why he's more of a teacher than a tactician,

so we'll talk about that.

But of course, we'll start with talking about Mores Johnson, Jr., what he brings to the Mavericks, him guarding 1 through 5, is that real? What it looked like when he first got started at Michigan to what he ended up being by the end. And so let's get into it. Let's hear from our guest today, Isaiah. All right, welcome in from lockdown Wolverines. Isaiah, we just took your whole play.

We just took your whole flow, Dallas Mavericks with Dusty May and Morris Johnson.

We have a theory that that was kind of their idea the whole time.

Morris Johnson was your favorite player on the national championship team last year.

Give me your why. Like what made

him rise to the ranks of like a really likable player like Yaxel, Adai Maras, like a unique player. What made more as the guy that you really latched on to? Well, I mean, first, did you want, did you want more? Do you want, do you want, do you want to, you want us to, who else you got? who who's yeah i'll just we'll just give you everything um

uh i mean i loved more as because he number one felt like he has the highest ceiling and even

though it didn't uh out of everybody his athleticism is certainly i think the highest out of everyone

and i just loved like he when he was on, he was like basically unstoppable. And like he would do a little bit of everything, uh, in terms of like scoring defense. Like he would have the most violent and aggressive like, oh, you know, that guy tried a three point shot. It didn't go in. And it's like, oh, out of nowhere here comes Merez Johnson with the most violent dunk putback that you've ever seen, right? He's a guy that can do a little bit of everything. He started actually having a little bit of a three point game. Yeah. Reliable when it came to going to the free throw line. He's a shooter.

He's a down low player.

And he was an aggressor.

And then on top of that, you got the personality.

Like, you know, you've seen these Michigan games after every game.

He's standing there mean mugging behind Dusty May.

Every single, every single post game. It's like incredible. And Dusty May gave single every single post game it's like incredible and

Dusty May gave it back to him one time right? Yeah yeah he did it's it's so it's like you get a little

bit of everything from him you get the you get the the violent style of play that you love to see
