Amazing as always. The analogy of tough questions and running and effort is so good. As a runner, or someone who, uh, tries to run, the first run after a break is always so tough. But like the question Redick didn't ask, taking the first step is going to be awkward and maybe painful, but all of the steps after get easier, or at least the next run or the one after that is less of a pain. You draw this out so well. We shouldn't look for answers from guys like JJ (though I wish we could), but if he, or others, take the the first step, it makes the next step, or the fourth or fifth run, easier. I don't think this is solely a KP issue, but one that is true for general coverage. I say this in at a time when all Wizards media is basically locked up behind the monopoly of Monumental Sports Entertainment; when the coverage is not only not taking any steps, but pretends like where already running.
No way is JJ going to ask Porzingas about an unadjudicated case. Nor is the corporate media going anywhere outside the narrative. The NBA may reap the benefits of social media and gambling but the league derives no benefit from taking moral high roads.
The eye test is important on and off the court. Zion is going to be seen differently than Ingram, or KD or any slender wing player, regardless of effort or results. Basketball players are expected to look and move a certain way, even though this is disproved by the Andre Drummonds, Kyle Lowrys and Nikola Jokichs. In their own way bears and penguins are just as just as graceful and magical as unicorns.
