Jimmer won't be cut before January if he's cut at all.
dude! you will look bad when he gets cut.
Jimmer won't be cut before January if he's cut at all.
Gave the Kings preseason game a rewatch and found that the rhetoric against Jimmer is unjustified. I myself had said it was a terrible game for Jimmer or something to that effect. But the reality is that he played well; except his shot was not dropping very well in the first game.
First stint
* Made a three negated by Kawhi's turnover.
* Nice pick n' pop assist to LMA.
* No defensive lapses. Actually played good defense on Rondo for that matter.
* Good pass diagonal pass to Mills in the corner for a three that he didn't take.
* Great drive and floater that he didn't convert; but LMA cleaned it up b/c his man had to help.
* A good hard cut to the basket that LMA could've hit him on; in any event, it made the defense shift and created options at the three for other rotating players. LMA elected to brick a turnaround shot though.
* He created a mismatch for LMA on a quick transition after a made basket; and when Cousins went to double, he received an open three (which is exactly what the Spurs want).
* A hard close on Beli to not allow him an open three.
* Jimmer's thee presence on a post-up isolation prevented a strong side double. He would make a great back cut on the perimeter to get open for the three; LMA did not hit him and instead took Cousins 1v1 and was fouled.
* West committed a turnover on a collapse play that brilliantly left Jimmer open for three. Instead, West forced it. Come regular season, those plays will be hammered out and Jimmer will get the ball in rhythm and hit the bomb.
* Negative +/- very attributable to LMA playing very poorly within the offensive scheme. (LMA was taken out at the same time as Jimmer when RM came in and had a good +/-)
2nd Stint
* Good drive and floater. At the time I thought it was forced; but on the re-watch, I realize he knew he could easily get that shot on the much smaller David Stockton. He just didn't convert.
* Heads up foul on Anderson after he burned the other Anderson to not allow an easy lay-up.
* Good rotation. Anderson made the pass too high, so Jimmer couldn't get the open three off. A good drive; but then it looked like he was indecisive about shooting a floater or kicking to the corner and it was a turnover.
* Great use of the screen by Boban and then a "great" pass to Boban for a would-be dunk that he dropped. Btw, the reports of eye rolls by ST'ers are bunk. He clapped his hands and was muttering to himself. He directed no ill will to Boban though. For all we know, he wished he put the ball a little higher so that the ball couldn't be swatted from the big man's hands.
* Passed up on a good three from the side from KA. Pass was a bit low; but it was Stockton coming late. He should've taken it. But it was early in the shot clock; and those are the kind of 'mess-ups' a coach can live with.
* Missed a corner three. Rushed it, imo. A pump fake for the oncoming Stockton and a step to the side and shot would've been better, imo. But the shot he took was not bad per say.
* Played better defense against Stockton than Ray did, tbh.
And as an aside for all the Rasual Butler nut huggers; Kings players took it to the hole on him for scores on multiple occasions.
Spurtacular's melting down over multiple threads is priceless.
Maybe he'll make the team, maybe not -- but this this will live in infamy.
That's just a pic. Give us a link.
Fake like usual.
Dumb ass.
hearing fredette, sykes, thomas and ndyoye didn't make the trip...
What does this mean?
Will he get released before this thread hits 100 pages?
Jimmer
no minutes
practice dummy
pink slip coming
...aaaand logged out.
Well too bad he didn't play against the Heat.
I wonder why Spurs put him on ice?
Most of the scrubs barely played. This is one of those games where Pop tried to work on chemistry for the roster players that are actually good. So not a lot of minutes for Jimmer. On the flip, bad for him that he can't get 3 minutes in this game. Though he wins when others play and suck even when he doesn't play.
20 guys; not everyone gonna play. Most DNPs decided in advance.
Minus 11 for McCallum tonight. Not surprised he couldn't close, tbh.
No one out performed him. Anderson the bed after a great first game. Ray sucked 2 in a row. Simmons was out of control. Butler also was mia. Only good bench player was manu.
Side note green looks terrible 2 games in
Can someone post a replay of the game when it becomes available? Thanks
Green had a pretty strong game. What were you looking at?
Green is averaging 6ppg 2 rpg on 30 percent in 20 mpg. He needs to score this year. He needs to rebound this year. He needs to shoot well this year.
Meh...it's one game.
Thank You, Jesus.
He's been ok... his shot is just not falling. The only disappointing thing with him is that he doesn't seem to have improved in the handles department.
But I mean, after the household discount he gave us, just being the same ol' Danny Green should work just fine.
