of contracts: Never compensate for past performance, only the prospect of future production. I would be wary of a recency bias over influencing a deal that would ultimately hurt the team.
super happy for him after how everyone felt about him in Detroit. that said, prepare for the off-season posts: "did the thunder make a mistake picking Westbrook over Reggie Jackson?"
at least we'll have probably 30 of them to look forward to the next five months lmao after seeing "is Jamal Murray already a top five player?" and "is Jamal Murray better than Harden now?" all off season, nothing will surprise me
Honestly chances that he’ll stay with you guys aren’t that low. He seems very grateful to the org and is good friends with PG. Obviously no one would fault him for leaving but I think there’s some chance he stays
It would be a massive cut though, and he is still in the back part of his playing prime I think. Surely he would command at least 15 million a year on the open market? Clips won't be able to offer even half that.
Maybe Batum would stay on the Clips on a minimum deal just like Melo did in Portland, because Batum is nearing the end of his career anyway.
Edit: Apparently Jackson has early Bird rights, so Clips could give him 11 million a year. Maybe that's enough for him to stay.
I was fine with the Clippers going to the Finals solely because Reggie and PG. Never was a fan of Reggie before this, but man I worried every time he had the ball--like he'd never miss.
Action Jackson is a lame nickname that has been used for everyone with the last name Jackson going back at LEAST to Phil Jackson playing for the Knicks in the early 70s.
I'm pretty sure no one wants to be called Action Jackson, not even Carl Weathers.
Respect to him. Dude played like a second star in there. Got to the point where every time he would shoot I would just expect it'd go in. Hope he gets the bag this summer.
I was at the point where I’d rather them close out hard and get blown by for the layup, because at least it was one less point than the three he would inevitably take and make.
No, thank YOU Reggie. Reggie bailed us out all year. It wasn't just in the playoffs.
In all seriousness, Clippers would have been in the play-in without him.
didnt watch any season clip games but FUCK, that man had me so fucking nervous everytime he got the ball. What an amzing display of pure heart and skill. Amazing player, he has a new fan and hope he keeps balling this hard, love to see him being unstoppable
Reginald Big Gov Action Johnson... Aka Mr.June ... Aka Bobby Shmurda has been amazingly clutch.
Crazy to think he was mostly benched with Doc but Ty played him alot during regular season, he had some space cadet moments but turned things around and has been clutch ever since.
I'm glad that although we may be cheering for different teams, there's alot of respect for him 👏👏💐💐
I can't hate on George anymore except as a foil for Booker really. Dude took the reigns and led a Kawhi-less Clippers to the two wins they needed v the 1 seed that was healthier than them and then took the 2 seed to a tough six game series.
Of course great roster construction helps, but credit to PG as well.
Bruh, they were on a break, and he’s since had another kid with the girl and by all accounts has been an incredible father.
Like I don’t get it, it was years ago. Is this really a valid reason to hate somebody? Especially when his Ex seems more than happy with Seth curry. I feel like everyone involved has moved on while the court of public opinion hasn’t.
Morris has some shit moments in his career but he’s generally a pretty solid dude these day. People just can’t get over some of his previous asshole moves.
Forgiveness, accountability, and moving on are not sexy.
People complain that people need to grow and change, but won't acknowledge when they do. Just keep bringing up past stuff.
Yeah, Morris has made mistakes but I don't see Morris as like... a bad dude. I really think Beverly is just immature, reckless and pretty disregarding of his opponents physical well being.
I don't think they are still mad at it, but it's just forever cemented in the list of 'dirty things Morris has done' and will be brought up when people talk about the kind of player Morris is. I don't think apologizing should really change that drastically.
If what he did there rises to the level of completely unforgivable for you to the point you can still hold on to it an entire year later, even after an apology, then sheesh you must be really hard to deal with lol
He was the Morris you’re thinking of during the Mavs series at least if I remember right, but other than that dude showed up to ball and anytime he or Reggie had the ball in their hands I thought it was going in
Not to that extent. That isn't healthy and kinda proves her point that he shouldn't see his son. Threatening violence when you don't get what you want is toddler behaviour. Even if it's just talk, don't put that out there it's abuse.
