Ace Bailey ROY watch

Locke said on KSL that his belief is that Ace will be the primary option for the last 20 games of the year (though the first 10 will be laddering up to it.)
That would be cool and interesting to watch
 
The sad thing is that we are hoping to corrupt a player. Jumping into defenders, doing "a veteran move" etc. is not what the basketball is about. Right now Ace is playing smart by finding the open space for his threes, long twos and dunks. Instead, we want him to exploit the bizarre NBA rules for the unwatchable endless trips to the line.

And he will probably learn to do it since the pressure and the payout are real. But it would be bad and ugly basketball. I always disliked peak Harden and I will die on this hill.
There’s a lot of space between Harden/Shai and someone who goes to the line once every three games.

I’m not a fan of foul-baiting as the primary objective of a play, but this is a game of numbers so you have to respect the math.
