Eddie House? Ben Gordon? Curry? Better? There are people talking him up as a #1 pick and people saying he should go undrafted. I dont think ive ever seen this big a difference in where the supporters and haters of a player have him ranked.
Re: Jimmer video. Ive watched him a bit this year and I cant decide on a prediction.
Jimmer reminds me a lot of Gilbert Arenas in that he uses his body well to finish against bigger bodies and randomly chucks up deep threes. He also posses a very good handle and has pretty good court vision, the kid doesn't make many mistakes.
I'm not worried about his ability to stick in the league; if Juan Carlos Navarro can stick, then I'm sure a more talented player can stick as well. The big red flags are that he's old (22) and white which will definitely hurt his draft stock. Since the draft class is so poor, I'm 100% sure he'll be drafted in the first round. I'd peg him in the late lottery where he invariably lands onto the Utah Jazz.
His ceiling is a sixth man and his floor is a journeyman.

I'm sorry but what makes you think he is more talented than Juan Carlos Navarro.

No.@9
People tout his range but he's shooting from regular NBA distance.
And being in Utah I've seen a lot of him.
He's more creative off the bounce than people give him credit for, but realistically, he jacks up some HORRIBLE shots. Not squared up, defender in the face, with no rebounder in position.
He won't be able to get away with that in the pros.
