I knew Morrison & Fredette would suck. But I also thought Curry & Redick would suck. Jury is still out on Hield (who I also thought would suck).
I've always liked the idea of having a guy like Fredette on the team but if we are playing 4 on 5 defensively when he's on the court and he's just a spot up 3 point shooter, he's going to only see blow out minutes. That's just the way we roll here in H-Town, baby!
Instead of a 3-point specialist whose already failed in the NBA, we should poach someone from THIS team that specializes in 4-point shots:
Reminds me of the hotspots from NBA Jam TE, except they're static and not some random, ridiculous amount that can swing the entire game. Imagine having to suffer through Rafer missing teardrops that are worth 7 points.
I think there is a point, again, on the theory we only focus on the warriors; where we have to go full "3rd Quarter against the clippers desperation mode" where everyone is launching 3s at a high pace and in that eventual moment, I would rather have a 3pt shooter more than another Big Man. And we have the point god on our side too, so there is a point to be made he could be at least a decent enough bet on our team
If Brandon Knight isn't healthy enough to get on the court and make a difference I would like to see Jimmer's name called up as that backup guard. Like you said Chris Paul is whipping him passes so he should get a ton of wide open looks. Not too mention the ones from Harden.
Good question. Position: Shooting Guard Who Jimmer guards: The scrubiest perimeter player on the other team's 2nd and 3rd units
The NCAA? I play with Jimmer off of the bench instead of MCW when I play with the Rockets on Live 18. That said, if we keep Caboclo and want to develop Hartenstein etc etc, we don't have roster spots anymore.
