Patience has its limits, and it's clear that Josh-Jackson has wasted the last chance to prove himself.
Unlike Jabari Parker, who suffered a serious injury just after playing at the top;
Also different from Jalil Okafor, who has encountered a change of times when he first entered the league;
Although Josh Jackson can not be said to be born with a golden key, but also occupies the right time and place, no one doubts his future in the NBA, even if he does not qualify for the top three, it can not hide the light of Jackson, however, it is such a guy who can become a star in people's mouths, and now he is on the verge of his career...
First of all, Jackson's talent, he has a height of 2.03 meters, an arm span of 2.08 meters, fast speed, strong explosiveness, excellent athleticism, defensive end, collar defense, truncation, frame protection are also proficient, almost all draft websites, regard him as the 17th champion hot;
Speaking of this era, look at the winners of the past few FMVP, Iguodala, James, Leonard, Durant, Alphabet Brother, all are all the same forward players, and they are all all offensive and defensive all-round types, it is clear that this type of player is the future of the league, and it needs to be explained that Jackson's draft template is just Iguodala/Leonard;
Finally, talking about the Suns, before breaking into the Finals last year, you can say that the Suns are a "bad team", they have not made the playoffs for many years, and wasted a lot of time in the draft, but as a team that has cultivated Booker, Ayton, bridges, they may just have a poor vision, for Jackson, the Phoenix people have also placed high hopes on the latter, giving the latter a lot of opportunities, rookie season, Jackson's ball use rate is as high as 26%, the whole team is second only to Booker, the second season, there are also 23.6%, Ranked 3rd in the team.
But in the face of a large number of opportunities, Josh Jackson did not grasp it, his ball conversion rate is very low, the real shooting rate is less than 49% for two consecutive seasons, the assist rate of 12% is lower than many blue-collar interiors, as to why, then you have to ask Josh Jackson, he is almost all on the sidelines, and arguing with the fans.
Jackson is a player with full personality, stubborn, disobedient, and has no plans for the future, and it is also for this consideration that the team with the 1-3 signing will invariably choose to ignore him and see how many things he has caused in the past 2 years at the Suns:
In the third game of his career, Jackson was fined 35,000 by the league for making indecent gestures to fans, and his starting position was also stripped;
Since then, Jackson's troubles have been continuous, life is extravagant, and the emotional line is also very complicated, not only cheating, but also having a daughter;
Although Jackson vowed to start all over again after his rookie season, he cut off his long hair for this, but the result? At the beginning of the season, Jackson became the "Chaos Demon King" again.
Unexcused absence from the team's activities, so that the team's general manager Jones is embarrassed not to come to the stage, and can only make up for the loss from his own pocket;
Later, he was arrested by the police for fare evasion, and during the arrest, Jackson tried to resist, and finally was prosecuted for fare evasion and refusal to arrest;
The last lawsuit had just been resolved, and Jackson was caught up in the custody of his daughter;
Not only that, but he was also exposed to XD, but also in the family's baby room, and eventually led to the poisoning of his daughter, who was less than one year old;
Unable to bear it, the Sun could only choose to trade, briefly released, which made Jackson have a little remorse, he not only confessed in front of the camera, but also wrote a thousand words of repentance, but only a few months later, Jackson was photographed in and out of Phoenix's luxurious nightclub.
In the summer of 2020, jackson after the contract expired, only got an offer from his hometown team Pistons, and in the next 2 years, although he had some restraint, but back on the court, Jackson's performance was still unsatisfactory, his offense was still inefficient, the real shooting rate was only 49%, and the high-level data, The true plus-minus of the offense is -3.9, the true plus-minus of the defense is -0.4, the BPM -4.2, the VOPR -0.4, etc., are also at the bottom of the same position, and before the trade deadline, Jackson was sent to the Kings in a four-way trade.
When his hometown teams are reluctant to give another chance, Jackson's career is also coming to an end, in the Kings, he can only play the role of water dispenser guardian, only garbage time, can get a little chance to show his face, joined for more than a month, only played 6 games, played 18 minutes, and only got 0.7 points, 0.3 rebounds and 0.2 assists.
Patience is limited, talent is also shelf life, waste time at the same time, time is also overdrawing your future.
