Somebody's been working with him. Saw it on one of the other videos they put up too. Hopefully it will translate to more consistent shooting.

JJ started out with better form last year as well. Then his old delivery returned in games. We shall see.

really hoping for a break out year for him, he hasn't quite hit his potential yet, but he has stuck with MU as opposed to transfering like many others do.

I'm actually very surprised he didn't transfer. That should mean he's fully committed to the program and we should see a huge improvement from him. Hopefully he's been hitting the weights hard and improving his shot and ball-handling. Last year he was a TO waiting to happen whenever he was dribbling the ball.

I hadn't noticed it - hopefully he can continue to work on it. However defense, defense and defense are the keys to him getting on the floor.

I was not surprised - in my mind a lot comes down to who you surround yourself with....

John Dawson & Deonte Burton - misery loves company, both were unhappy, both were roommates, both transferred.

Duane Wilson & Jujuan Johnson are roommates - while misery loves company, people also feed off of positive energy. Does anyone have more positive energy about the program than Duane Wilson? Jujuan feeds off of Duane.

Great point Jim.

Even with Duane's influence I still give JJ a lot of credit for not running away and making the commitment to stay and get better.

I too am really rooting for him.

Yup. Think he could do some really good things for MU BB.

Talent definitely isn't the issue, I think it's more mentality. If he can retool his jumper and understand what the staff wants on defense without constantly gambling on steals, he could still be a player. I really hope this is the year he puts it all together.

Agreed, well said. I am rooting for JJJ.

I think JJJ is going to be surprisingly good this year.

If that is true, I think MU will be surprisingly good...

In this one clip, he is not turning his right hip and shoulder towards the rim like he always seemed to do the past 2 years. He appears to be staying more squared to the rim.
