I think JJ is going to have a very good year for a rookie. He has the potential to become a very good player in the NBA. He won't be a Kobe or a LeBron, but he could very easily become a 15-20 PPG scorer. Jeff Hornacek comes to mind when I think about what JJ could do in the NBA.

J.J. is just a shooter, he can't create his own shot, he isn't athletic, hes too small to play the 2guard. If J.J. was a point guard he'd have a lot of upside to his game and would prolly be taken with one of the 3 picks. But since he ain't look for him to come off the bench.

Thank you for regurgitating everything the naysayers on ESPN say about him. He is more athletic than people give him credit for that's for sure and he CAN create his own shot. Did you watch any Duke games this year? He had guys face guarding him for 40 minutes a game and had entire defenses geared towards stopping him and he STILL got to the basket and to the free throw line every game. He's not just a jump shooter, that's just what he does best. (See 'Three Pointers, NCAA Record' for more information)
