Good call Chris. That's why I hate it when people are already labeling JR a bust. It's just that Bill Walker came as such a surprise, even to the organization, IMO. He responded unbelievably after having knee surgery. He also has the right personality because he felt like he belonged from day one. I mean, the guy got into it with KG in training camp. That's not normal for a typically star-struck rookie.
Don't call JR a bust because Bill Walker is ahead of him on the depth chart. We haven't seen what JR has in an NBA level game. He has shown NBA level skills in the DL that I personally think can translate well, but it's hard to gage at this point. You're right. Once he focuses his energy on the right things, it can be a very positive asset. It's just weird for him to be on the bench for the first time in his life, and he is using up his energy the only way he knows how: with hilariously entertaining reactions to every play on the court.
