A few stats I saw that's going to surprise some here. Keep in mind he's doing this in Byron's horrid system.
Players that avg 15 pts, 4 rebs, 2.4 ast and 34% from 3pt range in their 2nd years:
Lebron James, Anfernee Hardaway, Steve Francis, Vince Carter, Tim Hardaway, Chris Paul, Paul Pierce, Dirk Nowitzki, Kevin Durant, Latrell Sprewell, Damon Stoudemire, Kelly Tripuka, Ray Allen, Chandler Parsons, Gilbert Arenas, Shareef Abdul-Rahim, Mitch Richmond, Glen Rice, Mike Miller, Michael Finley, Jason Richardson, Steve Smith, Glenn Robinson.
Of these 23 players, 19 went on to become all stars. Miller, Parsons, Stoudemire, and Richardson did not. 17 players went on to become multiple all stars.

Well said. The biggest disappointment about JC is when he said last season that he never really works on his defense. The guy needs to address that glaring weakness in his game and he needs to do it now.
That is troubling, even with a coaching staff that didn't teach defense you would think that a player would know he needs to defend in order to be great. While Randle was not a passable defender himself last season we still heard how he picked the brains of Artest and Bass on how to improve his defense. While there wasn't a lot of progress on the floor at least we knew he recognized it as a weakness and tried addressing it.
Yeah, I hope JC improves his attitude and work ethic about learning how to play better defense asap. _________________ "Chick lived and breathed Lakers basketball…but he was also fair and objective and called every game the way it was played."

He looks noticeably more ripped but not bigger than last season. I was expecting to see a more buffed up Clarkson. _________________ My Dream Starting 5 next Season
He's looked more focused after Kendall dumped him for AsapRocky
Not necessarily.
"She's dating one and having a fling with another."
Maybe that news made JC's game of 1-12 shooting and having the announcer say "Should've brought Brandon Ingram instead!" more understandable... or that game led to her actions of finding another.
Either way JC should be fine. He's tizzight with Swaggy so that means no shortage of club life socialites to hook up with.

I have tons of questions, I guess the first is, he went 1-12 shooting?! I saw a lot of makes in the video. Did he go 7-7 after that? _________________ "Every hurt is a lesson, and every lesson makes you better”

The video of the recent good game was the 8th game / week 8 of the league or whatever.
His first outting or at least the first one someone reported was a week prior, was documented here:
