He's ready. Just as long as he stays active defensively. That offensive ability is a top 8 rotation player level today. If anyone can draw up good actions for a movement shooter, it's JJ. Did a better job at getting downhill and to the rim than expected. Even a poster in the reel. Everyone says he bulked up, even though everyone puts on 15 pounds of muscle every summer reportedly, he does look bigger out there. Just stay active and engaged. With his size, consistent effort defensively will get him on the court with that J
i think for year 1, we need to limit him as an on-ball creator, as that's where he's tended to struggle, imo. but everywhere else, he looks really good.
And we've got enough guards + AD and Bron, that should be fairly limited. Very different skillset from his teammates than the point guardless summer league team where he was frighteningly our best ball handler.
What’s a first time visitor to think dropping in here unaware of you and sirron’s “bit” from the Islands?
