Since being called up, he is 4-4 FG, 2-2 from 3, 10 pts. I know its a very small sample but looks like getting sent down to the D-League has helped him.

I know I live on fantasy island and I'm a 3 ft dude witha megaphone yelling "the fish, the fish "
Every time fisher is mention on here, but I think Thames will get drafted and have a solid career as a back up pg.
People notice Thames and Franklin not only have made the nba but have shown the ability to play at the level. This shows teams that fish not only gets nba players from the high school lvl but also cultivates, teaches and shows players how to handle and thrive in the nba.

Like for Kawhi, the path to success is a process.

He was a second round draft pick and he's doing what most second round draft picks do, take time to develop.

Wherever he end up will be the result of pure determination. |

The video is all you need to know why Jamaal isn't cracking an NBA lineup....
He plays for fun, not a business. Businessman have to do the things nobody wants, but everyone expects.
This is not a knock. It's just who he is. A great player that needs a slight shift in mindset to make it work in the NBA.
Kawhi has the mindset.
X should have the mindset, but we'll see.

When you're in the D league you have to do things that will get you attention. You see CP3 throwing passes off the backboard to Blake Griffin all the time, you can't argue that those guys don't have a "businessman" approach. |

He's not the smartest player ever to take the court, but I thought he'd go high teens/low 20s on talent alone. He broke his foot at Impact camp a month or so before the NBA combine, which not only kept him from attending the combine, but severely hampered his ability to work out for individual teams. Consequently, not only did this hurt his draft stock (as you mentioned, he was a mid-1st round pick on just about every board), but it surely impacted his development curve as well. That being said, Maal's got the skills. Maal's got the motor. Maal's got the drive. My money's on NBA JAMaal all the way. |

Not just a pass off the backboard to himself but a no-look pass off the backboard to himself. "That was all well and good but, let's be honest, you are still down 20 points". What? Did he expect a 20 point play from someone? Stupid comment by the announcer. You play the game whether you are down 20 or not. |

He "looked off" the defender to score the basket.

He has the drive, the work ethic, and the physical skills to be a player. His team traditionally plays it's main guys a ton of minutes with a short bench. Newbs and rookies don't get a whole lot of playing time which impacts player developement.