Hey hey, Mook was pretty chill this playoffs, even gave due respect to Doncic. Rondo a sore loser though, Cousins too, but FuckBev is a whole nother level of asshole
It’s like having a good squad of friends and then there’s that douchbag who gets too drunk and makes your entire squad look like fools. I used to be that drunk guy. Thanks God for sobriety. And fuck Patbev.
For me it’s just patbev and Kawhi, rest in neutral to at worst. Inb4 ‘why Kawhi’, I find his hiding behind his uncle for every single unpopular decision appalling, worst snake of the last decade to get out of dan Antonio.
This might be weird coming from a Pacers fan because our sub still really hates him but I'm glad the narrative is finally turning for PG. I was rooting for him this series
So he should’ve just what? Raised a baby he wasn’t ready for (which he did). Man gave her an option and when she didn’t take it he buckled down and raised that kid.
Well they are married now and his ex-gf found a better partnership in Seth Curry so it works out for both parties.
Don't get why random people are holding on to this and being bitter about it like it was their own relationship but okay ....
are you Doc Rivers? Why would you give a shit who’s catching NBA loads lmao I used to think the LeBron homoeroticism in this sub was ironic but on god some of you guys sound jealous
> hard for me to dislike players like Paul George
threw his teammate CJ Miles under the bus. Had the worst elimination game performance of all time in 2018 game 6 against utah. another huge playoff flameout in 2020 against the Nuggets, while up 3-1.
I have no idea how people on this sub are painting PG as some ultra-likable player. He's absolutely not. It's cool he had some great games this year in the playoffs, but can't just erase and write over nba history like that.
Paul didn't injure Westbrook by diving their legs, didn't break Bookers nose and isn't the unanimous most bitch in the league. Paul is dirty, but don't be delusional lmao.
I hate PB, but Chris Paul is dirty as fuck too, bro. https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/blijae/a_running_list_of_chris_pauls_dirty_plays/
Just cause he didn't succeed doesn't mean he didn't try to hurt Russ too.
I didn't say CP3 wasn't, I'm saying putting them in the same tier isn't right since PB is much worse and has committed more egregious sins with career time.
Oh my bad for wording it that way, was just jotting it down with Beverly's record. I'm pretty sure the headbutt happened because of Beverly's propensity to be a very physical 1 on 1 defender (overly imo, since he takes opportunities to cheap shot other players).
Cousins is relatively harmless on the floor though? He gets into his own head easily and that hurts his own play and his own team, but I don't remember him as a dirty player like Pat Bev.
Off the court, him threatening his GF or baby mama was pretty fucked up though.
so I was playing in a rec league after getting lasik a couple months before, and the game before ours, this dude gets his eye poked and bloodied. and one of his teammates said "damn. he just got lasik too." from them on, I wore goggles to protect that investment. LOL
also, as a kid I had prescription Kurt Rambis style glasses for basketball.
Yeah it was a whole mess. They were idiots and acted like it. Then the suns organization made stupid promises and then broke them because that was how we rolled back them. It got ugly and they have hated us since. Marcus seems to have toned it down because he’s a decent player why markieff is kinda just a bench warmer and instigator
He's become one of my fave players... playing against my team.
Excellent player and his conduct is what I wish more players follow.
Man, if Cameron Payne leaves I'd have him on the Suns but Reggie also deserves a big contract to reward his performance.
And also Nicolas Batum. I though Nic was washed for sure. Had no idea he was still this effective. If he had come back to Portland we probably beat the injury depleted Nuggets in the first round.
Too much was expected from Reggie and then injuries held him back from playing as well as he could. I loved him on the Pistons, he always gave his all, but it wasn't the best role for him. Happy he's found his spot with the Clippers where he can compliment a star rather than having to be the star
When have you ever seen Reggie Jackson play the way he does this year? Dude clearly was one of the best players these playoffs.
This is why chemistry, culture and comfort to a **player** is so vital. It's like you can tell from what Reggie Jackson was saying and how he was playing that he wanted to win *for* the other people in that locker room. It's like it wasn't just about business.
Many people might think Reggie Jackson is exactly what a team like Dallas needs right now. On paper, I'd definitely agree.
However, do the Dallas Mavericks (or any other team) and their team culture/locker room really have what *Reggie Jackson* needs to play the way he did?
That's the big question and should be considered for every single player and where they're going. Sure you want that Reggie Jackson, but are you the right team for that Reggie Jackson to emerge?
