I'm gonna keep saying it - His positioning is incredible! I love to just watch him instead of the ball at times.
- He comes off his man then back on in such a crafty way.
- He can do so much with a half second on defense to alter all kinds of opponents and plays that are technically not his assignment.
- The amount of work he does to position while the ball is in the air doesn't even seem possible.
- He must've gotten straight A's in Geometry because he judges the bounces and ricochets as good as you can expect.
- He follows his shots not just to do it but does it so well, because...you guessed it, positioning.
- He moves to open space to create an open look for himself.
- He moves to open space to create an open drive for his teammates.
- He executes screens so frequently and sneakily.
- How can someone not particularly fast be like Speedy Gonzalez with his positioning? You swear you just saw him set a pick at the top of the key, you blink, and then he is under the hoop scoring.
- Despite all this tremendous positioning and aggressive level of movement, he rarely gets called for blocks or other dumb fouls. His fouls are more productive and of the attempted shot block variety.
Not only will Jason Carter be a joy of a player for us, but I hope he will also model a style of play that will be passed on and spread throughout the future of our program for years.
