For those of you who don't like Jimmer...

No BYU players are looking at Jimmer in the photo. It's fake!

Yes they are, at least one is wide open right by the basket and begging for Jimmer to pass it to him. You can see Jimmer giving him the finger if you look real close.

What I think is awesome about that picture is the 40 inch vertical he has just to shoot a standard jumpshot. Most NBA players can't jump that high in a dunk contest.

Not fake, the shot is about a minute and seven seconds in on this video. Must be the angle the photographer was at or something.

I don't understand why people would say he can't dribble or pass.

I mean, honestly, does anyone think there's something Jameer Nelson can do that Fredette can't ?

If Utah spent a lottery pick on Jimmer and he turned out to be no better than Jameer Nelson, I wouldn't be too happy.

Then you're insane.

If we end up with a player like Jameer in the 10-15 range then I'll gladly buy you a beer and wear Utah Red.

Guys, I know we all would love to get Lebron. But the truth of the matter is, most of the players that will most likely be available when we pick are going to be career bench warmers or border all-stars. Unless we end up with a top 5 pick, we're probably not going to end up with Lebron.

With Harris's injury proneness, I'd be more than happy if we ended up with a solid PG with our 2nd pick as long as the first is used to shore up our wings.

Everyone who views this picture wants to be like Jimmer. Everyone.

Where's Jimmer's other arm?

Jameer Nelson was the 20th overall pick.

Hmmmm.

It's funny how so many NCAA schools passed on Jimmer despite his glossy high school stats. "He plays in a small school district. Those kind of numbers mean nothing against inferior competition." Jimmer has proved many a college silly for passing on him.

Now the NBA is on the clock. What will they do?

The difference I see between players such as Reddick and Jimmer is that Reddick was part of a good Duke team. Reddick was their specialist but they had other great players to compliment him. Duke would have still been better than average without JJ. BYU without Jimmer this year is, well, no better than the Utes. Jimmer is the Cougs.

I wonder if you were to swap Jimmer with Reddick on this year's BYU team if BYU would be as equally as good?

Very true.

We're gonna see a sick talent help pull this win out tonight and make an even bigger name for himself.

Chandler Parsons. Kid's sick good.

I'm pretty sure he's touching the ceiling with his off-hand. You can't see it because it's behind the P.
