Jimmer

[Batman]

I used to hate talking about JIMMER. Now, I am humored when he is mentioned because he ****ing failed and is rubbish.

Please don't be racist.

Im too lazy to look it up but isn't Jimmer shooting in the low 30% range for his NBA career?

He led the league in three point shooting either this past year or the year before I think.
Also led the league in free throw percentage.

Jimmer sucks in allot of ways...... But not at shooting

During his senior season I always compared Jimmer to JJ Redick, which was apparently offensive to many (this before Redick developed decently). At least statistically, their college numbers were near identical year for year. Neither one of them would be the types of players they were in college. I still maintain that comparison and, in that regard, I think he could hold value somewhere in the league. There's been a lot of Jimmer love over the years simply because he played at BYU. There's also been a lot of irrational hate of Jimmer because he played at BYU and because his following has been rather annoying (keep in mind these are BYU fans and not necessarily Jazz fans [weak ones, if that] -- plus, like half of BYU students aren't from Utah and the ones that are often move out of state, so a lot of Jimmermania has moved elsewhere [e.g. you've probably never heard anyone clamoring to hire Danny Ainge as coach or GM). People probably wouldn't be going into convulsions every time his name was mentioned if there weren't that baggage (and his name probably wouldn't be mentioned enough). But, just like after Redick's first number of disappointing seasons, I still believe the talent he/they have will still translate in some sphere of the basketball world. That probably isn't here or now, though, but there could be some upside.

Look a few years back when he got some playing time.
He had back to back years when he shot nearly 50% from 3.

Last year he barely had any attempts. Sample size too small.

If jimmer is on your team and you play him allot he gets a decent amount of looks from three then he will make a high percentage.
He is a good shooter. This should not even be a question

Ha ha. Just checked his career stats u are right. Still 9-48 this last year from three. Could be a sign of no confidence and pretty bad. Even for a small sample size

Ya.
And I don't really want jimmer here. It would be a mess.

I still think if he finds the perfect situation then he could be a decent back up situational type player..... Like eddie house was.
Not likely but possible

Here's my tongue-in-cheek response:

*Let people blow by him. If they do, they've got Gobert and Favors to contend with. They can have as many 2pt baskets as they'd like (assuming Gobert/Favors lets them) because Jimmer is coming down for a three on the other end.

*Before you aim to crucify, please read first line again.

Chicago and New Orleans, two teams with well-above average defensive front courts, have tried the Jimmer experiment. Both teams have barely spent time to kick the tires twice before cutting bait. There is no place for Jimmer.

He should re-find his stroke and get to Europe or China before it's too late.

I agree. I just don't want him here and watch homie start threads like "Why don't the Jazz play Jimmer more. " or "Jimmer needs more mins fire coach Q. " That would be annoying
