So John Jenkins still remembers how to shoot.
JJ2 led all scorers with 22 points on an efficient 8-13 FGs from the field. He's starting at SG and is clearly one of the top offensive options on the team.
I'm personally in favor of D Ferry (and L Drew) sending our rookies to the D-League. We have a glut at SG and enough 3-pt shooters to spread the floor. There's just not enough PT to go around.
I do find the timing odd, though, with, Korver still out and Morrow questionable.
But we have (surprisingly) a top team in the conference, a HC working to keep his job, and a need to remain competitive to attract top Free Agents next summer. Playing rookies an extended amount of time is probably not in the best interest of the team. Especially with a plethora of better options ahead of him on the depth chart. (Korver, Louis, Morrow)
But seeing JJ2 step in and put up big numbers in his debut with limited practice time, is definitely encouraging.
Mike Scott was there, also: 7pts, 2 rebs, 2 stls, 3 fouls, 3 turnovers.
Thoughts?
