When Jimmer was a sophomore I said

He would be better than Danny Ainge. I was laughed at. He didn't show those signs until late in Sophomore year.

So I don't say that about Emery, but I also don't scoff at it. I knew Jimmer very well and saw that he was a special kind of guy. I have never met Nick.

What Emery did this week was pretty amazing. I think it's undermined somewhat

I think he's good. Really good, in fact, with the potential to be incredible. I

As a two-way player you could argue he's closing in on Jimmer's impact already.

Level of impact, not his mark on BYU bastetball, mind you.

Jimmer scored 50+ call me back when Nick scores 60+, JK Nick is great

Nick was as hot & unstoppable against SF than Jimmer was in any game he played

Not sure whether to laugh or cry

I wonder if SF is as good as Arizona

SF's post players are a joke, but not their guardline. And they took turns

I'm not discounting Nick's game or his

Absolutely. He's no Jimmer yet. But his single-game performance

I think we are pretty much thinking on the same level

The fortunate thing is that we do not need a Jimmer, and quite honestly, I hope

Jimmer had Emery, Abuoh, Hartsock, and Davies. Our team was scary already, but

I'm just saying that TJ Haws will be every bit the threat that Emery is.

2/14/16 8:20am

Oh, I agree with you. I think Haws and Emery can post 50 point threats.

Jimmer has nothing to do with it. It's undermined because

Agreed. First Carlino, then Fischer, and now Nick are all guilty of Jimmer envy.

He's a freshman who has shown very good potential. The next step, which likely

Nick Emery is not as dominant as Jimmer, but he was Jimmeresque this past week

Jimmer had a huge leap from his Fr to Soph seasons

How did I never realize this? You are spot on.

One thing Jimmer had, even as a freshman, was the ability to score inside as

Just curious, did you watch yesterday's game?

Yesterday I missed, but I saw the Pacific game And others.

You can praise him all you want, but it's not going to convince him to transfer

Before Jimmer 20+ was a great game, 30+ was an exceptional one
