What is Gerald Henderson's ceiling? 

Post#1 » by moximus » Tue Mar 29, 2011 1:28 am

Gerald Henderson scored the final seven points, including the go-ahead jumper with 22 seconds left, and the short-handed Charlotte Bobcats staged an unlikely comeback now closing in the 8th spot of EC. if and when Hendo added 3-pointer to his game, how good can he be?

Richard Jefferson type of player, just better on defense. Maybe like a younger Grant Hill.

A slightly better version of Gerald Henderson.

He needs to develop 3PT range and needs to bulk up a bit to add some sort of post game to be an excellent player in the L. If he does that, he is going to be legit imo.

Henderson doesn't has the 3PT range, post up game, playmaking, rebounding like Mitch had. Mitch was an elite tiered scorer and shooter AND an awesome defender to boot.

This is basically his rookie season since Larry Brown absolutely hated him. He's already an elite defender, and he's been clutch this season in the 4th quarter...just needs to add range and probably better handles. I think once Jackson exits, Henderson is going to take over and get the 15-20 shots a night that he so desperately needs.

Kobe Bryant, yes serious, they have the same swagger, he is already a closer without a 3pt shot, Hendo needs to develop is a 3pt shot and improve his handles and the ability to drive in the lane.. if he can develop all of that, then watch out. Hes already an elite defender.
