Arsenalist pointed out in his "We want Danny Granger" article this morning that Jack has lost some weight and looking really fit. No doubt that something like this is important for the success of the Raptors in 10-11.
Something else that may be just as important is Jack's "hang time" with "The Young Gunz". As I posted elsewhere this morning Jack flew, well I am guessing he flew and didn't drive or take the train, into Los Angeles to hang with DeRozan at DeMar's 21st birthday party.
Now this not the first time this summer that we have spotted Jack hanging with "The Young Gunz". We saw it in Las Vegas and also at the ACC.
Why do I mention this?
Clearly Jack and The Young Gunz are developing a very tight relationship off the court. This is really The more they get to know each other and like each other the better for team. There is no doubt that these four players are going to be an integral part of the Raptors success in 10-11. I like what I am seeing here with this.
On the other hand Bargnani is off somewhere in the EU playing hoops with players from many countries. This will no doubt help keep the EU strong and may even help the Euro Then there is Calderon, who is either not on the Spanish team for FIBA or maybe is now riding the bench behind Rubio Will this be enough to get a FIBA title for Spain next month? Not if JaVale McGee has anything to do with it.
JaVale who? Oh yea Pamela's kid. If Team U.S.A. has to rely on Pamela's kid for a FIBA gold or whatever they get for winning that tournament, they are in big trouble.
JaVale's mama can probably still whip his butt on the court.
So while Jack is spending the summer tightening his abs and his relationship with The Young Gunz, Bargnani and Calderon are helping strengthen EU relationships and the Euro.
