    The person that created this thread should be punished, Singapore-style.

    EDIT: Just saw who started it. LOL. Nevermind. Don't start none...won't be none.

      Yes, but that's not what supporters are selling him as.

      They want to say that JJ is going to be a very good player. If JJ supporters just realized that his potential is Steve Kerr or John Paxson then I'd bet that 85% of the arguments would end right then and there.

      Instead, because supporters want to act like JJ is a very good player and just needs more minutes to show that, he's going to have the "can't create" argument because that's what every very good player can do in the league.

                I don't think he is that great of a spot up shooter. I think he needs to be used in more motion sets where he can Ray Allen it rather than Dell Curry it.

                Just my opinion but I hate seeing this guys with a knack to score better in the midrange not get those shots.

                  I'll say that he scored 15 points.

                  If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                    After previously scoring 6, 2, 0, 0, and 0.

                    Again, Kwame had a 3 game stretch in I believe 2003 or 2004 where he averaged about 20 and 12. He still isn't a good NBA player, but almost anyone in the NBA is capable of scoring 15 points once. It's the first time he's scored 15 since mid January.

                        JJ is playing well in the playoffs. I think we all knew he wasn't going to be a superstar, but he'll be a valuable player. He's improved his ball-handling, and acts as a second point guard out there for ORL. Also, he's kept a hand in Ray Allen's face for most of his shots.

                        But what do I know.

                          PJ was infinitely more athletic than JJ Redick. Tyrus Thomas, a similar sized player as PJ, did a GREAT job playing D on Redick if you recall from the Duke/LSU game in the tourney a few years back.

                            Garrett Temple was the one D'ing up Redick pretty much that entire game.

                              I'm still shocked at how JACKED Redick looks compared to his Duke days.
