did you notice the hitch becoming less noticeable in January? Think it could be a good sign that he modified shot while having success, and I do not think it will take a major overhaul to pull it back and up.
^ I actually didn't see the hitch all that much, so I assume it was largely fixed:
(the hitch I'm referring to is in this first shot)
But in the tourney, his release (which is a different issue) was the same as what I described above, with the low angle. It's not going to prevent him from being a threat from deep in the league, but I would bet that it's responsible for his streaky-ness and rushed contested spot ups.
The only thing I worry about is that the FO would draft one specific player over another because they think they can get paul george.
Even if they can get paul george, they should draft BPA.
Now who BPA is I dont know. Whether this worrying makes any sense or not I dont know. The FO is new and we dont know their thought process. _________________ Kobe
Sheesh Mike Schmitz made me not want JJ at all lol
Yeah Nate Duncan and Danny Leroux crapped on him as well. Not saying he's not talented but I just think Lonzo and Ingram have higher ceilings than him. I mean imagine them at 20 going against college competition...BBQ chicken lol. Also I'd rather not deal with the off court issues, major red flag IMO...
Anyways that was a great listen and I appreciate Mike's insights on Brandon Ingram, props to coach Pete and Darius for the great work they do on the podcast.

Sounds like a teenage girl at a One Direction concert.
Listening to it now. Can't wait for the truth.

Nate is a terrible draft prospect evaluator....and well Danny just agrees with whoever the alpha is. I personally like Nate, but he has been poor at this for years....just as he was very low on Ingram and Rusell. Not many true NBA talking heads, that dip into the draft for a couple months are very good....and Nate is the perfect example of this. Listen to Real GM podcast last week with Sam Vecenie, and you will think Danny is a totally different guy because he just mostly agrees with Sam.
I always picture Nate and Danny walking towards to beach, and Nate is hands free pontificating, and Danny is carrying two chairs, a cooler, Nate's sunscreen, etc. while trying to write down Nate's comments.

Nate focuses on NBA ball and doesn't spend enough time looking at draft prospects to have an informed opinion. I don't think there's enough time in the world to have informed opinions on NBA basketball AND be well informed on draft prospects too. Too much bball to watch. _________________ substance over style

Man- I am getting hyped about Ball.
He has flaws for sure, but he is just 19 and from everything I have read this kid is dedicated to his craft.
His high Bbal IQ at his young age is the key for me. It will only improve and his only goal on the floor is getting his teammates involved.
He will be Luke on the floor. Can you imagine Luke and Ball scheming together? I think they will stay up late at night just talking ball. Good things are going to come from this.
Ball is more quick and athletic than he is given credit for. It looks like he has a DLO similar 6'9" wingspan and given his IQ and speed he will be a decent to a plus defender.
Lastly he is a leader and not afraid to be one. This team has not had a real leader since Kobe. It is unusual for a 19 year old to have this ability, but it is real and will only improve with time. _________________ R.I.P. Doc Buss

I don't care for their takes to be frank.
Josh Jackson shot 56% from the free throw line, didn't show much range on his improved 3pt shot. Kmt I'll pass.

what does that even mean? I always find it funny that Ball fans are so quick to point out that Jackson shot 57% from the line, while appearing not bothered at all that Lonzo shot 67%.....so one was 6 of 11 and that is a problem.....while the other was 7 of 11, and that is perfectly fine....especially since Jackson got to the line about twice as much as Lonzo.

It means I don't trust his shooting and his ability to space the floor on this team.

You're reaching if you think the off court issues a loud mouth dad brings compare to Josh Jacksons at Kansas

I was wondering if everybody had glossed over that. Jackson did some serious damage to a car and was trying to get a girl to come out of that car so he could beat her up. At least Okafor picks fights with dudes...
