Now that the C's are shooting so well, I'd be fine gambling on a guy with a questionable jump shot if he did everything else well. I think Josh Jackson is that guy.
Even if it means endless forum posts about how good he could be if he only fixed he shot?
He was never considered a non shooter
I couldnt care less if there is a little hitch....as long as he can make the open jump shot/3 pt shot
His shot has always been considered questionable, at best.
He has shot 10-18 from 3 point land in the past 4 games
But he gets no credit from you. I get it, you just dont like him
So I don't like him because I don't think a FOUR game sample of EIGHTEEN shots is enough?
I think too much is being questioned about his shot. The slight hitch can be fixed. has fixed his shot, it's still not amazing, but you have to respect it and thats all you need.
Scal said the NBA is going to the 3pt shot, and at some point teams will scheme against it. to have a guy who can get to the hoop like Jackson and Brown will be YUGE in a couple years. Jackson is smooth on the court, great handles, finishes and passes well. Kinda reminds me of a more athletic Steve Smith. Not a great outside threat, but has to respected, but 6'8" pt forward who plays inside the pt line.
I could see Jackson playing the 2 from the get go. He's not big enough for the 4 and some times the 3, but he's quick enough to play the 2 and his length would be great on D against other 2's.
He doesn't have to be a great 3pt shooter, but a respectable one that will open up the rest of his game.
