Jamaal has a 6'10" wingspan and can (could) jump.

It seems the Jazz are worried about the "Jimmer" fans and how they....

I know the reason but it would probably get me benched for a day or two

I wonder if there's a little of the "Tebow" effect where teams are worried

Yes, mostly this.

Did you just compare Jimmer not getting a job to Kaep?... This is peak CB.

In that the circus effect is real, and part of the reason neither are in their

Look, I love Jimmer, but there is a reason he was a journeyman in the NBA

Devouring1

The circus and his ego are reasons.

Maybe the NBA teams are colluding to keep Jimmer out 🙂

Jimmer is the biggest star that isn't remotely a star. Go figure.

I feel like he could be a JJ Reddick clone for an nba team

This is exactly the issue. Jimmer’s skill set doesn’t have a place in the NBA.

Completely different styles. Redick does his scoring coming off screens and does

Reddick doesnt need the ball to get his shot. I dont think Jimmer excels running

Reddick worked to be a very decent defender - plus he’s got decent size

That many points is not super ridiculous in China.

Dillinger

JR Smith averaged 35 PPG the one year he played there.

Russ Smith did it 3 times last year? Whoever Jimmer played had like 65.

Dillinger

Because they're mostly guys with the length and athleticism to get it done on

Isn't it obvious why Jimmer didn't make it in the NBA but thrives in China?

Medute

This is the best take of all of why Jimmer is not in the NBA.
