Message: [QUOTE="husky429, post: 3330954, member: 6696"] Everyone should watch the last 4 or 5 minutes of the 4th quarter. Great show of JBFs potential after playing the ENTIRE game. 35pt (not sure how the box score said 36 unless I missed a FT make) 14 REB (6 Def, 8 Off) 1 AST 15/17 FG (88%) 5/8 FT (63%) 4 TO 5 BLK 1 STL Overall: - potential potential potential. Through the roof, but he'll need time to develop. Great size and touch. Huge arms and hands. -He showed up BIG TIME in his teams most important game this season so far. That speaks volumes. He absolutely won this game down the stretch for Thornlea--baskets, blocks, closeouts. Last 4 minutes of the 4th he obliterated RCA. Great stuff. - He needs to have energy more consistently.. occasionally ball watching in the first 3 quarters. I think it could just be conditioning. When he is locked in he is dominant. 10mpg behind Carlton where he can just play like a maniac his freshman year while he gets his conditioning right would be perfect. To be fair, he played all 40 minutes. - Athleticism is good, not great. - Every game I've seen he's super efficient from the floor. I'd love to see him take MORE jump hooks and short jumpers. Some of those tougher shots. - Pretty good passer out of the post. Teammates missed at least a few open shots off his high-low passes. One kid finally hit one late to put thornlea within 5 points. Needs to work on seeing the post up and pass option.. tends to only look for 1. - Defensive rebounding hasn't been good in the 3 games I've watched. Not very explosive or playing with and edge under there. This game is showed more than the others because the opponent was more athletic. His instincts aren't great to rebound out of his area. To be fair, RCA did a good job scheming to pull him away from the hoop. - Perimeter defense is not good. Borderline awful. - Defense overall I would say has potential. Slow in his rotations, but that will come with reps.. Defensive rebounding and shotblocking will be the next big steps. - Hands are pretty good, but he has a tough time getting open on the post up.. was a part of a few turnovers not listed because he didn't meet the ball with 2. - Got a T called on him, not sure for what. Didn't have the volume on. [/QUOTE]
