This article is from Elite Sports NY. Jimmer Fredette is becoming a star in China putting up some serious numbers. I believe he never got a fair shot in the NBA or with the Knicks. I know the CBA is not the NBA but this dude can play, he should get another chance in the league. What do you guys Think?

he totally got a fair shot. what's bizarre is how teams couldn't find a way to capitalize on his ability to score while mitigating his shortcomings on D. How is it Isiah Thomas manages to contribute the way he does for celts; all star etc. and teams can't find a role for Jimmer. Weird

I too think he got a fair shot. He strong kid can shoot great, but appeared to not be coachable and defense liability.
CBA or Euroope a good place for him.

Speed kills. Isaiah is able to create separation and easy shots. Jimmer can create, but a lot of his shots became tougher because of his lack of NBA athleticism. If Jimmer learned how to find better shots within an offense he would've became more valuable. JJ Reddick realized this and found success.

Knicks can easily dominate China major league.
You outscore your opponent and you win.

Thought this was going to be about Jorts; he won the MVP there a few years ago.

it is super weird, JJ redick is less talented then Jimmer and is a bona fide starter in this league... you would think Jimmer would be JJ 2.0 at the very least.... I think he gets another shot esp with how terrible defense in general is around the league.... this league is all offense you can't even touch a guy driving to the lane unless he has a knicks uniform on.
