Gone unmentioned on here, Jerome Jordan made it into the game last night for a few minutes.
Dude is raw. I mean REALLY RAW. Didn't know where to be or what to do on the court. Don't expect much out of him anytime soon. Not sure what the hell he was doing in Serbogevinia or wherever the hell he was playing.
I'm shocked at how skinny Jordan is. I thought he'd fill out a bit more by now. It's like he hasn't touched a weight at all. I still think he'll eventually be a useful guy off the bench. But now we know just how much more developed Jorts is! Can't wait to get Jorts back.
He looked like Anthony Randolph used to look. Deer in the headlights. I think he is ok player, but not mentally equipped to handle the pressure cooker. You throw them into the water at some point. Some will sink and some will swim.
Super Raw, like ability to foul out in 5 minutes Raw. He's obviously not ready for big minutes, but in this shortened season with our injuries, we need to give him a few minutes a game to spell Chandler.
Earl Barron just got released.
Maybe we can have "Baron to Barron for the bucket!"
To be fair, he didn't look as bad in previous games as he did last night. But I agree he's raw and skinny- has he lost weight since we drafted him?
Rookie being a rookie. He looked really good in the D-League game when Lin found him every time. He is a very good PnR big. Very good hands. martin asked me what I saw in the game and I said Jerome will be fine against fleet footed center/pf types but will struggle with bigs that have a post game and are very physical. Milsap and Jefferson was a bad match up for Jerome. He should do better against the Wizards.
Serbogevinia! I hope you're right NYKBocker
