naiwf 0 Report post Posted March 24, 2006 I just want to know if anyone remembers who was the guy here that thought JJ would average 20+ per in the NBA. If he's LUCKY he'll have games like tonight where he can take nearly 20 shots just to score 11. I think LSU can take out Texas based on what I saw tonight.

Brett Favre 0 Report post Posted March 24, 2006 If Redick gets on a team like the Pistons, with good screeners like Sheed and Ben, he can definitely drop 15 points a game in the NBA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When exactly would he get minutes on the Pistons? Billups and Rip play a lot, and JJ has no ballhandling or defensive skills. Again, he's going to be a bust because he's a one side of the court player, who will get devoured by the speed and athleticism of the pro game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It'll be interesting seeing them in the regional final going against one of the other top teams, having not played anyone higher than a 9 so far. They have beaten both Gonzaga and UCLA this season. But wow, holy shit, Memphis is in the Elite 8. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sfaJack 0 Report post Posted March 24, 2006 How about Reddick to the Rockets? They're in desperate need of a good shooter to score when McGrady and/or Yao get collapsed on. He's certainly no worse than what they currently have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But they do need depth. It's not what I meant though. Redick can replace David Wesley. He's like a younger version of him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know what you mean, I'm just saying that most really good teams happen to have really good 2's, which is a large part of the reason WHY they tend to be really good. JJ can't play anywhere but the 2, so he'll either be a backup type role player like a Steve Kerr or a scrub starter like Ashton Korver on the Sixers who gives up more than he scores on a nightly basis. He's not worth a lottery pick, that's for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted March 24, 2006 YES YES YES. Fuck fucking duke! I've hated that goddamn team since their final 4 against IU where Laettner went around with a knife and stabbed the hoosiers and went to the freethrow line because IU got called for blocking.

cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted March 24, 2006 Teke, that would have been me that said the "I can't imagine Redick's last game being against LSU." It wasn't necessarily meant as smack (I'm hardly a Duke fan), but more of a comment to say "If JJ is really this amazing player there's no way he'd go out against LSU." As in if he wasn't going to win it all it he'd need to justify himself by going nuts vs. UConn in the title game in a 2 pt. loss. You know, when it comes down to it I'd much rather have Patrick Sparks in a money game than Redick. Not even close. My God, Redick literally cost Duke the game tonight with that shitty 3 for 18. And you know what was weird? I didn't give a shit. I wasn't laughing my ass off at Duke losing, since the entire game felt really off kilter. I could just look at Duke from the beginning and tell they didn't have it. In fact it would have been a major miscarriage of justice had they won. It also wasn't that unexpected really, since several people had predicted LSU and we all know Redick can choke like a bitch. When Duke lost to IU in 2002...now THAT was funny as shit. Tonight though? For some reason I just didn't care. Duke is becoming today's version of DePaul under Ray Meyer in the early 80s. Come in ranked #1, then lose quickly. I mean yeah Duke gets to the Sweet 16 every year, but that's just them getting their usual 2 squash games in Raleigh, Greensboro, Winston-Salem, etc. Once they step foot out of the Carolinas, they are screwed.
