I love Jeremy as a point forward and genuinely think he can become a lead playmaker. Asking him to do so full-time this year may just be a bit too much for him this early though. He is a smooth passer but he would need to spend a LOT of this offseason ironing out his handle to make sure he is capable of bringing the ball up effectively without assistance and getting the team into plays quickly.
When teams knew he was going to be the primary ball handler they effectively trapped and pressured him into picking up his dribble and gumming up the offensive flow. Him as a point forward/point guard worked best when the Spurs whipped it out mid game and threw teams off and caused sudden mismatch issues.
Now with that said I do think he can still do it full time but it could involve some seriouse growing pains if he is the starter at the one day one.
