...he was a hailed as a pass first pg coming out of college and drew comparisons to Steve Nash, who he said he molded his game after. He hasn't done that at this level, but to say he was never a good passing pg is not true.


I thought the same.
Humble yourself.

I think doing that would have the same effect on Felts as going through withdrawals does for a crack whore.

Looking at some draft articles-- pass first was inaccurate but DX praised him for the mixture of shooting and passing while Chad Ford claimed he was capable of making "passes few NBA point guards could make"... so definitely not "shoot-first".

That's pretty much the one thing he won't do. Unless you count indirectly, like saying I want off this team because it can't win.

Jax thinks of himself as the ultimate teammate. He is far from it - there are things he does which undermine the team, like his constant whining to the refs while his team has to play 4 on 5 on the other end.

But because he thinks he's the ultimate teammate he will not call guys out publicly.

If worst came to worst, and lets be honest here - we aint that far away, would he be likely to shoot one?

Who am I to deny you your hope? He could take out Nazzy in a blaze of glory. You just need Nazzy to make a move on the new Mrs SJax.
