Jake LaRavia Discussion: Lah-Rave-E-Ya!

So is he looking like a 5th starter to you guys? He's sure making a case for it, IMO.

 

I think so. Doing a lot of the little things that matter and seems to be a good fit with that group.

 

Making Rui expendable.

 

Rob deserves his props for signing Jake. He’s a great young prospect who’s only gotten better here with more burn.

 

MEH … he clearly “lucked” into the fact he plays really good hustling smart perimeter D since he doesn’t value it at all and the fact Jake was his and JJ’s first call solely based on his high scoring career so far. Same with Smart and the gymnastics to be able to draft Thiero. And snake Manon away from the Warriors.

Jake is good to go

 

Great doing-all-the-little-things game from him. Activity was very, very high



His 3 ball has been off for the last 10 days (excluding the Clipps game), so it was nice to see him find a no hesitation rhythm tonight.

 

Jake taking lessons from Smart - he's diving on the floor on random plays going ball to the walls. Like the hustle!

 

that's some high praise, and well-deserved. we need another hit signing like jake this offseason. maybe two.

 

I like Jake. Am i the president of the fan club? Who is?

I actually think that he can only improve and I already think he is a starter over Rui. His defense is absolutely fine, he hustles non-stop and his 3 ball will also improve, IMO.

Also, he's a glue guy to the fullest. AR in SF form, we can only hope.

 

Am pretty sure I was on his jock the first day we got him after looking at a bunch of his clips to see who he was and reading what Memphis fans were saying about him leaving it all on the floor every game including going to the floor.