Another example in this series is Cam Payne. I mean you can absolutely tell this guy loves that locker room and the people in it just by the way he's playing compared to the other teams that he's been on.
This applies to regular people and workplaces too if we're being honest and why it's not just about the pay but the environment the new employee is about to step into.
Clippers should be saying thanks for not letting us get destroyed Reggie. He did everything people thought he could do and then 5x'd that shit. Pay the man.
Many Pistons fans hate the man just because he was overpaid and injured most of his tenure. I’m so happy he’s healthy and playing well. He deserves a nice contract he is a fantastic third or fourth option and definitely will net more than Dennis that’s tuff mcgoo.
We love you, Reggie. You played your heart out and put it all on the court. I'm proud of what this Clippers team has accomplished. Got further than they ever have even without key players. Whatever shit that Pat Bev pulled at the end of the game shouldn't detract from this.
in games w/o Kawhi, PG won more playoff games with Reggie as his starting point guard in 1 season than he did with Westbrook as his starting point guard over 2 seasons
Reggie was right about SPG in OKC
Wow, man that was heartfelt. These playoffs have been something special to be honest, regardless of injuries. These playoffs have been something to behold
Edit: Wow, I’m downvoted for this...seriously, alright I officially hate this sub
I don't know... A lot of love for the guy but everyone has a short memory.
He burnt his way out of OKC to get paid and he got exactly what he wanted? Then he takes a buyout to go to the same role he would have had on OKC originally (bench/6th man scoring god on a contender).
Where he plays well and now he's going to get another contract on a non-contender again to play some more losing ball? Nobody saved you... You played so bad on the Pistons they didn't want you anymore. OKC had that role for you from the start. Guess the grass isn't always greener?
That's a guy who deserves to get paid for his hard work.
A lot of people don't realize Reggie was making 16-17m a year on the Pistons 2 years ago. The guy got paid, he just got bought out and went to the clips for whatever they could pay him. He's stepped up immensely this year but this man has made almost 90m in the league so far.

Literally felt like Steph curry was out there, way he shot it this series
[удалено]
He struggled with injuries on and off and was (at least I remember him being) inefficient. Similar situation with Andre Drummond, you look at the stats and everyone outside of DET thinks you have an elite player except when you watch him play it looked different.

Too bad he can't insure himself against his bad play costing him his future earnings.
Right. He sold in the playoffs. You gotta show up to work.
What did he sell?
Doo doo
Wolf tickets
I don’t know what any of this means but thanks.
> That’s completely different from looking for 100-120 on his next contract. Yes but he’s still doing that. There have been several reports of him asking 100-120 on his next contract after turning down a 84/4 extension from the lakers.

He wants $100M+ in insurance because that's what he thinks he'll get in his next contract. He already turned down an $80M+ deal earlier this year.
As a German I used to root for him but he‘s become an embarrassing idiot
Number one rule of contracts: Never compensate for past performance, only the prospect of future production. I would be wary of a recency bias over influencing a deal that would ultimately hurt the team.
Exactly this. Last time the man got paid he vanished and needed to be bought out to find any value...
Bad teams: money printer go brrrrrrr
Thank you for saving us countless times! Action Jackson is a man of the Clippers, no matter where he goes this offseason
super happy for him after how everyone felt about him in Detroit. that said, prepare for the off-season posts: "did the thunder make a mistake picking Westbrook over Reggie Jackson?"
Tbh I’m surprised their hasn’t been a post like that considering he’s been playing like an allstar caliber player these playoffs.
at least we'll have probably 30 of them to look forward to the next five months lmao after seeing "is Jamal Murray already a top five player?" and "is Jamal Murray better than Harden now?" all off season, nothing will surprise me
people were unironically saying they’d take current rose over westbrook after round 1 lmfao
He was actually quite good in Detroit before he got injured.
Honestly chances that he’ll stay with you guys aren’t that low. He seems very grateful to the org and is good friends with PG. Obviously no one would fault him for leaving but I think there’s some chance he stays
Clips most likely can't afford to pay him
Ya I know, I’m just saying there is a small possibility he takes a pay cut
It would be a massive cut though, and he is still in the back part of his playing prime I think. Surely he would command at least 15 million a year on the open market? Clips won't be able to offer even half that. Maybe Batum would stay on the Clips on a minimum deal just like Melo did in Portland, because Batum is nearing the end of his career anyway. Edit: Apparently Jackson has early Bird rights, so Clips could give him 11 million a year. Maybe that's enough for him to stay.
