Good to see him play so well against Chuck’s favorite team!


In the words of Stone Cold “Hell Yeah.”

Jaden showed you what I have been saying since the season started, get him out of the corner. Yes he might hit a 3 every so often 1/5 yesterday, but he scored 24 points shooting from inside, running in transition and hitting free throws. This wasn’t a traditionally good Jaden game where he hits his 3s, grabs an occasional rebound, and plays great D. This is what any other team would get out of Jaden semi regularly because they played to his strengths.

Yes, but nobody is allowed to operate inside other than Ant. Remember we are supposed to play 5 out :D

On the contrary, being 5 out means no non shooters, which spaces the floor which allows others to drive. Jaden driving on an empty lane with kick out to Ant.
