Earlier in the season, when the team was not nearly as crisp and Jacob was forcing too much, I found his antics to be immature and possibly distracting (to the team). Now, with the team winning and Jacob allowing the game to come to him - hats off to both Jacob and the staff - I find his antics to be refreshing, uplifting...and at times, down right hilarious. His Redd Foxx impersonation after Geo's "dunk for the ages" was funny AF! Sometimes we forget that they're just kids. I love the passion and energy that they're bringing every game. Winning is infectious!

Agree. Kudos to the JY and the staff. Early on this season, there was more than one occasion where JY had teammates open for shots and didn't pass the ball. I lost my **** and wrote JY off. I was wrong. I would love to know what was said/done, but whatever it was, it clearly worked.
I even shocked myself during the Indiana game. There was a stretch of game in the 2nd half where our offense went stagnant. I said to myself, we really need to get Jacob in the game.

Yep. I was saying the same thing. The Ferrari seems to have found his steering wheel. :Sly:

Big time improvement for Young, glad to see because even going back to last year he seems like a real good teammate. We really needed him with Geo out and his improvement has really made this team go up a notch.