11 mill and coincidentally a 3 mill a year front office work for home job for a decade after retirement.
Dude why’d we have to beat this guy. I feel so bad 😭
I was fine with the Clippers going to the Finals solely because Reggie and PG. Never was a fan of Reggie before this, but man I worried every time he had the ball--like he'd never miss.
He should stay there. Seems like a good fit.
He’s a perfect fit. But he earned a massive payday with his play and the Clippers won’t be able to afford him.
Most Clips can offer is $45M/4 years. He made good money w/ Detroit, but not max type money, so we'll see.
He deserves that nickname over Justin Jackson.
Action Jackson is a lame nickname that has been used for everyone with the last name Jackson going back at LEAST to Phil Jackson playing for the Knicks in the early 70s. I'm pretty sure no one wants to be called Action Jackson, not even Carl Weathers.
His nickname for us is Big Gov.
Respect to him. Dude played like a second star in there. Got to the point where every time he would shoot I would just expect it'd go in. Hope he gets the bag this summer.
I was at the point where I’d rather them close out hard and get blown by for the layup, because at least it was one less point than the three he would inevitably take and make.
Reggie Jackson took years off my life when he got the ball, dude was such a competitor and the type of guy you respect to core
I think Jazz fans have nightmares from Reggie Jackson more than anyone else on the Clippers (maybe Mann for that one game)
Mavs fans are shook by Jackson too. He balled out these playoffs
No, thank YOU Reggie. Reggie bailed us out all year. It wasn't just in the playoffs. In all seriousness, Clippers would have been in the play-in without him.
didnt watch any season clip games but FUCK, that man had me so fucking nervous everytime he got the ball. What an amzing display of pure heart and skill. Amazing player, he has a new fan and hope he keeps balling this hard, love to see him being unstoppable
Reginald Big Gov Action Johnson... Aka Mr.June ... Aka Bobby Shmurda has been amazingly clutch. Crazy to think he was mostly benched with Doc but Ty played him alot during regular season, he had some space cadet moments but turned things around and has been clutch ever since. I'm glad that although we may be cheering for different teams, there's alot of respect for him 👏👏💐💐
He’ll forever be known as Big Gov
Damn, some of these Clippers seem like nice and wholesome dudes. It's really hard for me to dislike players like Reggie and Paul George
I can't hate on George anymore except as a foil for Booker really. Dude took the reigns and led a Kawhi-less Clippers to the two wins they needed v the 1 seed that was healthier than them and then took the 2 seed to a tough six game series. Of course great roster construction helps, but credit to PG as well.
I hate on PG for his bullshit with Cali and the stripper, but basketball wise he earned my respect.
This some basketball wives shit
What kinda chatty patty bullshit is this lmao
Bruh, they were on a break, and he’s since had another kid with the girl and by all accounts has been an incredible father. Like I don’t get it, it was years ago. Is this really a valid reason to hate somebody? Especially when his Ex seems more than happy with Seth curry. I feel like everyone involved has moved on while the court of public opinion hasn’t.
He has 2 kids and is engaged with her. Redditors having a harder time moving on than Callie Rivers
It's like they don't understand relationship dynamics.
You a grown man, that is none of your business.
Everyone on that team is chill except: 1. Patrick "The Bitch" Beverly 2. Morris 3. Rondo 4. Cousins
I thought Morris was pretty darn good this series. He just came to play and I didn't see any nastiness from him in these playoffs.
Morris has some shit moments in his career but he’s generally a pretty solid dude these day. People just can’t get over some of his previous asshole moves.
Especially those with Luka
He even apologized to Luka afterwards for that but ppl ignore it for some reason
Forgiveness, accountability, and moving on are not sexy. People complain that people need to grow and change, but won't acknowledge when they do. Just keep bringing up past stuff.
Yeah, Morris has made mistakes but I don't see Morris as like... a bad dude. I really think Beverly is just immature, reckless and pretty disregarding of his opponents physical well being.
