    Not that it matters but that Moses Malone statistic seems to disregard the 3 years/3000 points he scored in the ABA.

    Not the best game, not the worst game. If he makes 2 more 3's then it's a nice stat line... That's kind of where we are at right now. A couple made 3's away from being a star.

    Nice to see him figure out that he can jump over nearly every NBA player, Wemby included.

    15-20 lbs of muscle away. Hopefully the dad diet helps him bulk up in the offseason.

    Jalen needs to focus his game on 2 areas and 2 areas alone this off-season.

    1. Attacking the basket - They need a jumbotron at the training court showing Jalen every time he attacked the basket and got his ass handed to him (about 250 times this season) and then teach him what he did wrong and practice over and over and over and over how to do it right.

    2. Shoot 3's til your arms fall off. Should be shooting close to .450 on a practice court if he's going to get that to translate to the game.

    He completes that dunk if Sohan didn't shove him with his forearm.

    One more dribble and he puts both of them in the basket.

    To get that burst that quick off of 4 steps is :eek:

    That would have been an All Time one for the ages.

    All Jalen has to do is shoot efficiently. That's it. Why is that so damn hard for him?

    Pretty easy to put up points on terrible efficiency when you are given the green light on a tanking team.

    I thought even average NBA players shoot like 60-70% if not better on practice shots in the off season?

    Based off what? Jalen's been balling the last 8-10 games defensively & offensively. Our biggest win came with Jalen going off in a Phoenix road win. Y'all are running out of material

    low bball iq. You see the shot he took at the end of the half where they had last possesion and no shot clock and he shot the ball 14 seconds left instead of making sure they had last possession

    Only taken him damn near 3 years. He's friends with Ja too, who takes bodies on the regular and is a lot shorter. Then, we've had to accept that Jalen's slow on the uptake haha.
