If that was JB then I was wrong and that would be very encouraging Just watched again to make sure and it was definitely him. Decent stroke from the FT line too. Obviously, I don't expect him to be an outside threat, but given how much he'll be banging inside, I'm hopeful his FT% is decent-to-good. 1 bauman reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheChosenOne Posted September 6, 2019 1 hour ago, moytoy12 said: The high school clips of Jimerson show his ability to score in a variety of ways, including attacking the basket. Of course, D-1 is a whole new animal, but based on these clips and Coach’s comments, I think we can expect Jimerson to be more than just a spot up 3 point specialist. The highlight video of Bell in the article was good to see. Showed a little more athleticism then I had seen in other clips (and also sank a few 3’s). Yeah, I meant when they get to the major college level. We will see whether Jimerson is able to demonstrate a complete game early in his career. It sounds like he certainly has that in him, so I am not doubting he will ever get there, just how soon he will be capable of doing so at this level. Something to watch.

HoosierPal Posted September 6, 2019 2 hours ago, TheChosenOne said: Maybe this is true, but often times guys who come in as more true 3 point shooter types struggle to get to the line early in their career. I have no idea whether this applies to Jimmmerson as well since I have never seen him play, but something to think about. As Pistol knows, finding Jimerson's stats on line is a challenge. I did find his 2018 summer Boo Williams stats. In 18 games, he only shot 7 FT, making 6. 40 of 87 from the arc though is nice. So yeah, I wouldn't count on Jimerson getting anywhere close to 100 trips to the line. https://www.d1circuit.com/roster_players/24347467 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bauman Posted September 22, 2019 I just finished reading an article in The Athletic and it had an interesting comment about Roy Williams (UNC) and his preferences regarding roster construction. It said he wants 3 PGs on his teams. It made me think that we might very well be where one of the all-time leading winners wants to be, with JG, YC and either TW or DJ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