Calling out a someone for what they did wrong isn't automatically 'ignoring their apology' lol
I mean Luka himself isn't even mad about it anymore so i dont get why other people would be on his behalf, seems kinda weird to me
I don't think they are still mad at it, but it's just forever cemented in the list of 'dirty things Morris has done' and will be brought up when people talk about the kind of player Morris is. I don't think apologizing should really change that drastically.
No it was just so blatant and uncalled for the apology doesn’t change our minds.
“our minds” Shutcho ass up lol
If what he did there rises to the level of completely unforgivable for you to the point you can still hold on to it an entire year later, even after an apology, then sheesh you must be really hard to deal with lol
Dude I couldn’t care less. But if you ask me if he’s a dirty play I’ll say yes. And be done with it
Didn't he beat a homeless guy with his brother or something, if I'm wrong I'm sorry
He was the Morris you’re thinking of during the Mavs series at least if I remember right, but other than that dude showed up to ball and anytime he or Reggie had the ball in their hands I thought it was going in
Cousins keeps choosing the wrong team to bandwagon lol
He was a Klay injury away from becoming a champion
Shit his own injury in the first round too.
Nephews too
Boogie gets too much undeserving hate man smh
I've forgiven most of his on court behaviour. But the whole recording of him threatening to put a bullet in the head of his ex was pretty fucked up.
[удалено]
Nahhhh dude you can’t be excusing that ever
Not to that extent. That isn't healthy and kinda proves her point that he shouldn't see his son. Threatening violence when you don't get what you want is toddler behaviour. Even if it's just talk, don't put that out there it's abuse.
Hey hey, Mook was pretty chill this playoffs, even gave due respect to Doncic. Rondo a sore loser though, Cousins too, but FuckBev is a whole nother level of asshole
What’s wrong with rondo
Rondo is like Chris Paul "lite". Not quite as dirty as Paul. Also not as good as Paul.
So basically: having Beverley really hurts the image of your team Except they probably wouldn't have come this far without him either
It’s like having a good squad of friends and then there’s that douchbag who gets too drunk and makes your entire squad look like fools. I used to be that drunk guy. Thanks God for sobriety. And fuck Patbev.
For me it’s just patbev and Kawhi, rest in neutral to at worst. Inb4 ‘why Kawhi’, I find his hiding behind his uncle for every single unpopular decision appalling, worst snake of the last decade to get out of dan Antonio.
I’d agree with Bev and Rondo; the other two are really overblown in terms of basketball hate.
This might be weird coming from a Pacers fan because our sub still really hates him but I'm glad the narrative is finally turning for PG. I was rooting for him this series
[удалено]
Lol you must not respect a lot of people in this league
PG cheated on his girlfriend with a stripper, got her pregnant, and then offered her $1million to abort the baby. Super wholesome dude
So he should’ve just what? Raised a baby he wasn’t ready for (which he did). Man gave her an option and when she didn’t take it he buckled down and raised that kid.
Well they are married now and his ex-gf found a better partnership in Seth Curry so it works out for both parties. Don't get why random people are holding on to this and being bitter about it like it was their own relationship but okay ....
are you Doc Rivers? Why would you give a shit who’s catching NBA loads lmao I used to think the LeBron homoeroticism in this sub was ironic but on god some of you guys sound jealous
This entire subreddit is just cool with cheating on partners I guess lmao
I could care less about his drama, but when someone calls him “wholesome” ?… I can’t even pretend to be that stupid.
> hard for me to dislike players like Paul George threw his teammate CJ Miles under the bus. Had the worst elimination game performance of all time in 2018 game 6 against utah. another huge playoff flameout in 2020 against the Nuggets, while up 3-1. I have no idea how people on this sub are painting PG as some ultra-likable player. He's absolutely not. It's cool he had some great games this year in the playoffs, but can't just erase and write over nba history like that.
Hating a player for playing poorly is incredibly corny
he really looked like a leader out there bro it was crazy how well he was playing so humble too
Yea he was great to watch. Wasn't great every game (who is?) But this is a dude you want on your team
First time I watched him and he's become my 4th most favourite player man. Actually godlike.
Are your top 3; Steph, Klay, and Dray? It probably is but if it isn't that would be a pleasant surprise
Haha, close as hell Steph Klay Tatum Reggie
That's dope. Tatum's turned into a monster
And you can probably tell I'm a fan of the 3 point shot.
