In response to 91Quake
I was at the game last night, curious to see how JD would play in a system where he's not the primary scoring option. He shot 5 for 11 and 1 for 6 from three point range. He mostly circled from the corners to the top of the key, running off screens. His missed three point shots were mostly short off the front of the rim. My thinking is that since he was out with the shoulder injury for most of the preseason, he just needs get back to game condition.
Defensively, he had a little difficulty keeping quicker ballhandlers in front of him. He did have a nice block of a Dean Noll layup attempt.
I am curious to see how his game evolves as the season progresses.
As for tonight's game, Perkins looked great. 24 points, 14 boards, assists. Potential Ivy rookie of the year, if he can produce like that consistently.
