last year, there were a few times, few and far between really, where JaKarr looked capable of being a defensive beast. With his long arms and athletic ability...his stats with the Sissers in summer league/preseason at least show he's involved. Varied statline even if nothing stands out much. But I think he ups his defensive intensity, he can definitely secure a spot in the Association for years to come.
76ers are purposely trying to be bad. It's like the movie "Major League," or a Marlins roster after a fire-sale year. Many were surprised the teams didn't vote for nba lottery reform just because of what Philly is doing with this roster. Still, like when Philly has a meaningful team and it would be awesome if Jakarr were part of that in the coming seasons.
Hope JaKarr makes the most of this opportunity, and YES, always good when a Johnnie has a shot like this, I root for him as I always have--for those who get their panties in a bunch way too easily on the 'net.
peace.