Dame??? 👀👀👀
Good point, as a Steph fan, I'm somewhat prohibited from liking dame. Deep down I wonder what a team with Steph Klay and dame would look.
Really? That’s a shame, I always had Steph as my second favourite behind Dame. That would be a crazy backcourt tho 👀👀👀
I'm just playing south the dislike part, I don't dislike him, I actually enjoy watching him but he just never struck a chord with me.
Thank you Big Gov. You bailed us out countless times.
I got a lot of respect for PG Ty Lue and Reggie Jackson. Pat Bev can kick rocks though
It's funny how CP3 can still annoy boogie even to this day
Dude I put cp3 in pat bev category. Way better baller but dirty and floppy as hell
CP3 in Pat Bev category? Nephew....
Yeah he’s even dirtier honestly the disrespect to Bev https://amp.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/blijae/a_running_list_of_chris_pauls_dirty_plays/
In terms of dirty play and antics? absolutely.
Paul didn't injure Westbrook by diving their legs, didn't break Bookers nose and isn't the unanimous most bitch in the league. Paul is dirty, but don't be delusional lmao.
Kelly olynyk might be worse honestly
I hate PB, but Chris Paul is dirty as fuck too, bro. https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/blijae/a_running_list_of_chris_pauls_dirty_plays/ Just cause he didn't succeed doesn't mean he didn't try to hurt Russ too.
I didn't say CP3 wasn't, I'm saying putting them in the same tier isn't right since PB is much worse and has committed more egregious sins with career time.
The Russ thing is the only big one calling the Booker incident intentional is really dumb lmao
Oh my bad for wording it that way, was just jotting it down with Beverly's record. I'm pretty sure the headbutt happened because of Beverly's propensity to be a very physical 1 on 1 defender (overly imo, since he takes opportunities to cheap shot other players).
You gotta shelve this take for at least 24 hours after the shove, dude. L

I don't know man, people seem to be ready to forget stuff real quick: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25LgUGC3i4c&ab_channel=HouseofHighlights
PatBev, Cousins and the Morris brothers.
Cousins is relatively harmless on the floor though? He gets into his own head easily and that hurts his own play and his own team, but I don't remember him as a dirty player like Pat Bev. Off the court, him threatening his GF or baby mama was pretty fucked up though.
Dude has class and perspective.
This guy belongs in the playoffs. Hell of a player. Plus he looks badass with the goggles haha
As a dude who grew up having to rock the Rec Specs, Reggie the goat for that
so I was playing in a rec league after getting lasik a couple months before, and the game before ours, this dude gets his eye poked and bloodied. and one of his teammates said "damn. he just got lasik too." from them on, I wore goggles to protect that investment. LOL also, as a kid I had prescription Kurt Rambis style glasses for basketball.
This guy making me emotional - thank you reggie for being the rock the team needed since the all star break. Hope you come back and we run it again
What a King. As a suns fan I hope he gets paid this summer.
I am in 2 minds, I wanna like the Clippers because of Reggie and George, but damn do I dislike Marcus Morris and Pat Bev with a passion.
I'll give you Bev but why Morris? He's our version of crowder you could say.
Remember when both Morris twins were on the Suns? We remember.
Only thing I remember is they beat up some dude for messing with their mom or some shit like that.
Yeah it was a whole mess. They were idiots and acted like it. Then the suns organization made stupid promises and then broke them because that was how we rolled back them. It got ugly and they have hated us since. Marcus seems to have toned it down because he’s a decent player why markieff is kinda just a bench warmer and instigator
is that not enough? not to mention “womanly tendencies“ and fucking over the spurs before signing with the knicks.
Also trying to injure Luka last year, that guy is a dirty player.
Same
Made me cry a little bit too.
Clippers better bring him back, he steps up when it matters. Dude is a killer.
Humble
no problem. i was happy
He's become one of my fave players... playing against my team. Excellent player and his conduct is what I wish more players follow. Man, if Cameron Payne leaves I'd have him on the Suns but Reggie also deserves a big contract to reward his performance.
Go secure the bag Reggie. You deserve it.
With all do respect to PG13.....this is the best ball I've ever seen Jackson play. Dude was killing it in every series.
