I have to give credit to JR. He actually looks like he’s grown.
Last nights game put his growth into perspective. He started the game by getting other guys involved. Then, he started driving to the basket, hitting three’s and creating his own offense.
In the old days, JR would have hoisted a couple quick three’s. Instead, he’s realized that other guys need to get started before him. He now knows he can get hot at anytime. He’s learned when to look for his shot and when to pass.
I just want to give JR some props. He needs to continue growing, but, after this season, George Karl will have happy things to say to him. Everyone else will give props to JR too.
Keep doin work, JR!
