Hey lil’ one. You have a a lot of talent kid, and i hope you have a really good year. I hope you can find some heart and find some passion for the game … Old? I’m 40, but a bum? I’ve never been that. I’m from the old school. I’m cut under the old law … ‘I’m gon’ have that same energy where ever I go and all that … Make sure your energy straight when you see me bruh … Keep that same energy. I’ll catch you traffic.
To navigate the NBA one must know who can shoot, who can rebound well, who doesn’t like to go to his right, etc. Who’s got “them hands” is also nice knowledge to have. Stephen Jackson was known as the one player you did not want a problem with. It appears Andrew Wiggins could have a problem unless [i] he ensures Stephen Jackson doesn’t catch him in traffic or [ii] he switches up his energy.
