I feel he gave us a real lift when oscar put him on K. Anderson defensively in the second half. I think that's when the cats began to gain a little control of the game.

Granted, we got some good Jevon and some bad Jevon, but overall I thnk he was key to getting the cats back in control of the game.

I'd feel better about Jevon if he improved his FT percentage by about 300%.

Jevon was fine. Helped.

Those who complain about Thomas show their low bball iq. Yes, we get it: he can't shoot very well right now. He does other things, though, that nobody else on the team can, like lead fast break, penetrate defense, and make dribblers very uncomfortable. He has off the charts potential. oscar will get his shot improved. Lay off the kid.

I love JT and he had a good game today. GTFOOH h8ers

If he can be just an average scorer, he can be an elite college level pg. I think he will. The only real knock on him is scoring and experience. One of those well get fixed naturally.

He's a stud.

michigancat · « **Reply #16 on:** February 19, 2014, 11:33:22 PM »

well I know everyone loves him but he is just a historically bad shooter. As in like we've never had a player shoot this bad ever.

Johnny Thunderbone · « **Reply #17 on:** February 19, 2014, 11:46:20 PM »

Why doesn't oscar just give him a red light? He's such a contributor he would be an asset even if his mindset was to never, ever look at the rim (similar to his approach to layups). Like a hyperactive, more adorable Balbay 2.0.

michigancat · « **Reply #18 on:** February 20, 2014, 12:03:00 AM »

Balbay was a waaaaaaaaay better shooter than Jevon.

Balbay was a waaaaaaaaay better shooter than Jevon.

And still had fewer attempts per possession. That concludes my presentation. Appreciate your assistance.

OK_Cat · « **Reply #20 on:** February 20, 2014, 06:56:54 AM »

He's a piece of garbage.

kim carnes · « **Reply #21 on:** February 20, 2014, 07:20:43 AM »

His quickness is nearly worthless without being able to finish at the basket. I have never seen a good pg in my life who was anywhere near this bad offensively.

KanSt43 · « **Reply #22 on:** February 20, 2014, 08:11:46 AM »

WOW. JT could literally take it to the hole every single time if he wanted to. No one can stay in front of him one on one. I suspect he's spent more time learning the offense than shooting in practice. Free throws will be improved. Have patience, brothers. Jevon will be a great one.

He took 1 shot in 16 min last night. And I'm pretty sure the shot clock was < :05 so he had to take it.

I know he's had his struggles, but there were a few times he drove in the lane and forced a pass because he absolutely did not want to shoot. I'd rather him shoot when he's wide open inside of 3' than force a difficult pass.

The funniest part of last night was after JT completely missed the front end of two free throws and the crowd was silent. Then he hit the second one and the crowd and bench erupted like it was a game winning shot. I think JT is aware that he needs to improve and has his team supporting his progress.
