Note: He got drafted by the Magic, Jameer can drive and kick to him and Howard is a player that in time will be commanding double teams.

Howard is not going to get constant double teams at all. Bosh doesn't even draw doubles and he's far more advanced offensively. Nelson is a good point guard, but he can't make up for a lack of athleticism. I don't even think JJ will be as good as Steve Kerr, both being similar players, because JJ's shot can falter. I saw him in the tourney in Atlanta, and he looked bad. You put a taller defender on him and you can easily throw off his shot, you put a quick defender on him and you'll make him force up bad shots. Put a guy like Iguodala (just that type of player, not necessarily him) and JJ doesn't have a prayer unless the game gets into a frenzied pace and defense is at a minimum. IMO there's not a chance he spends his career as a regular starter.
