Jarrett Allen: Holy Ethical Molasses

[Comeback kid]

That's good for 20 games a year when Wade is healthy. How about the other 80 games (should be the expectation to play around 100 games a year)

Maybe he’ll play in 57 games next year?

Wade averaged 50+ the last 4 years.
Mitchell was 55, Garland was 57 last year.
But stepping up to full time starter is a whole new monster and Wade is not at that caliber.

Mobley is in Mobleys way, not JA. Mobley is not a natural center. The reason that JA clashes with Mobley on offense is quite simply because Mobley has not developed his offensive game enough to be a modern PF. If JA left this would still be a problem.

Yes and no, coaching was the issue. How many times did we run sets for Mobley? How many times did Mobley touch the ball on offense? Let alone two possessions in a row? Ok, that's coaching.

Mobley is too passive, and I am so happy he said in one of his play off post game interviews (think it was vs Boston) that "I need to stay aggressive the whole game". I pray that means he will look to score when he gets the ball, rather than pass.

look at what JBB took from us

look at what JBB took from us

He has taken 111 3 pointers in his career, made 19.

45 of those attempts were as a cav. 8 of the makes were as a cav. He shot 17% from 3 in his career. 17.7% as a Cav,

But, Brook Lopez was 3-31 in his first 8 years in the league, in his 9th year, Lopez shot 346 attempts making 35% of them.

JBB, didnt take anything away, but he didnt explore the possibility either. Once they decided to try Lopez from 3, he started shooting 4.9 a game and got comfortable and started making them.

Not sure if we should, or explore more shooting from Mobley or both. But its not crazy idea to see if Allen can shoot 3's AND Mobley, its not unheard of by any means.

This is a possibility I think Atkinson will explore. If he succeeds, build the statue on GP.

JA's 3 point shooting motion looks better than Evan's. More fluid, no hesitation except to check where his feet are. Evan looks like he's thinking then aiming the ball, needs to get more reflexive and instinctive with his motion.

It would be amazing if Atkinson could unlock the corner threes from both Evan and JA.

Evan was taking 3's from all over, he just has to get comfortable with it. He shot 37% from the last year, but only took 1.2 a game, just needs to be comfortable taking 3 or 4 a game.

Allen has been a bad 3 point shooter for his career, 17% on low volume, but has shot about 100 3 over the years. I think Jarret's form is fine, so he has to be told to practice, work with a coach and just be more comfortable with it too.

I actually expect Mobley to make a big leap this year from 3.

Awesome news!!!

Guess we're tied to the two big offense for the forseeable future lol

This franchise is moronic.

How so? This team hasn’t reached its potential yet and if dg can come back to his all star form and Mobley takes another step this team can be contenders

Buddy we have to abandon this idea that starting two centers is remotely plausible in today's NBA.

Because it cash straps us even more to put necessary pieces around this team to make them a true contender.

We are already cash strapped with maxing him out or not
