Makes no sense in the world...besides the fact that he missed the dunk.

Love the kid and his game etc. And I'm not among those who thinks he detracts from chemistry etc....Archie and SS will figure that out as all of them get more time on the floor together...

But, he needs to figure out that part of staying on the floor is using your head, and not sacrificing your body for the show of it all.


Agree completely. The 1 thing I will add is that the sacrificing his body appears more an attempt to show his toughness in the paint than showmanship.
