I haven’t looked at the numbers but it sure feels like Bam has spent a whole lot more time around the basket than he did last season. A few of those jab steps have even led to drives to the rim rather than fallaway jumpers.

Bam never ceases to surprise me. Every season he comes in having improved in some way, and every year its something I would never have guessed he was focusing on.

And of course now on looking at his stats they say the exact opposite, that hes venturing further away from the basket. So what do I know…
