J. Kyle Mann

The other thing for me, too, is you were talking about comparing him to the early KD.

I think that's everybody's temptation, usually.

I've heard people say Rashard Lewis.

I like that.

I probably should have included that, but he's a little more like an MPJ type of guy.

run something for him, let him be a shot maker.

Granted, anytime he dribbles the ball, I think he had one play where he tried to attack a closeout.

His just awareness of help and things like that, it's just a little ways away.

He's just not quite ready to do that kind of stuff.

Are the Jazz a perfect team in any way?

Yeah, for sure.

And they have a lot to gain by him even being wacky and letting loose and being messy.

And I was going to say another thing, too, is that I think Walter Clayton Jr.

might be better than Keontae George right now.

I bet he was watching Summer League and being like, fuck.

He just looks really smooth and steady out there.

He's probably older.

Is he older?

be older than he's like 23 but he's you know i like him but yeah with ace i mean everything that he does is just his superpower is the one step thing and that's what i was saying going up to the draft it's like if he has a step to go after a chase down block he'll do something incredible if he has a step to go catch a lob it's just if he has the room to show off that athleticism if you let him jump and get to his shot he's gonna make it so yeah he's gonna have some moments this year i wasn't surprised

Uh, nothing that really like, I mean, for me watching him in the first couple of preseason games and watching him, you know, in summer league, it was like, you see all the positive.
