Oh, I get it. He named his kid after 3 famous people named Jim. All famous, yet all spelled their first name slightly differently.

Hendrix (Jimi Hendrix, legendary guitarist)
Rome (Jim Rome, host of Rome is Burning)
Williams (Jimy Williams, former Red Sox manager)

Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Tatum is tight with both Williams twins, it seems.

Man, Rob's feel for the game has become absolutely incredible. He's legitimately a high IQ player at this point.

Over his last 14 games, Timelord is 20/21 from the line. He is now up to 72% for the year, when he had never cracked 65% previously. Hopefully it's not a hot streak and he really is trending towards becoming a good free throw shooter.

Rob is closing in on 10p/10r/1s/2b for the season. Only guy doing that right now is Anthony Davis. If Timelord can stay healthy and play more minutes than his current 30mpg, we might see some cool stat lines the rest of the season.

You have to be pretty happy with Rob's season so far. He has been very good when he's out there. Most importantly he's been out there consistently. Most of his missed time is due to covid and you can't hold that against him.

My question is can you up his FGA's and/or make him a bigger part of the offense? He's 24 so starting to get to the end of development but bigs do generally take longer to develop. His FGA / game and FGA / 36 are both very low but he's shooting 74% TS. You can afford to lose some efficiency in exchange for higher volume.

The FT shooting is a promising development and I think I read of here he's working on a 3 ball in practice. Even the Brandon Bass area jumpers he's taken in games has looked good and would be a nice addition to the offense if he could make it a more consistent weapon.

They're not kidding Parl,
RW3 is a game-changer.

Love how he directs and leads his teammates on defense, how he moves and passes on offense and how he's recommitted his body to the task of a professional athlete. Well done big fella!

His "tipping" rebounds are getting more advanced. Pretty soon he'll do the full court bullet bounce tip. "just punched the ball out coach wants pace"

I wonder if the stat keepers are giving him full credit for his "tip" rebounds. I feel RW is getting "Robbed" at times.

Rounding up only slightly, he’s playing 30mpg and averaging 10/10/2/2/1 while “shooting” 72%.

My favorite play from last night was when he got an ORB against Jokic and went up to try to score with a layup — got blocked or missed, and did it again! Usually he’s looking to kick out to shooters in that situation, but this was the very rare case of Rob being like nah imma get mine!
