Jarrett Allen must have taken some notes from Jahlil Okafor: take a look at the move at 0:20. That’s not a move he was doing earlier in the season, or even midway through the season. That is a brand new move for him, never seen before, and I’m pretty sure he lifted it straight from Okafor’s repertoire.
By my estimate, Allen can now do it all on offense. He can dunk it, he can layup it, he can jumper it even from deep, and now he can post-move it. Those are all the ways to score the ball that are legally allowed in the NBA, except for floaters, which he should never learn how to do because floaters are for midget PGs who can’t get their shot off any other way.
Hey Nets! Remember how much you liked trading with us when you gave us Tyler Zeller? Well, we know we made a big mistake by not drafting Allen, and we want to fix that mistake by trading for him! We offer a single Thon Maker, who is really good and not 5 years older than advertised. Maker and a second round pick. Great! We’ll pick him up in the morning. Thanks.
