Jimmer has been getting some playing time 

Post#1 » by TeaM DimE » Thu Jan 1, 2015 4:41 am

Can he ever have a productive NBA career? He has had b2b solid games. 21 minutes yesterday scoring 9 points and tonight he had 14 points in 25 minutes.

Defense = Playing time

So its up to Jimmer how hard he wants to work on the defensive end to get enough playing time to get his offense to show through.

Just look at Kyle Korver, it was only when his defense got better was when he finally got a starting spot in Atlanta.

Then go make a thread about him.... :crazy:
Grangers an established player who's played nearly 30 min per game in that stretch, not really worthy of a thread.

However, this thread is about a player who had a big following, and never lived up to the hype in the league. I'm glad he's finally starting to get some time/touches. Was happy when we got him in Chicago, but Thibs obviously wouldn't give him the proper time to show his skills.

He is going to be out of the league soon, IMO.


He is a shooter who can't shoot. Let that sink in..



He's just not a good basketball player.
