The mobile app is faulty for me. I have to repost all the time. I think it’s mostly OS when I was android I didn’t have the problem.

I left a long insightful comment on this video. But I guess it never posted or somehow got deleted?

Right! I hate to pick on the small white guy! But dang!

Athletic Alchemy

You would love him to be a knock down guy, but if he hits enough to stand out there that should be enough along with his defense...for the foreseeable future.

Athletic Alchemy

All shots need tweaking at times..even Steph's. In the few I saw he needs to put some more arc on it, which usually comes form a tighter shot pocket.

Athletic Alchemy

Remember he is still a basketball baby, wanted to be a football player. So there is a real chance this jumper does develop.

Athletic Alchemy

He got some real swag to him out there!

Athletic Alchemy

You see the flashes on defense that have kept the staff intrigued but its go time now in what year 3?

Athletic Alchemy

"you aint got , you aint got it" Time for him to focus on his energy and hustle rather than iso moves.

Athletic Alchemy

You probably right he is already a better shooter, but you got to shoot to make m! You can tell Evans is a cerebral player, playing with Shuan and Dre will be even more beneficial.

Damian Jones took like 7 steps here at 3:21 .... ("shaqtin a fool" ding ding ding ding sound)

Bell is already a better shooter than Draymond. He just thinks he shouldn't shoot, he will get over that. Kerr punished him last year likely for being too cocky and also perhaps being too easily fooled by pump fakes. Draymond hasn't made two midrange jumpers in a game 3 times in his whole career. Bell won't be Dray defensively but he's faster and can jump higher, still Dray is special, I'm just hoping Bell can learn how to take the ball up court like Dray does. If he can push the ball, dish, and learn how to set drag screens to free up our shooters he's a steal. You can already see Evans D on the 3 he blocked, footwork, instincts, just as you pointed out, nice flow to his game. His 3 will come around, and he is strong now, give him a year or two and he will be even stronger, but I agree he did look shorter than I thought he would.

Magette was ball hogging

I feel confident that Evans' shot is going to find its way in. It was off this game but he'll have the whole summer league, preseason, regular season, and postseason to get adjusted and approach his 3pt production in college. If he can, and if he displays an IQ even close to what his past coaches have praised about him, I definitely think we've got ourselves a steal. He still has ~2 years to develop before we need him to step into Iguodala's shoes. I mean shit, by the end of Looney's 3rd year, he was a capable starting center in the WCF against one of the all-time great offenses. It's possible.

I saw a interview after the game where Jacob implied that his shot is fine and doesn't need tweaking. Thoughts?

Sure you guys already saw but we got Looney back on the minimum. Don't really know what these other GM's are doing letting us keep this young and inexpensive talent. But with that acquisition I don't think Damien is going to get many minutes as Dray, Bell, and Looney are all workhorses un like JaVale who can only play limited minutes. Bell's jumper's got me speechless. If he can just hit 2-3 shots a game, doesn't matter where from, the effect that's gonna have on the floor is tremendous. And to see him hit one from the beyond the arc, I really hope they have him starting and let Looney coming off the bench even though Looney is probably the more established player at the moment.

seems like playing in the conference finals and nba finals improved bell's confidence significantly. he does seems like a man playing alongside boys.

Steven Stanley

This is fantastic, keep em coming, so fun to watch. Big men with poor footwork (Jones) can improve big men with poor hands never do.....Jones is definitely a little lost but still he shows he has some physical tools to be something every game....I think you're right he may need to be a "JaVale shots Only" role player this season.
