NBA Experts agree with me. The Jazz should take Jimmer.

This might be the most logical pick in NBA draft history. In Jimmer Fredette, the Jazz are not only getting a playmaking face of the franchise/Deron Williams replacement, they are getting a local legend.
Some people say that Fredette’s game doesn’t translate to the NBA. He doesn’t have enough point guard in him, they will argue, and will get exposed defensively.
These people are not giving Fredette enough credit. So what if he gets exposed on defense sometimes? That hasn’t stopped Chris Paul and Derek Rose from being two of the best players in the NBA.
Also, he’s named Jimmer! How can you not get behind a baller named Jimmer?
The other arguments that are made against Fredette remind me the arguments that were made against Stephon Curry when he was at Davidson. In both cases, the players carried inferior teammates further than they rightfully should have gone. They were catalysts and playmakers in addition to being shooters. Just because they were forced to score more to keep their teams competitive doesn’t mean that they lack playmaking ability.
Obviously I’m a Jimmer supporter. For the Utah Jazz, he is a natural choice.
