See Speights and Crawford. Plus Allen Iverson was a high volume shooting, 6 foot PG who didn't like to play defense and he's going to the HOF. It can be done.

This D-League experiment could not be going any better for Jimmer.

Jimmer needs to be Jamal Crawford/Marreese Speights

That's the thing no one wants to put the offense in the hands of a 6 ft

Ya but those guys were 'athletic'. No one wants to put their offense in Jimmers

It's not their whole offense. It's 10-15 minutes a game max.

Eddie House as well but these guys didnt need the ball in their hand

Jimmer needs the ball in his hands for 15-20 sec of every shot clock to be

I disagree that he has to have the ball. His is effective spotting up too.

It was terrible with the Pelicans and pushed him out of the league

Not really.

I get that Neto is a pretty solid defender, a bit of a pest and Jimmer can't

It really is incredible how blind Jimmer fanatics are.

How many teams were knocking on Neto's door when the Jazz drafted him

smokymountainrain

Plenty of teams would give him an opportunity now..

Teams weren't clamoring for Gobert when the Jazz drafted him late 1st rd either

And yet Jimmer was a massive bust and Neto was a steal.

I'm not sure you can call Neto a huge steal yet. He is a solid defensive player

I didn't call him a "huge steal". I said he was a steal.

Ok,yes Jimmer isnt NBA material but lol @ jazz fans speaking on fan blindedness.

Here is the #1 problem with Jimmer: his handle isn't good enough to be a PG,

My main concern judging from his D-league highlights is that he does not seem to

Nothing about the d league can be considered "unreal"

My post isn't about the D-League, it's about Jimmer.

So, what you're saying is that an NBA GM needs to give a fringe NBA player at

Read my post again. I said that Jimmer likely hasn't proven anything to GM's

Duke Silver

2/13/16 10:19pm

You're right, you said coach, not GM

What is a "Jimmer fan"? Who on this board is not a fan of Jimmer?
