Do you believe Jontay would be a more effective and valuable player if he had a better post game? I do.

Do you believe any time spent learning how to play in the post would have significantly detracted from his perimeter shooting or passing ability? I don’t.

Do you believe he’s as effective in the interior as an 18-year old can possibly be? I don’t.

Given that he grew up in a basketball family, I find is surprising and frustrating that he’s not more polished in the interior. That doesn’t seem like such a stretch to me, but feel free to continue trying to explain how I’m wrong.

Jontay could learn a lot from Sophie - WildCard MU - 1/28 17:30:47
     Nothing is happening with Jontay or Tilmon for that fact - longtimereader MU - 1/28 17:47:29
     Cuonzo could also learn something from Pingeton, probably.(nm) - Evenflow MU - 1/28 17:40:03
          Its not probably. Based on play, its for sure.(nm) - GA Tiger MU - 1/28 17:52:19
          You mean like, how to persevere thru an impatient fanbase? - tiger4real MU - 1/28 17:43:52
               Robin won 13 games in both of her first 2 years. - Mizzmi27 MU - 1/28 17:49:57
                    what have you done for me lately? - tiger4real MU - 1/28 17:51:15
     Jontay will develop a post game - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/28 17:37:08
          As an 8th grader, I had better post moves than JP.(nm) - Tiger_1995 MU - 1/28 17:50:07
               Good for you MPSr wanted his kids to focus - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/28 17:57:32
                    Even 5' 10" guards should have post moves.(nm) - Tiger_1995 MU - 1/28 19:10:55
                         Jontay has post moves - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/28 21:04:42
                    That’s a poor decision - WildCard MU - 1/28 18:03:06
                         Not really. With the way game has evolved, every kid, - alwaysright MU - 1/29 06:57:12
                              Why can’t you learn both? (nm) - WildCard MU - 1/29 08:02:18
                         It’s worked out well - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/28 18:07:49
                              To FIJI this, I agree - WildCard MU - 1/28 18:20:09
                                   He’s been a perimeter player - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/28 18:22:39
                                        I find it hard to believe - WildCard MU - 1/28 18:24:34
                                             Not enough to develop an inside game - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/28 18:29:00
                                                  He could have played on the interior in AAU - WildCard MU - 1/28 18:32:40
                                                       He was a top 25 recruit after reclassifying - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/28 18:39:19
                                                            It’s a big deal - WildCard MU - 1/28 18:41:28
                                                                 It’s not a suprise - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/28 18:43:54
                                                                      You should have said “Hey Mike, your kid’s big” (nm) - WildCard MU - 1/28 18:47:05
                                                                           I’m happy with how Jontay came in - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/28 18:49:57
                                                                                Sigh. They all need to be better players than they are - WildCard MU - 1/28 18:56:10
                                                                                     not many freshmen have great post games - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/28 19:15:59
                                                                                          Not many freshmen have Jontay’s background (nm) - WildCard MU - 1/28 20:58:05
                                                                                               If Jontay had a polished post game - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/28 21:02:33
                                                                                                    And this team would be better. - WildCard MU - 1/28 21:16:07
                                                                                                         So you are saying Cuonzo should have recruited Ayton - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/28 21:22:41
                                                                                                              No. I think it’s pretty clear - WildCard MU - 1/29 05:43:29
                                                                                                                   Why don’t you point out the weaknesses of the rest - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/29 07:07:43
                                                                                                                        They are all pretty well covered here already (nm) - WildCard MU - 1/29 07:20:27
                         Or he's a freshman, and like 99% of freshman - MizzouTigerz MU - 1/28 18:06:01
                              It looks like more than just freshman adjustment to me - WildCard MU - 1/28 18:27:45
                                   But apparently Jontay was too big to learn how to play in - MizzouTigerz MU - 1/28 18:34:40
                                        Or maybe they both should have done both (nm) - WildCard MU - 1/28 18:38:28
                                             I'm sure you know best. - MizzouTigerz MU - 1/28 18:40:08
                                   Puryear was a year older than Jontay - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/28 18:31:25
                                        Not sure what your point is. You have ato be 18 to learn - WildCard MU - 1/28 18:36:42
                                             Jontay is already a better defender - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/28 18:41:40
                                             The point is that when you are older, you've have more - MizzouTigerz MU - 1/28 18:39:24
                                                  How did Tilmon get in the wrong age group? - WildCard MU - 1/28 18:42:41
                                                       BTW, what D1 coaching staff have you been on? - MizzouTigerz MU - 1/28 20:34:56
                                                            None. What difference does that make? - WildCard MU - 1/28 20:49:17
                                                                 Do you believe hindsight is 20-20? - MizzouTigerz MU - 1/28 21:05:34
                                                                      Oh. Right. No criticism allowed. - WildCard MU - 1/28 21:12:59
                                                                           Rational criticism allowed, not post dated fantasies - MizzouTigerz MU - 1/28 22:16:42
                                                                                What is irrational about - WildCard MU - 1/29 05:45:38
                                                       Jontay didn’t develop a strong post game - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/28 18:47:11
                                                       Are you really saying that a young man who skipped a year - MizzouTigerz MU - 1/28 18:45:11
                                                            No, I’m saying he shoudn’t have skipped half the game (nm) - WildCard MU - 1/28 18:46:22
                                                                 As I said, I'm sure you know best. - MizzouTigerz MU - 1/28 20:21:53
                              MSU freshmen center played very well last night - BlackSheep MU - 1/28 18:11:48
                                   His circumstances are not the same. You're trying to make - MizzouTigerz MU - 1/28 18:22:21
                                   Jontay is not post player, at least not yet - wu-tangtiger MU - 1/28 18:19:56
               While that may be true, he's grown quit a bit since then. - MizzouTigerz MU - 1/28 17:54:30
          Both surprising and frustrating - WildCard MU - 1/28 17:47:52
          He's already showing some improvement. (nm) - Uncle John MU - 1/28 17:39:21
               If so, it’s minimum improvement - BlackSheep MU - 1/28 18:08:53
                    Nonsense (nm) - Uncle John MU - 1/28 18:13:04
     though hard to watch, women play better fundamental bball - Macgrantt MU - 1/28 17:33:23
