Oh. I wasn't sure you meant him
Forgot he was here since the start of Joe's tenure

His parents didn't like him so much giving him this name
I pity his school teachers

What? Why? His name is easy! You’re right though, parents should have named him Jonathan David Davison. :o

It’s not doubling that’s the problem, it’s how and when that’s the issue!

Hey JT, at least attempt to drive against Gobert. You can always pass it out if they collapse.

If he's gonna keep it, go early and at least drive against a mismatch.

That's what happens when the player is taking too much contact.

Maybe that's why JT is taking 3s.
