    Jabari's shot is not only flat, but they are hitting the front of the rim. It's obvious dude is tired. He might need year-around conditioning.

    It’s interesting to track this development. If only he plays offense like his defense. There’s still a lot of time to grow and correct his shot. He is just limited offensively in terms of driving the ball in transition and off the dribble. A little frustrating to watch but he is who he is. We can only hope he becomes an elite shooter in this league and continue to work on his handles and other things. I am still baffled why they didn’t take Murray and I said this since before the draft.

    He's definitely shooting different than his college form. You can look at the college videos: much better arch, more fluid movement, definitely more confidence.

    Let me explain this to you....he shot 43% from 3, he DIDN'T shoot much from 10-15 feet because we PNR'd teams to death with Walker Kessler and our very average guards.

    I don’t know man but Jabari has zero tricks on offense. I think he’s gonna struggle if he’s shot is not falling.

    If Tari is money then Jabari is debt, because he sure owes us a lot of what was advertised....

    I want Jabari to get inside instead of camping outside the 3pt line on every possession. Switch it up and get some gimmies inside to get into rhythm.

    Nix has sand in the pants man. A bowling ball like Lowry. It’s not all a bad thing him being thick.

    Tad bit worrisome that Jabari hasn’t at least semi adjusted on offense in his 4th SL game.

    He seems to dribble INTO tough shots a lot.

    If Lebron is a "point foward" then Nix is a "Power Guard"
