[QUOTE="Tevo, post: 1263767, member: 185365"] I was critical of JCL earlier this season, likening him to a DJ Richardson, who never learned how to drive and thus limited his own ability to get open shots. But JCL has impressed me the last few games with his willingness to mix the pump fake with an actual 2-dribble drive. His shooting will get guys jumping at him. That fake, and then an actual drive as a counter will give him all the room he needs. Currently, it seems like most of his drives end in drop-off passes to a big, which is fine as an option. But the last step will be developing his pull up jumper or a floater off the drives. If he can add that last element, the sky is the limit. [/QUOTE]
