Didn't read. He won't even be on the opening day roster.

This has kind of an Adam Morrison vibe to it. "The next Larry Bird." Amazing shooter in college, but juuuuuust not quite good enough for the NBA. I hope they're right this time, but I'm not getting that vibe.
Not really much of a read...just a Salt Lake guy saying that Fredette will succeed...because...Spurs...
U that lazy
Like the Patriots making something of Tebow.
I expect him to make the team. Not a great article though.
Ehhhhh.
I don't know why people say that. It wasn't he didn't have nba skills. It was that he was on squads that don't develop players or teach skills. Then you get into a losing environment and there is a negative hype surrounding a player, and confidence lowers, and the team begins switching players and any hint of success is attributed to subs ution....
Long and short of it is this. Anyone who drafted Morrison or Jimmer to be a franchise player is an idiot. Any fan who thought that Morrison or Jimmer could be the star of an NBA team is an idiot. These guys both played for and were drafted by terrible, terrible, teams and franchises, and put in situations where they would fail.
They are both NBA shooters. They just had some bad luck and bad fits.
hopeful mormon homer tbh... + anyone can say the spurs can revive someone's career.
probably, but the reality is had players like Jimmer or Morrison started with SA, they most likely wouldn't be out of the league or on the fringe. Jimmer and Morrison are both better and have more potential than players like Joseph or Neal.
A broach. Or a pterodactyl...
No, just not a got like you ducks.
I wish Jimmer the best of luck but he will probably cut cut in training camp and finish his basketball career playing overseas.
Didn't read, but I agree with the sentiment that if Jimmer is going to be successful it'll be due to his role and development with the Spurs. I'm more optimistic than some that he'll actually make the roster and earn minutes.
The Spurs' front office has a track record of being dumb.
Why else would they pick up someone like Jimmer Fredette?
The mormon on mormon violence in that comment section is pretty tough...
I agree. Steve Kerr made a long NBA career as a shooter! Jimmer if given a chance could gave a career like Kerr.
To be fair, they picked him up for training camp. Nothing guaranteed. And, no one is upset with him getting a TC invite. All the discussion is about whether he gets a real roster spot, but TC will decide that.
