We really have to keep him. Think about how good he could be offensively and defensively if the coaching staff just helped him to stop making those bonehead plays on and off the court. He has too much firepower and potential to trade unless we get a starting pg in return or a guy who can get his off the bench every night.</p>
Have you ever seen him play?? Hes probably the second best gaurd defender off the nuggets bench next to bobby jones.</p>
Well i saw him, when he played for the Hornets, and I remember him not being able to defend a fly.</p>
J.R. needs someone to watch him at all times. Somebody has to stop him from acting like a half crazy person or his career is likely to go down the toilet. But he deserves one more chance to play, for15-20 minutes a game for at least half a season. If Karl won't play him, trade him to the Heat or the Wolves or something.</p>
