It's his biggest and brightest red flag. There is a history of players who have succumb to their poor free throw shooting, and a history of players who have overcome it. Andre Iguoadala is a player who constantly comes to mind when I think about Jackson. Iguadala has shot in the 60s/50s from the free throw line 6-years throughout his career. Something to keep in mind.

Booker
Jackson
Warren
Chriss/Bender/Williams?
Not bad. With bender in there, you have an interesting mix of offense and defense.
We'd probably get killed on the boards though.
Re: Suns draft Josh Jackson at #4
He did last year when PJ was injured early in the season. I thought it worked out well. We would run off a quick 6-0 run before the other team adjusted. Warren is a tough cover for NBA 4s in the open court. Goes both ways, though.Split T wrote:Warren might see some time as a small ball 4. Might be a good spot for him.

So far, so good. Impressed with Jackson behind the mic.
What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

Re: Suns draft Josh Jackson at #4
Here is a much better highlight video:
There are a number of great highlights that show off his passing ability, ball handling, open court creativity, and overall offensive versatility. Plus! For those who don't like dunks, there are some solid, solid layups.

Re: Suns draft Josh Jackson at #4
He looks like he could kick the sh1t out of any of the guys drafted above him. That's got to count for something. I was soooo happy the C's took Tatum. This was the best possible scenario after we got hosed in the lottery.

How he scored: 33 baskets made in ISO situations, 29 baskets on cuts/lobs, 19 baskets in transition, 14 baskets from second chance, 14 baskets on pull up jumpers, 12 baskets out of the post, and 10 baskets in spot up situations.
No guarantee that I counted correctly.

Re: Suns draft Josh Jackson at #4
I think Josh Jackson's offensive ability is very underrated.ShelC wrote:I do like the theme, I just hope Jackson develops into a high level defender and above average offensive player in some capacity (corner 3s, driving the ball, something). You need to have an offensive threat everywhere on the floor in today's NBA.
Trendon Watford. Please and thank you.

Re: Suns draft Josh Jackson at #4
I watched that video and I liked Jackson's passing more than I thought I would. That is encouraging. Lots of clips of him finding an open man, finding a cutter, finding a seam, etc.
Re: Suns draft Josh Jackson at #4
That's his best attribute, IMHO. He reads basketball plays very well on both ends of the floor.Marty [Mori Chu] wrote:I watched that video and I liked Jackson's passing more than I thought I would. That is encouraging. Lots of clips of him finding an open man, finding a cutter, finding a seam, etc.
