    Well .... consider the career capping frequently here. Look at that with Bronny ..... "he can't shoot and will never be able to score in the league" because he didn't show it in the procedure-required-on-his-heart-abbreviated one and done college season. And everyone knows NO players with a body like his and work ethic ever improve after the advanced age of 19. :clap:

    Yeah. I didn't think his shot was broken before but I concede I'm not an expert on shot mechanics.

    i've had the back pain he's describing, and it suuuucks. but i was 43 when it happened. you could tell the reporter was like me: "so...i'm 40, of course my back hurts...what happened?!"

    interesting he claims the main change to his shot was fixing his feet.

    i can see why jhs killed in the draft interviews. he seems three years older than lewis lol.

    LOL. Yeah, that's what I heard last year, then he sucked in the regular season when he played.

    He did do well in the G-League.

    Lewis still seems like a deer caught in headlights or that he just teleported here and is constantly surprised at where he is.

    Looks better this year for sure. He’s going to be able to eat some minutes off the bench.

    Definitely the best outing he's had for us in a non G League game. Confidence was up, mid range shot looked good, did a good job of using his size defensively.


    This one though...

    As I said, Ham was using him wrong, he is a power forward

    The pull up jumper looks a lot more confident, ran the break and sets well.

    He has trouble finishing inside and I didn't like Terence Shannon bulldozing Lakers out of the way and comparing that to JHS off the dribble work.

    In other words he looked ok which is a big improvement ‍♀️

    Exactly. He’s like a center but plays power forward who can dribble. It’s confusing but it’s pretty basic. Allegedly.
