JD Skeets

He had to hustle at times.

He got out to a Gary Trent Jr.

at the three-point line and blocked him.

So the hustle was there, but it works out perfectly in that he can play literally three games before going into the postseason.

And already he looks like he's ready to go.

So this is perfect.

Perfect.

Yeah, 13 points, 10 assists, 6 of 11 from the field, hit 1-3, pulled down 5 boards, and you already noted it, and that was my first takeaway.

Every single, or nearly every single one of his shots was in the lane.

So he was not, like, shying away from any sort of contact or physicality.

You know, you come back from a collapsed lung, like you said, like, ugh.

You, like, think, is he going to hang out on the perimeter, settle for the jump shot?

Not at all.

So that was a great sign.

Now he can reach...

64 games played if he plays in these final two games for the Pistons after playing in that one.

And then I guess there's going to be some more arbitration or more pleading to the league or whoever like, hey, can he still make all NBA teams?

We're doing it maybe with Luka and we're going to do it possibly here with Cade too.

So strange.

Yeah, that arbitrator that was part of the CBA, that they go to the store third party, that's still going to be involved?
