Jimmer in the NBA
It looks like he'll stick around. Jimmer definitely struggles defensively, but when he can consistently hit deep shots, and has a quick trigger to go with it, with good handles and passing, he'll be a commodity for most NBA teams.
"[Perkins] didn't try to take a charge. Wilt Chamberlain in his prime would have had an impossible task in keeping Blake Griffin's fingertips from the rim in that situation, but Perkins tried. He didn't wrap Griffin in a bear hug, and he didn't stand with his arms folded like a soccer player watching somebody attempt a free kick. He moved to the spot and attempted to at least prevent Griffin from scoring -- y'know, the point of actual defense? -- and nearly succeeded."
I'm a recent graduate from BYU-Idaho with a degree in Communications with a print journalism emphasis. I currently work as a writer/editor for a magazine publishing company, and hope one day to move to a warmer climate, which would require me to change the name of my blog, I suppose.
I've been married for five years and have two kids.
