Edmond Sumner's knees seem healthy, and LAJ can really get up

November can't get here soon enough.

So...

This looks like the work of healthy knees. For the record, that's behind-the-back (and under his hind end) from right to left while in the air on the first one, a fairly standard catch and windmill on the second one, then behind the back from left to right on the anchor leg. This guy might be a point guard, which is insane.

Of course, LAJ was also there and showing off the 40" vertical:

Those both look a little garden variety compared to what Ed was doing, but I'll take it from one of the other guys who might be the point guard.

I came up in the days of Gary Lumpkin, Mo Mac, and Lionel Chalmers. Having a guy on the ball who might conceivably one day run through traffic and put someone on a poster kind of blows my mind. It's a brave new world, X fans, and I like it.
