That is part of why (by the way) I'm one of those seemingly few who still like Jaric. I think having a guy who isn't a score-first player and who can bring the ball across midcourt or set up an offense is of value.
if jaric had a different attitude and bball iq then a small forward with his skill set would be great alongside scoring guards... unfortunately he just doesnt fit.

Mayo does seem to be a risk and a lot of people are low on him because of all the hype, and the attitude issues ("supposed attitude issues"), but i think he is THE player from this draft with the ability to become a franchise player
