Message: [QUOTE="JohnFSilver, post: 4392865, member: 1618"] Shooting is such a premium these days, he’s going to have to be able to show he can be a catch and shoot 3-point shooter. I like Jackson’s versatility and defensive potential. But, he is going to have to continue the shooting improvement from last season. Certainly he is going to be in the radar with the athleticism plus skill. But, shooting in the modern nba has an outsized place as a skill set. It is all about floor spacing. You either create offense or you finish on offense. If Jackson can’t be a creator of shots, he has to be an off ball finisher. He has athleticism to do it. But man, hard to play a non-scorer at the wing in the nba. Offense is too valuable these days. Luckily, shooting is something that can improved rapidly early in a career. [/QUOTE]
