    What do yall think about him? I think he's the best shooter in college basketball, hands down...the kid has amazing range and one of the quickest releases I've seen...He'll probably be a Steve Kerr type in the NBA, with a tad more athleticism, but it's refreshing to see such a pure shooter...41% on 3s and a 97% FT shooter...wow...I also like his cockiness and attitude, for some reason, he has the classic shooter's mentality...

    I agree,I think he has a chance to be the best 3pt shooter in college history. He is a HUGE reason the Devils are where they are right now. As my old coach would say heis got ice in his veins when the game is on the line... [​IMG]

    I think he's awsome. He's so good at the point and a great perimeter shooter IMO.

    Well, JJ stays mainly at the 2, partly because Duhon and Ewing take care of the point, and partly because his handle is questionable. He is a classic catch and shoot guy, a la Kerr, but when he's cold from downtown he's done.

    Otherwise, I'm impressed by his tenacity, and in keeping with the shooters mentality, he's not afraid to fire away when he's been cold all game.

    I love Reddick. He must have very good work ethic and training habits to be that good of a shooter and to make all those consecutive shooting. He is good against the zone, so he would be a good pickup for any team needing a pure shooter.

    He's not really a point...and I don't think he can ever play the point...


    Anyways, Reddick is an outstanding shooter, but I dunno, he kind of reminds me of Chris Herren....might just be whole weed thing....but Reddick doens't look 6'4'' to me...he seems shorter but I dunno [​IMG]

    Reddick is one of my current and all time favorite college players. He's just so good at what he does. One of the best players in the college league ever. He has such a great shot combined with a quick release, no fear, he has ice in his veins much like George "Iceman" Gervin. Plus he can defend really well, he has no fear of anyone, his attitude seems alright to me, he's not that cocky and even if he were he has a right to be. Really clutch fellow.

    Since when does Reddick ever run the point? I have seen a lot of Duke basketball games and I have never seen him ever run that. Duke's primary PG's are Duhon, Ewing, and Dockerty. Reddick always plays shooting guard because you don't want him handling the ball. You want Reddick coming off screens and lighting it up as soon as he catches it.

    I think Reddick might be the best shooter in the history of college basketball. He is simply amazing how well he shoots the ball.

    playa,it's one thing to not like a team,but to disrespect a superb team by sayin' they suck is downright wrong [​IMG] Duke is one of the top teams in the nation(not to mention the current #1)
