Ace Bailey ROY watch

I was listening to the Zach Lowe podcast the other day and he had Stan Van Gundy on. He made an interesting point about players needing to not just be capable of shooting, dribbling, and passing, but it's more important that they know when to shoot, dribble or pass. Or in other words having quick decision making, instincts, basketball iq, are what makes a great nba player. I think we are seeing this with the young guys. One of the reasons Ace is looking good is because he makes quick and confident decisions.

I was shocked how well Ace ran the pick and roll a few times. He looked like a seasoned NBA pg there. The angles, the zippy passes, not telegraphing what he was gonna do. Very encouraging.

the little two man game he ran with nurk on that one possession (i think anybody who watched the game will know the possession i'm referring to) looked like he'd been doing it for the last 10 years with nurk.
 
I know this is way too early and too hyperbolic and I'm a self aware well known homer but Ace might be The Guy.

I have been cheering on the tank so we could get The Guy and I think there is a chance we got him.

Ace is so fun to watch!

That smile! The way he doesnt force the game. The athleticism. The bright future. The defensive effort. The length. The shooting form.

He is just a joy to watch!

His smile is heartwarming.
He is a much needed breath of fresh air in this time of turmoil for the jazz franchise

The only turmoil I see in this franchise right now is that we’re winning the occasional game lol there’s nothing wrong with having a young team and losing every game as far as I can see at least for the next two years

This is what sticks out to me. He looks like he's having fun out there, but that's paired with a desire to win and becoming a better player. I just think his attitude, if it sticks, is really going to shape the franchise.
 
Imagine the damage ace can do once he becomes a bigger part of this offense to me. It seems like they don’t do much to call place for him touches he kind of just sits in the corner and then when it becomes advantageous, he gets the ball and something happens. I think he’s gonna blow up the second half of the season as he gets more involved in the offense and becomes more aggressive, time will tell though.
