If it looks, smells, and fells like....it probably is

[Jeff White]

Given that athleticism is such a big part of Allen's game and that his
explosiveness was conspicuously absent until late last season, I was
interested (and delighted) to read that he's jumping out of the gym again.
Reports on, say, Perk dunking wouldn't do much for me, but this was
relevant.
