Message: [QUOTE="champs99and04, post: 2497715, member: 488"] Agree with most of this. [USER=2809]@CTBasketball[/USER] 's Dyson comp is spot on. That's the guy I kept thinking of yesterday. Much like Dyson, Jalen will run through a wall on game day. He plays hard, leaves it all out there, and gives the fans what they pay for. He isn't afraid of the big moment, isn't afraid to put the team on his back, and is very willing to be a vocal leader to try to left his teammates. You'd want him on your side in a street brawl, I think. But much like Jerome, I don't get the sense that his game prep and "time management" for a lack of a better phrase are quite what you'd want. You don't get the sense that he's a perfectionist and you don't get the sense that he's always laser-focused on the goal. He strikes me as a normal college kid, essentially, which would be fine if he were a normal college kid. I kind of brushed the motorcycle thing aside at the beginning of the season but in hindsight it's probably a great representation of who he is - pedal to the metal, no pun intended, at all times. Maybe that means he parties when he should be resting. Maybe that means he's playing video games when he could be watching game film. I have no idea. I could be 100% wrong. But that's the picture he's painted for me. [/QUOTE]
