    It's so funny how even in his highlights when he's making shots, he is such a poor decision maker lol

    A little light on the three point shooting.

    I don't think he'll get more than garbage minutes, so it doesn't really matter.

    More than 3pt shooting, he has the potential to somehow be even worse than Faried on switches.

    It’s kind of crazy that he was starting 4 years ago and now at 27, presumably more skilled, he is a resurrected NBA player.

    I hope we’re up 20 with 4 mins left in the 4th so he comes in

    who can dominate a league of players mostly 5 years younger and no NBA experience.

    These 10 days will go quick.

    Jones is shooting .379 from three this season in the G. This explains why all of the shot fakes from behind the 3 point line were bit on hard by the opponent's D. MDA will want Jones to shoot and not fake. Let's see if Jones can adapt.

    Not crazy about the fit but may as well let TJ go bulldozer mode in 4th to finish out games.

    The biggest knock on him when he was here was his low Bball IQ especially on Defense, he couldn't rotate that well.

    You can't really rely on low bball IQ guys in the playoffs consistently.

    If he has become more intelligent meanwhile, then no problem.

    We’ve moved onto the “Why? factor”. Next will be the “No factor”.

    I don’t know about you, but that picture makes me think of the weird eye monster from Pan’s Labrynth!

    He was very immature when he was here, but a lot of that was having Dwight and McHale around.

    I think he will play well off the bench with CP3 & Harden and most of all Mike D’Antoni.

    All we need now is Danuel House.

    CP3/Rivers
    Harden/Gordon
    House/Shumpert
    Tucker/Jones
    Clint/Faried/Nene

    Let’s roll...

    Unfortunately we have to wait until like April to do that without going into the LT .

    Jones can sign another 10 day and then we give him vet min the rest of the year . After that then we can convert House .

    But of course we won't have any of those guys under contract next year .

    True. On the biggest stages, where the D keys on players, where focus, poise are asked of players. He has problems with it.

    He moves awkwardly, like Antoine Walker but in slowmo.
