He's been averaging more than 4 asts per night since the all star break. I don't care how easy the passes might've looked. It takes athleticism/ability/instincts to consisently get into the position to set up your teammates for easy looks when you're not the primary ballhandler. Obviously you're not a fan of his, but If you compare his numbers after the all star break this year to Kirielenko's season numbers, they are very close. When you take his elite athleticism with his rapidly developing skills, I think the sky is the limit here. But he won't be attainable.
Back on topic, JR Smith could definitely be attainable. He looked good in Nov/Dec and late last year. He's got prototypical 2g size and athleticism...I just can't figure out why he's in BScott's doghouse. But when you compare him to the 2g's available in the 20's, he trumps all of em. I would certainly offer a pick for him.
Not true, it takes guys on your teams to make baskets, JJ and Al have been making baksets. He is not getting easy baskets for anyone. Again comparing him to Kirlenko is a Joke, just look at the between the legs pass AK gave boozer in traffic, they are galaxies apart, not even close. Lets not overhype the guy, he is averaging 2 assist per game for the season, that is not ground breaking for a guy playing off the ball....
Did you watch the Hawks-Knicks game? He had some nice feeds in that game....there was one where he got an offensive rebound and touch passed it to a guy for a finish. That was very impressive. I understand his 2nd half numbers are not a lot to go on, but I don't think you can ignore what he has been doing. Anyway, clearly you don't like Josh's game, and I do, not much more either of us can say at this point, except the fact that he's not a Knick and probably will never be...
yea, I saw that, it was nice, so what, he also shot 3/9, and fouled out, I am not saying he isn't going to make some spectacular plays here and there, but he is a marginal player, listen I like the hawks, I follow the hawks, I watched Josh down here when he was a kid in AAU games, he was a whiner and always put up as this great talent, he has been overrated his whole life down here, I am not a fan of his at all, it goes back a ways. On the other hand Dwight Howard has always been the hard worker, didn't buy into this how great he was crap, kept working, he is a real prospect. Josh smith is a hack, he can jump out the gym so that gets him hustle blocks, some putbacks and some highlight plays, but the guy can't play! I understand we don't agree here, but I don't care about getting the guy, I would rather get josh childress. Much better "player"..
Anyone who sits around and waits for the lottery to better themselves, either in real life or in sports, Is a Loser...............
