JV just dropped his 48th double double of the season, tops in the league.....now we know his game has flaws but I used to say if Casey would just give the guy his minutes, he'd be a double double machine and ...there you go.
Dude could always rebound but between Casey sitting him after he dropped 15 in a quarter and him never getting any touches when Kyle and DeMar were both on the floor, well he's in a better place now but would look awfully good here starting or coming off the bench.

Just trying to get this straight:
Kawhi is are making the playoffs
Serge is making the playoffs
Gasol is making the playoffs
Danny Green is making the playoffs
JV, is at least making the playoffs or play-ins
DeMar is at least making the playoffs or play-ins
Norm Powell is is at least making the playoffs or play-ins
Kyle could have been there ....
We got our chip but that a lot of ex-Raptor talent doing OK. Now the few of you guys that want to read something into everything, relax. I'm just trying to get this straight

Someone hit their GM on the head and trade Baynes + Hood for JV quick. Or - is there any legitimate reason they'd take Boucher + Hood for JV?"We're playing in a building." -- Kawhi Leonard

Yeah, unfortunately some of his opportunity there this year is because JJJ's been out. JV is not in the long term plans for Memphis' starting frontcourt. Crazy for a top 5 pick who just turned 28 and could give you 20+12 if you gave him 30 mpg and touches - basically hasn't had a real home since his 2nd or 3rd year when it became apparent he wasn't going to get real starter-level run. I suppose it is what it is?

Within the next 30-60 days, everyone who wants to be vaccinated (voluntarily) will have done so. The 4 month waiting period for 2nd shots will also be shortened again as supply will far exceed demand.
Hey! Who's paying for those 100M extra vaccines we ordered with no return policy?)

Nope, Memphis franchise is considering JV a keeper right now, definetly in their plans especially with that salary of his.

JV would certainly check a lot of boxes here. Rebounding, toughness, a center. He’s shooting almost 37% from 3 this year. I think Memphis should keep him but we will see.
His challenge of course is this team with this coach and this leadership likes to play a switchy, swarmy, system where players guard multiple positions. JV brings a lot of good things to the table but if the team is committed to a certain style of play they are likely looking for players that fit into that style of play. Obviously Aaron Baynes isn’t that player either but you know what I mean.
Is JV better than Richaun Holmes? I think probably yes. But you would have to trade for him. But trading for him allows you to keep Lowry whereas Holmes you need to let Lowry walk for nothing. That assumes Memphis would even want to trade him which they might not.

I get the sense the story on JV has changed this season in Memphis. Jackson is still a key piece but he isn't reliable enough at this point to be a main guy."We're playing in a building." -- Kawhi Leonard
