Watched a little of the first half. Joe’s team sucked but he looked good. Physically he looked big and tall and made a variety of smooth jumpers.

I loved Joe and if anything probably over defended him from the “pussy” criticism.

But the 42 inch vert makes his lack of finishing, aggression and creativity around the rim even more frustrating.

Is it an upper body strength thing?

Most any weakness in Joe's game can be traced back to his mental approach.

Call it what you want...soft, passive, not aggressive, not confident, beta, etc.

While it's not the trendy thing to say, it's why he could use another year of college. He would benefit from being expected to fill the alpha/Luka role on a team.

Why did CJ have to leave to give him another year?

There's money to be made selling get rich quick schemes to millenials/Gen Z...NIL, cryptocurrency, gamestonk, etc.
