Lol your getting way too defensive right now. JJ swaggerless? Please, did you ever watch him play in college in your life? Shut up road crowds in a hurry. JJ probably has more swagger than John Wall too. It's not swagger when you dance for 40 minutes in warmups.

And I didn't say he was a ballhog. Maybe chucker is the wrong word, but Jrue will never be an elite PG. Nor will Wall or Jennings.
That was college this is the nba.

JJ is so swagged up...these clips just prove it

Jrue may never be elite..but I'd bet he has a better Career than JJ

I think Jrue will be a Russell Westbrook sort of player. Near triple doubles all the time.
Don't compare Jrue with Russell Westbrook dude. He's Jameer Nelson at best.

I don't think any of them are really undisciplined chuckers. None of them have been in the league more then 2 years. John Wall is the fastest PG in the league imo and if you expect them to be best pgs in the league in their first 2 years you mine as well just leave them alone.
Chucker might have been the wrong word - except for BJ. Wall and Jrue I just don't think have what it takes to be elite PGs.

Swagger is forever, TYO. You should know that.

Took more heat than Wall has ever seen in his life at Duke. Wall just dances around like a <Censored> who hasn't earned anything in the league yet. Gotta earn your stripes.

BJ isn't a chucker. Dude just has to play the role he's given with the Bucks. He's kinda required to shoot. Same with Wall, and even Jrue. True that none are elite but Wall will be and I could see BJ and Jrue has potential

How is B.J. not a chucker? He doesn't need to, do you realize how many options the Bucks have? That's just his game style. He sucked in Europe because he couldn't play team basketball, he needs the ball in his hands to be good and he just chucks when he gets it. Was Gilbert Arenas not a chucker either?

Blair with another double double in this game. It pays not having ACLs.

Dude he was coming out of hs. What do you expect? Dude was 18 playing and different style of ball on a different side of the planet. BJ can get dimes all day given the right players around him. The bucks WANT him to shoot. It's not like dude doesn't pass the ball

I don't think I've seen any PG in this league that can legit shut down John Wall. Dude has the makings of an elite PG. He's 6'4 and faster then almost every player in the league. What more could you ask for? Only thing he really lacks is shooting but these days most PG's don't have that anyway

People came out of HS and had success in the NBA, it's just that his game didn't fit with euro-ball. He's not a team basketball player.

I know Wall is fast, you only have to watch him play for 2 minutes to know that. I'm just not a fan of his game. He's not a good shooter, he turns the ball over a lot, I just wouldn't build my team around him. Plenty of PGs in the league I'd take over him.
