Jo is looking the best he has looked this season. He came to play.

We have to stay down on their shot fakes. On ball defender gets out of position and all of a sudden our help defenders are having to rotate and our D gets contorted
EGOTbear

no more threes from Vital please

Man, you just wonder what could've been with this team with Mitchell and Freeman. Then again, these guys have a chip on their shoulder. So easy to root for.
