Can Pierre Jackson reach a ceiling similar to Isaiah Thomas from SAC?

i think the undersized PG is going to make a reemergence for sure. lil guys like nate and IT are tough and can slice and dice through the trees all day

If he's playing vs. other short PGs I love him. If he's playing against Russell Westbrook we fricked

Watch the highlights of Pierre. They play more defense in the NBA All Star game, I think. Most of those DLeaguers are terrible.


That said, I bet he gets a shot somewhere down the line this season. He seems to play with a lot of confidence.

They still need to figure out what to do with Rivers. And Roberts needs to be sent packing, he obviously isn't in future plans. Might as well let Rivers and Pierre get backup minutes and see what you have there.

He certainly looks like he has an NBA skill-set.

Very quick, good handles, smooth jumper with a quick-release, etc.

The question would obviously be, how would his defense fare against the physical guards the NBA has to offer...

IT's defense is pretty bad as well. I think Jackson has the capacity to be as talented a scorer as Thomas. It's going to take some time though. His carelessness with the ball is his downfall. I don't think he can protect the ball. Never shown it in college and the trend continues today.

I think his ceiling is a spark off the bench type of scorer.

Wow, his release is so quick. If he shoots a high percentage he'd definitely bring spacing at the very least.

If we could turn a 2nd round pick throw in into a solid scorer off the bench guy then I'd be thrilled. I think Jackson could be something like a hot or cold kid that isn't your true backup really, but you give him about 3 minutes and see if his shot is falling. If it is you ride with him, if not then you bench him.

Not exactly 3 minutes More like what Nate Robinson brings. He's not the true backup PG, Andre Miller really is. You just put Nate in and hope he gets hot and if he's ice cold he gets less minutes. Sorry for joking haha.
