OP is a moran.
Show me highlights of something other than shooting.
Which he sucked at for the year mind you.

This video makes me feel a little better about the pick.

You're obviously not a golfer.
He's near Babbit and Aminu on his pre-draft numbers with 30" no step and 34" max (Babbit is 29, 37, Aminu is 27, 33.5) He has ~ same speed as Aminu, Babbit is a tad faster in the lane. Aminu is has standing reach of 9'0 Haward has 8'7.
So Baby, you are right - with respect to his basic measurements. His rebounding is a bit lower than those two (8, 9, 10 for GH, LB, AA)
So with a little more data this guy isn't so crazy of pick:
1. Athetically closer than I thought to his peers
2. Has the proven history of being a winner, HS and taking his underdog Butler so far in NCAA - main guy, (unlike Davis, Patterson, Aldrich)
3. Has enough evidence to show he can be a shooter - freshman year + FT% (82%) which is a good indicator or overall hand-eye coordination. Shot 4 3pts per game sophmore year. If one per game is always his to take for last second crap shot as goto guy, that cuts your % down considerably with only few attempts. (Maybe this one game video pumped up his freshman year percentages...)
4. Assuming (haven't seen enough) his 'on-court awareness" and "BB IQ" attributes are good as advertised
Then he could be a player. Kevin Martin is a pretty good player and he doesn't have "all that." John Stockton didn't have "all that..." Stromile Swift had "all that" and wasn't. So there are possibilities here.

Did you even look at the stat sheet before making this comment?
7/11 from 3 and 8/15 overall
If CJ put up these shooting numbers, you would be giddy all night.

Awesome Archie. Too bad you'll get a warning for it if it's not removed. At least I would think.

My inside sources tell me the Jazz were undecided between Ed Davis and Gordon Hayward going into the evening, but after being sent this youtube video via Randy's gmail account they knew he was their guy.
