Daniel Jeremiah

Obviously, he's been on fire.

He's been hot, but he was efficient enough.

I think he was 9 for 19.

He had 21 points, if I'm not mistaken.

Outside of that, they look good.

And obviously, the goddamn Nuggets didn't help themselves turning the ball over and missing some opportunities and chances to score in vital moments that could have changed the outcome of the game.

Yeah, I mean, Minnesota played a heck of a ball game.

But for me, and I think about mentality, I think about confidence, especially when it comes to any sport.

Right now, the specific topic is basketball.

And for Cam Johnson, I think he needs to insert himself a little bit more.

I understand that there's a pecking order when it comes to shot selection and who has the green light to take as many shots as they want to.

But I think players like Cam Johnson in that role of when Yoko is not doing well,

when Murray's not doing well, I need to insert myself into the game.

How do I do that?

I already need to be in rhythm.

I need to have some type of confidence about my game where I don't feel scared or I don't feel nervous or gun shy to take certain shots.

And there's only one way to do that, is being able to get yourself in rhythm and find ways to insert yourself into the game, even when it doesn't call for you to do so.

And I think if he's able to do that late in ballgames in situations like this, then he'll be able to insert himself and feel okay about taking certain shots where it means much more as opposed to the first three quarters in the game where it matters between wins and losses.

I mean, right now, with the rankings where they are right now, where we are in basketball season with 20 games left, I mean, based on your expertise and watching the game and your knowledge of the game over time,

If you were to take your picks now for coming out the East and coming out the West, planning the finals, who would you have to this point right now?
