If y’all actually have a look at JB’s recreation this 12 months, he’s been ending loopy along with his left hand. I don’t know if he was practising that within the offseason or no matter it’s, however actually every little thing they’ve talked about him — ‘he’s not that good of a shooter.’ He’s taking pictures the three very nicely.

After which we’ll have him run it down and play level guard, and run off screen-and-rolls, making performs and diming individuals. He has such an entire recreation to me and that’s why I like enjoying with JB.”
