    Jabari is ridiculous. Such a poor-shooting ball-hog.

    Take a drink every time the ABC announcers mention the Lakers being shorthanded and underdogs but cant remember that Van Vleet and Steven Adams exist.

    I don't know what Jabari has ever done to give him the confidence to dribble step back shoot a semi-contested jumper.

    But needs to realise he ain't him.
