While it's true that Powell's injury might've sapped him of enough to make him much less effective (time will tell), it's a completely false narrative that all he could do before the injury was "run and jump." Yes, he could do those things, but it's that Stanford brain that made the Luka/Powell combo so great, not the running and jumping. Knowing when to screen, when to slip, when to expect the ball on a short roll, when to go super hard, which angle to take, the timing, etc, etc, etc.
I agree, except...I think the running and jumping helps too
