Taking control and leadership means playing smart, team basketball. Fox has the talent to be very good but forcing shots against 4 defenders in the paint is neither smart or unselfish.
Bagley pretty much matched JJJ line with 8 less shots and 8 less minutes. That Grizz blogger Dave talked about this morning probably trying to pretend he doesn’t have egg on his face right now

Dude he is LEARNING. He was locking DOWN on the defensive end. He put enough pressure on their D to draw multiple fouls. If he just hits his free throws it's a win running away.
I now have total confidence in Fox becoming a major star. I was very disappointed we didn't draft Dončić, but as good as I think Fox will be, Bagley may end up being the better fit. I haven't felt this way until today.

He's young. He'll learn. He's NOT selfish. He's not stupid. He's on his way to becoming a quality player for the Kings. Allow him to make some mistakes and learn from them. You're sounding like he's some sage veteran with gaping holes in his skill set instead of recognizing he's a second year player who is determined to improve and be what his team needs him to be. He's already better than a lot of people expected at this point in his career.

Is Fox the truth? Yes, I would say Fox is the truth. Not "The Truth," since Paul Pierce owns that nickname, but he's definitely the real deal. As Jerry said, he's well ahead of schedule for a sophomore. And yes, I said Jerry - he was on the post-game with Koz.
Why? If this organization has any brains they'll move Bogdan to the revolving door that is the SF position and not shoehorn him into the sixth man role people seem to want.
Like him or not Buddy brings you the most production out of anyone on the team not named Fox (and probably eventually Bagley).
