Wes DavenportHOST
like Pacers Spurs Steven Jackson Steven Daction and I pulled this up because I I I thought that he didn't and then I had to go and like check it and I was right like his best season yeah he was averaging 20 points per game or 21 points per game somewhere around there uh five rebounds four assists and incredible defense for the Pacers and for the Warriors like Steven Jackson was incredible for a good number of years.
Wes DavenportHOST
How about Al Jefferson? Remember Al Jefferson? Big Al Jefferson? Al Jefferson got MVP votes one year where he averaged almost 22 points per game and 11 rebounds.
Wes DavenportHOST

for defense.
Matt AlquizaGUEST
Just like a crazy fourth quarter for Nas.
Matt AlquizaGUEST
The versatility that he can play with, it's like, Threes off the catch, threes off of movement, post footwork that looks like Al Jefferson, punishing mismatches, some nice passes on the move.
Matt AlquizaGUEST
He can just do a little bit of everything.
Matt AlquizaGUEST
You and I have said this to each other multiple times in his four games as a Hornet.

Al Jefferson.
JakeHOST
But that's the reality of how Lowry plays on offense is he's just in constant motion, comes off screens, and has such a quick release for a seven-footer.
JakeHOST
It's going to be so fun to see him really turn it on this year and and try to to score because like beginning of last season he was averaging 35 points a game right and it'll be really cool to see him and then jaron jackson jr like he had a few plays where it's just like his feel in the post for when he needs to spin when he needs a pass when he needs to fade when he can drop in and dunk it like his post feel we haven't had a guy like that i've said this before since like yeah So yeah, since Paul most up Al Jefferson, right? That sounds stupid, but like even Derek favors who was, I don't think he was a great post player, but he was like serviceable.
JakeHOST
Didn't have that same type of feel.
JakeHOST
So like our offense is just going to be unstoppable.

James PlowrightHOST
And, um, y- obviously we see some of the post flashes, which, you know, I was saying in my notes.
James PlowrightHOST
Some of them are like Al Jefferson-esque, like the fluid feet turning, faking, you know, getting defenders to lurk, an ability to pass and score out of that, the touch off the glass.
James PlowrightHOST
You know, he is-- If we're talking the history of skilled Hornets big men, you're, you're talking like Al Jefferson, Boris Diaw, um, and, and like I'm struggling to think of one off the top of my head unless you're a big Spencer Hawes guy who, who maybe touches-
