If you guys watched him last season he was actually a lot smarter with the ball, BUT he still won't be a great player because all he can do is score.That's it.
J.R could be a great player.

He had the potential to be an all-star. At this point in time I'm not completely sure he can reach that level anymore.

Basically sums it up right there.
IMO he could be a Top 3 SG if he applied what JB23 said.

but yeah, if he had a brain he'd be dangerous.
He aint exactly come up on the ideal squad as far as development goes either.

This is just dumb. The guy is a fool who loves the highlight reel over the win. Cocky as hell. How can someone want this virus on their team. He will NEVER be"great" player.
Another thing I don't get. Just because this guy supposedly has "swagger", why does he get a pass for acting like a complete dumb#@$ If otherplayers made those types of reactions after normal jump-shots/dunks, they'd get ripped apart. But because this guy has a tattoo artist on call and the IQequivalent to his PPG, he's praised.
Someone explain this.

You don't have to convince me OP, I just wish the Bulls would have let him get off the plane. He has some issues, but he has enough talent to look past theshortcomings.

he annoyed me during the laker/denver series with that ******ed dance
Though aside from that, i always looked at him as a sympathetic figure so i always wanted for him to do well. He's got alot of talent.... just an idiot attimes. Like why does he jack up so many 3s when he's talented enough to take it to the rack? He had the tools to become another Kobe, Wade, T-Mac typeplayer... instead he chooses to become Ricky Davis 2.0 If he improves his work ethic and IQ maybe he'll at least be in the B-Roy level.

JR needs a better dribble with his left and some basketball IQ. but tell me another guy with as good a 1 foot jump as him off either leg.

He's got the tools he just has to use them properly...if he had a better coach hewould be further along(same for Melo)...Billups is picking up the slack though

After what I saw from dude in the playoffs he's already very good.
Dude was doing a whole a lot more than just jacking up threes from what I saw.

One of his main problems is consistency. He has shown just about everything, but he still has to put it together. That sums up his entire career thus far.

If you pay attention, almost every players on the Nuggets have some sort of attitude/ wanksta wannabe personality . JR is just a part of that teamidentity.
