why you shouldn't draft J.J. Redick

I'm going to give you two players, Player A and Player B, and we'll do a little comparison.

Player A is a 6'3, 197 pound shooting guard. In his four years in college, he averaged 14.5 points a game on 45.1% field goal shooting. He was 342/802 from three point line, at an outstanding 42.6% clip. He also averaged 2.9 rebounds per game and 1.9 assists ( Read more... )

I knew excatly where you were going with this from the start but do you care to list the people on Trajon Langdon's NBA team? If JJ lands on a team with a good big man and good guard who can draw doubles he can be a very productive pro. An the poeple on that list i'd take over him are Roy, Douby, Collins (only becuase of his size and possible point guard play), and Gansey in order. I cant really see adams or ager doing much in the NBA and i dunno about foye, lowry is the real big game player on that team.

long reply on my page. And Hassan Adams? Yeah, there's a role model for you.

Oh yeah, Brandon Roy is obviously a more complete player...I'd take him over Redick too, but I don't know enough about the other guys you mentioned to pass judgment...except Gansey? What separates him from J.J. Redick? And there weren't really any opportunities for Redick to take the last shot (like Langdon) were there? I certainly can't remember any for this season, except that he was outstanding down the stretch in Duke's OT win over Florida State. Coach K praised Redick more than Langdon...hell, Roy Williams even praised J.J. like none other.
