Vance Jackson looks like a cross between both Hamilton's

[mauconnfan]

For now if he's Rashad or Preston Schumpert I'm all in. But he's big, strong and 18-19 years old, has plenty of time to be able to put it on the floor and get to the rim better than these guys as well as even post up at some point to use his mismatch size. We have no idea what he is, but coming out in your first game against anyone and going 4-6 from 3 is nice to see for sure. There's something there!

I think he is a cross between Larry Bird and Sue Bird.

That love child would have been Niels Giffey.

I haven't seen him actually play yet, but based on our fellow Boneyarder's descriptions and newspaper write-ups, he doesn't sound like either Hamilton. He's a big kid with a nice three point shot and it sounds like he's a pretty willing passer. Rip was a good 3 point shooter, but it was hardly his best trait. Ball handling and mid range game was Rips best attribute. Dham was a very average 3 point shooter. Again, ball handling was his best trait.

Is Jackson much of a ball handler? He sounds slow as well. The Hamilton's were not lightning fast, but I also wouldn't call either slow.

From the very limited amount I have seen him his upside is maybe Doug McDermott.

Wow - lots to clean up. He is not the runner that Rip or Donny were. Has not shown that motor from what I saw. Kid has height and a nice shot.

Larry Bird - Are you kidding?

I'd take that

He's a cross between Admiral Bird and the Birdman of Alcatraz.

Chief, you should know better.

Larry Bird - Are you kidding?

Quite frankly Bird wouldn't be much of a player in the modern game.

 

[Rico444]

He looks like a combination of Bagger Vance and Michael Jackson to me.

You are not serious or you?

Dude, I read lots of Chief. I know Chief. Chief is a friend of mine. @champs99and04 , you're no Chief.

Sometimes you need the occasional fire drill to keep things orderly.

I listened to K O on the radio and I think hes somewhere in the same vicinity of what he thinks of Vance Jackson. Hes multi skilled at 6-8 handle shoot pass rebound--at the end of the day--it will be intersting to see how many minutes he gets--Im thinking he becomes a VERY important player quickly.
