Give the Kid (McGee) a break!

First and formost he is a Wizard!!!  I would hope you would want him to develop in time.

It is not his fault, EG drafted him, rip him if you don't like the pick.  This pretty much sums it up in what Wizards got with McGee

From ESPN Summer League site;

DraftExpress President Jonathan Givony

DraftExpress president Jonathan Givony has joined me courtside to give his thoughts on the first half of Wizards vs. Blazers.

TrueHoop: Washington's JaVale McGee didn't look good at all out there. What did you notice?

DraftExpress: No surprise here whatsoever. This is how he looked in college often. The Wizards would be the first ones to tell you that he is two or three years away. Still, you can't ignore his physical tools. The guy is a freak, look at his arms and athleticism. He just needs to learn how to play.

 

So, no he is not going to score 18 points or play defense like BH.  He is just going to learn how to play the game for the next few years, pretty much like BulletProof has done. He was not drafted for immediate impact.

This represents the view of the user who wrote the FanPost, and not the entire Bullets Forever community. We're a place of many opinions, not just one.

I feel ya.....

And I think most understand the kid’s position….so in this Bullets Fan community, we can share our continued observations on McGee’s game, progress, and development.

JaVale is raw mentally and physically…..but if we observe and start to see improvement in his knowledge of space and positioning in the NBA game, especially on D, before we see strides in his physique, then we know the potential for this project to succeed increases.