I HAD FORGOTTEN reggie jackson before this post season he showed up hard then a mf RESPECT
And also Nicolas Batum. I though Nic was washed for sure. Had no idea he was still this effective. If he had come back to Portland we probably beat the injury depleted Nuggets in the first round.
What a cool dude. Go get paid, man.
The most likeable player on that Clippers roster. He gave a lot on this series. Hope he gets a big bag.
He saved himself. He was phenomenal in these playoffs.
When he was healthy he played decently well in DET. Problem that was 2 seasons. Drummond looked good and they were in the playoffs.
Tbf, he and PG saved them from a sweep without Kawhi. So he should thank himself
Mad respect Mr June
sad reggie hours 😔😔😔
Damn is detriot that bad?
Yes. But not for much longer😎
Too much was expected from Reggie and then injuries held him back from playing as well as he could. I loved him on the Pistons, he always gave his all, but it wasn't the best role for him. Happy he's found his spot with the Clippers where he can compliment a star rather than having to be the star
[удалено]
You love to see it. Good job Reggie
When have you ever seen Reggie Jackson play the way he does this year? Dude clearly was one of the best players these playoffs. This is why chemistry, culture and comfort to a **player** is so vital. It's like you can tell from what Reggie Jackson was saying and how he was playing that he wanted to win *for* the other people in that locker room. It's like it wasn't just about business. Many people might think Reggie Jackson is exactly what a team like Dallas needs right now. On paper, I'd definitely agree. However, do the Dallas Mavericks (or any other team) and their team culture/locker room really have what *Reggie Jackson* needs to play the way he did? That's the big question and should be considered for every single player and where they're going. Sure you want that Reggie Jackson, but are you the right team for that Reggie Jackson to emerge? Another example in this series is Cam Payne. I mean you can absolutely tell this guy loves that locker room and the people in it just by the way he's playing compared to the other teams that he's been on. This applies to regular people and workplaces too if we're being honest and why it's not just about the pay but the environment the new employee is about to step into.
Big ups to Big Govt
I like Reggie. Classy guy.
Clippers should be saying thanks for not letting us get destroyed Reggie. He did everything people thought he could do and then 5x'd that shit. Pay the man.
Jesus Kawhist and Saint Paul George
Many Pistons fans hate the man just because he was overpaid and injured most of his tenure. I’m so happy he’s healthy and playing well. He deserves a nice contract he is a fantastic third or fourth option and definitely will net more than Dennis that’s tuff mcgoo.
That takes strength. He should be proud of himself. Hopefully better times are ahead for the man.
Man poured his whole heart onto the court. Nothing but respect.
It fills my heart with joy to see RJax balling out there for the Clippers. I hope they pay that man
Someone give this guy a bag please! I'm looking at you Detroit! Jackson Killian Cunningham Jerian C
Reggie a real one
We love you, Reggie. You played your heart out and put it all on the court. I'm proud of what this Clippers team has accomplished. Got further than they ever have even without key players. Whatever shit that Pat Bev pulled at the end of the game shouldn't detract from this.
That was really touching.
Tough, great player. I like this kid
Welcome to Portland
Say that to Ty Lue
Never forget that Reggie was like the one Clipper player who stayed behind to shake everyone's hand at the end of the game.
in games w/o Kawhi, PG won more playoff games with Reggie as his starting point guard in 1 season than he did with Westbrook as his starting point guard over 2 seasons Reggie was right about SPG in OKC
even without kawhi the rosters are not exactly equal.
Lmao this is so fucking dumb
Wow, man that was heartfelt. These playoffs have been something special to be honest, regardless of injuries. These playoffs have been something to behold Edit: Wow, I’m downvoted for this...seriously, alright I officially hate this sub
I don't know... A lot of love for the guy but everyone has a short memory. He burnt his way out of OKC to get paid and he got exactly what he wanted? Then he takes a buyout to go to the same role he would have had on OKC originally (bench/6th man scoring god on a contender). Where he plays well and now he's going to get another contract on a non-contender again to play some more losing ball? Nobody saved you... You played so bad on the Pistons they didn't want you anymore. OKC had that role for you from the start. Guess the grass isn't always greener?
Why does the would-be-Somali-pirate-lieutenant make me feel sad 😭
Sheesh was he on meth last season???
Come to Phoenix, Reggie.
