    Glass half full Guy reporting Sir! I expect it from Hayes and Wood. Make or break years for them going forward and both have particular talents that if the are better than they were at their best last year, under Redick now, it will go a long way getting us to better deals later in the season.

    Let @KareemtheGreat33 know on that too. That can’t be right? I doubt coach Redick will approve. Someone has to not let him spend the whole damn summer practicing the wrong way and then have to rework his shot once he gets to camp?

    at first in the video i think he was off on the timing and hopping after the catch, but as it went on, he was hopping on the catch, which i think is good practice for a guy who's not a movement shooter.

    …. and so it goes for the career capping “can’t shoot” contingent …. like everything else young players will never do. Until they do.

    Same goes for all the casual crystal ballers about Bronny James …. IMO

    yeah, jhs still has to prove it at the next level, but i think the shooting concerns are overblown. hard to imagine he just had a two-month hot streak or something. i mean, it can happen, but it's more likely that he's (as the FO swore) a hard worker, and hard workers can develop standstill jumpers.

    Oh you’ll see, we will deconstruct the way my boy shoots and plays basketball, break him all the way down to basics and build him up back as a productive NBA’er just like Ime Udoka without the sex scandals

    What's the latest on this kid? Still expected to be at 100% by training camp?

    His Instagram just some new photos of himself but still the last practice clip there is now 3rd row down in the middle.

    https://www.instagram.com/jhoodschifino/?hl=en

    And unless anyone else has something new, this clip from Weezy on the previous page where he was draining 26 3s in a row most nothing but net, and getting into a good rhythm with the timing for the catch and release after the first 5 or 6. Very promising in that regard.

    I’m still in the boat of “this kid will be fine.”
    Once he gets over the mental wall, he will be a decent backup PG.

    Good news. Hope he improves enough to be considered a trade asset for a minor upgrade in the roster, would do wonders

    Just popped back in and saw JHS update. Good news bad news dept my knee jerk response. Good ... of course that he's healthy and in that other clip was knocking down like 23 straight almost all nothing but net 3s in good rhythm catch and shoot from the corner. Bad news .... damn where did all his ready to tangle with Marcus Smart muscles go?? He looks skinny. :eek: :giggle:
