I think he needs to string together more decent games before we can call him really dependable. But he's trending up and consistently.

I love how he recovered. Earlier in the season, if he started 1/6, he probably ends 1/6. Keep shooting baby goat

He's probably showing as much progress for a 19 year old, that we can hope for, I'm sure the data will back up that fact.

Well I meant more that we can depend on him to give us solid minutes and not be a deer in headlights that holds us back in any way like he was earlier in the season (and is a pretty good development for a 19-year old rookie). That doesn't mean he'll give us 18/6 every game, but he'll be a consistent contributor.

Nice game by BI. He had his hands full defensively but he at least put forth a good effort. "He aint skeered."

His jumper has been looking fantastic lately. Only caught the 2nd half, but he looked really good



It's beyond lately in fact, 48% in his last 18, and 53% in his last 8. Major growth in this past 5 weeks or so.... Really happy to see this, hope is alive...

His shot definitely looks better. Even after the whistle he's swishing jumpers.

I know what you're getting at, but I still stand by what I said

He's having his first kinda okay month after several months of being terribad. Let's see him close out this season with the kind of progression he's had

Looking confident. I'm curious to see what he physically looks like next year (if he isn't traded of course)

I wouldn't necessarily say terribad. He was invisible and unassertive, while showing occasional flashes. When you combine Lou and Clarkson's usg% in the unit he was playing in, his lack of aggression made sense from a ball watching standpoint. Lou had to go for various reasons. His absence created a vacuum of opportunity for the youngsters.

Smooooooooooth BI.

Kinda sucks because there maybe a few instances per game where if his body was more developed he could make a play.

Hope he continues this play and finishes the season off strong. Give him some confidence going into the offseason. Spend a summer eating, bulking up, working on that shot, and training under Kobe, I'm very interested to see how he will look in year 2.

I'd definitely donate any calories gained from Tommy's.

If he had a more developed body, we would not have gotten him (insinuating that he is a better prospect than Simmons as he matures)

I would. And the fact that he is no longer terribad and looking okay this month... that's a leap I prefer, anyway, if he can close out the season on this trajectory.

Also, he just needs to up that 3P% to continue his trend of increasing all his shooting percentages month by month

I didn't even notice that he hit seven shots in a row until the media mentioned it on twitter.
