Terrence Jones will never be a star. His ceiling is not that high and he got owned on defense by most of the better PF's. Bottom line he's undersized.

That said, I think he could work in this offense as a starter where he won't be expected to do too much as PF except space the floor, get offensive boards, and pass to Dwight. DMO actually has a higher ceiling, and is the better overall player, and so I think Jones should start and DMo come off the bench where he can be more of a go-to guy. So far Jones has shown that he doesn't want to be the go-to guy. On offense he literally hides--he doesn't want to take shots. Hopefully this year both Jones and DMo will get over their freshman jitters.

Neither player ceiling is higher than the other right now. Both have their individual strengths. But Jones have a lil more, because he can rebound and block shots better. Dmo has better low post moves and can shoot the outside shot a lil better.
Both players got abuse by better PF last season as well. "Welcome to the NBA Rookies".

Regardless if you are a Dmo fan, TJones took that spot at the end last season.
Dmo has to prove himself

I would guess for now Dmo is backup.

If we keep Asik, both player will come off the bench.
