Pretty pathetic how the refs always call fouls on him. I admire him for the poker face. That may very well be all of his problem right now considering that one is going to be more hesitant to defend hard when he knows he will get called.

I think he is great on our team and don't think he's a 'shell' of himself at all as he is coming out of injury. But I just think he seems hesitant at times.

He's getting back into things mentally. I thought he played well last night.
Grab a few boards, keep the TO's under 14, close out on shooters and we'll win.

I have consistently stated that IMO JO will be fine and will help us reach the goal.  I do not think he is, nor will he become, hesitant to defend...he knows that is what he is here for, and like Doc said this morning, his offense will come around as he gets back into shape.

He reminds me of the old Perk at times, makes some really nice defensive plays then next time up the floor makes the dumb bonehead offensive foul illegal screen holding someone etc..

Overall though he's been a nice addition.
