    He would be fine coming off the bench to jack up threes but that's about it.

    Which would be pretty good for Portland since that was something they lacked last year.

    May as well just sign Dan Dickau to the vet minimum.

    OK, maybe not. If the Blazers can't move up from #21, and Fredette is available, I wouldn't mind the pick at all. He has the potential to be an elite shooter, and that late in the draft, you may as well draft for an exceptional skill. Between Kenneth Faried and Fredette, though, I'd want Faried.

    Is there anything to the thought that Jimmer is a better-shooting Blake?

    I'm thinking more Voshon Lenard meets Kyle Korver.

    I'm sure Jimmer will make a really good off-the-bench shooter on an uptempo team that doesn't play any defense ... he'll fit right in.

    He sure would help our awesome defense. We would be the next bulls. Especially now that we signed Nate for a few more years.

    I'd take that at the 21st pick, though.

    Exactly. 21st or nothing. He will make a rotation but guys like Jimmer need lots of shots to get going. Coming off the bench ........he won't get it. I just don't think he will be impressive in the association.

    Seeing that they'd rather skype than a formal face-to-face meeting is telling.

    At least that's how see it.
