    Jumper will take awhile, but he can do other things. Unfortunately, JJ prioritizes shooting, so yeah, he needs to get proficient there.

    20+, we need them ready for the playoffs, no tinkering around with chumps minutes. I have no doubt that Adou and Cam are too good and work too hard to be denied. Looking in the crystal ball I see amazing things. Overwhelm teams with energy, pressure and athleticism. Along with the Bull we can keep pressure on the ball constantly. Make the offenses have to work, they screw up, we getting an ESPN highlight dunk. You apply enough pressure sooner or later a team cracks, even if it is just a small one that can be the difference in playoff games. Even in high school by the time you get to state the defenses make it hard to score. You have to be able to shut teams down as well if you have any hope of advancing. We have the weapons for this Laker squad to be rock solid defensively which includes cleaning the boards. I cannot wait to see us in action even if it does mean winter is back...lol. I think an inspired Vando can be part of that if we end up keeping him. Getting myself all worked up, got to get a run in before work.
