Draft Him! To have a shooter like that off the bench would be invaluable

He would have to play point so that means they would have to get rid of Maynor. He is too small to play shooting guard.

dude is a straight baller. however i'm not sure how well his game would translate to the NBA, white guy shooting guard trapped in a point guards body. who knows though?

I watched him play in the NCAA Tournament last year. Jacob Pullen absolutely ate his lunch. I'm not impressed with him at all as an NBA prospect.

Not really.If he truly a great shooter he can come off the bench and be effective much like Brent Price,Steve Kerr and others. As a starter yeah,he is too smal but as a shooter,heis big enough. Personally I think the Thunder needs a big more than a shooter.

I really don't think he would see the floor if he came here.

More athletic than JJ Redick and he is having a pretty good career so far, smaller though

Durant and Harden, who else can shoot on this team?

Monta Ellis makes do. (6'3 180)

Now, Jimmer certainly doesn't appear to have the quickness nor the explosiveness of Ellis, but I think he can be a very good player off the bench to provide offensive spark for a team. I think he can be a hybrid PG/SG in this league, kind of like Steph Curry. I'm hesitant to compare him to Curry, but I do think it's a pretty good one.

and again, keep in mind that the Thunder only need a defensive enforcer down low which hopefully will be Aldrich and they need a legit shooter

Monte Ellis is a hybrid. And Golden State is a terrible defensive team because they play two hybrid guards at the same time. He would be a good situational player for us but you can't play him 15 minutes a game unless he is at PG where we are stacked. I think he can be a real solid player as a PG and a situational player, just not for the Thunder.
