If we get Jordan to play a complete game I have trouble seeing us lose to anyone. I'm talking back to the 20/20+ guy who is engaged from the opening tip. If we get the 0 point first half Jordan where he lost his man on defense in the first half we got in the first two games it will be really difficult to beat Arkansas.Excellent interview and done great questions the best being how do we get Jordan hawkins going in first half.
My take is run the first play for him but make it a fake jumper/drive dunk scenario. He’s got incredible lift and has gone away from it last 4-5 games. Jordan headfake drive and smash!!!!!!
People in the chat and on the board probably get tired of me constantly talking about it, but Jordan’s game is so prime for up fake, couple dribble pull up, or drive to the hole. I can’t imagine the staff doesn’t stress it too, maybe Jordan is just a bit hesitant to do it. But it would open everything up for him and the team.If we get Jordan to play a complete game I have trouble seeing us lose to anyone.

correct. One up fake on a 3 where he draws a foul or puts his head down and goes to the basket will do wonders for the rest of the game. The defender who bit on the up fake will be more hesitant to jump and challenge Hawk's shot which means Hawk can catch and jump and shoot that much easier.People in the chat and on the board probably get tired of me constantly talking about it, but Jordan’s game is so prime for up fake, couple dribble pull up, or drive to the hole.

Also had no idea - he said he was at every game too … surprised nobody noticed him but he flies under the radar being a radio guy for the majority of his career.Didn’t know Mad Dog’s son was on the staff. Now that is a serious energy source we could harness for the mojo.
Yep and he's a really quiet guy, never draws any attention to himself.Also had no idea - he said he was at every game too … surprised nobody noticed him but he flies under the radar being a radio guy for the majority of his career.

This is too perfect!
