have to love his heart

even with an injured back.

Maybe it will inject a some needed calm into his game.

His back you mean?

Perhaps. JT’s a tough dude.

he is at that (tough)

His motor tends to run a little hot on the court and he fouls or misses bunnies. Maybe a chance to grab some rest and observe the game and Landry will allow him to mellow just a bit

Agreed. More rest and more observation.

I only know one way to go, and that’s going hard.

This is part of JT’s problem, he only knows one way to go. He should be talking about playing smart.

To be the best, you have to do your best. Otherwise, you are only second-rate.

Exactly

He needs to think while playing hard. It’s one thing to have heart. It’s reckless to go full steam without thinking. That’s why he has such a foul problem.

The Sacramento Convergence concept offers Sacramento, the Central Valley, and the State a solution to feasibly construct a new multi-use Entertainment and Sports Complex.
