Education of Jimmer includes ... little education

Little Isaiah Thomas is getting your minutes lately......not as easy as it was in college

Until you start being consistent than you have no chance in the NBa. Follow the Reddick route and work harder.

He will have a role in the nba........

There is nothing wrong with playing 8-10 years in the league as a back up pg

I saw this guy play in one of his first games in the league, and for a rookie, he was very good !Of course, there's such a thing as "beginner's luck", but there were definitely flashes of brilliance. Jimmer simply needs to gain experience, continue to work hard, and learn to sustain his level of play throughout the game. It will come with time.At best, Jimmer can be the next John Stockton. At worst, he can be a solid contributor, like a John Paxson or Terry.

Your least is still too high! Terry and Paxson were pretty great compared to Jimmer. Hummer is erratic!

the guy is like 25 games into his pro career, are you really writing him off already?
he's got time to figure out his role in the league.
it is not really a surprise that he has struggled on a team entrenched in losing the way sac is.
eventually, a smart team may buy low on jimmer and turn him into a nice spark off the bench.

It took JJ a few years before he found his role on the Magic.

JJ was a far better shooter than Jimmer. JJ had almost perfect form where Jimmer is a bit of a unconventional shooter. His % in college was never that good and was wildly inconsistent, not so with JJ. Both can't play defense.

No way will he be John Stockton. More like....Jeff Hornacek. Solid all around player.

Hornacek was a far better ball handler and could play defense. Jimmer doesn't know the meaning of defense.

You're an idiot if you think he is a bust.

I never said he was a bust. I said he was erratic. The guy is not consistent w/ his shots and he continues to shoot. I said he needs to work harder to at least get to Reddick stature. You guys are very sensitive!

Hornacek, Paxson, and Terry are all smart players who knows how to adjust.

Guy can be the next Steve Kerr/ Craig Hodges. If he is willing to take changes and get floor burns while hitting the open 3's, any team in the league could use him.

The Kings aren't exactly the perfect fit for Mr. Fredette.

Keep in mind that BYU players dont transition well in the NBA, they have alot of talent in college but fail in the NBA.

I think that's a lot of college players in general. I don't think you can single out BYU...unless of course you're a Pokes fan. :)
