    Is Chet likely guarding Jabari?
    Banchero guarded Jabari really closely, didn't give him much space to shoot over him, and dared Jabari to put the ball on the floor (he did that in their game in High School that you can find in YT as well).
    Jabari also won't be able to shoot over Chet, but Chet is so long that he won't need to up in Jabari's face.

    I'm very high on Chet (and Paolo too for that matter). He'll be a tough matchup.

    Hopefully they won’t repeat the NHL amateur draft for the first half. My recorder had no way of knowing they switched. I hate woke, east/west coast biased ESPN.

    his lack of handles has already been posted here by many. but what was really peculiar to me was his team defense. all game long he was out of position typically standing by himself near the paint away from the play. if some guys just have a knack for being in the right place at the right time, jabari looked like the complete opposite -- constantly not in position for helpside D or to catch rebounds

    and eason seems to have absolutely zero left hand, both on drives and layups

    these rooks got a lotta work to do this summer

    Maybe I'll be able to watch this one in "real time." Life intervenes.
