"Wondering if DNP eventually reintegrating into the game play will alter this for better or worse."
Agree on all your points, Kong!
And the return of Peterson, although certainly desirable once he is healthy and can go 100%, is also my concern,
The way we have seen these guys step up and take charge in the absence of the projected overall #1 2026 NBA draft pick has been heartening for sure. I'm positive he won't do anything intentionally to discourage their play upon his return, but - as they* say, stuff happens.
And it doesn't necessarily happen with the players.
For example, what if HCBS returns to his short hook instead of allowing Jackson to play through miscues and into his rhythm as he was forced to do against Tennessee with DnP, Dawson and White out of the game?
Fingers crossed that the addition of Peterson in Jag persona results in the whole being greater than the sum of the parts.
Word of the Day - SYNERGY!
Happy Thanksgiving, y'all!
