I expect atleast a week of practices (Like with Turiaf) before JJ gets some PT. |
like Mitch Richmond had a whole year worth of practices and only a handful of minutes to show for it. I don't know what's with Phil and Mitch Kupchak's pickups, he seems so reluctant to use them. |
I've been thinking the same thing Drifts. I was so sure Richmond was going to help us with his outside shooting, but he never really found his shooting rhythm in the triangle. Same thing, to a lesser degree, with Glen Rice.
When we got Richmond and Rice, both were used to getting a lot of shots and the offense running through them. I'm hoping that because JJ hasn't been a primary or even secondary scoring option for a long time that he's used to playing off the ball and hitting his shots off the pass. |
