    No but it would be an upgrade over Jones and possibly even over Harrell. Why not upgrade the team if you can?

    Jones is gone at the end of the year - if we don't trade him first. We sure as hell arent gonna pay him and quite frankly, the Clippers arent gonna have the money to pay him either... I'd rather bring back JSmoove, try to mend fences, and get a sweetheart deal for the next year or two (since he's still collecting detroit money...) than suffer through the highes and lows of TJones for the balance of the season...

    I'd rather have JSmoove than TJones... rebounding and alley-oops to D12, hardnosed player... Jones is probably a better longterm asset - but we're not gonna resign him anyway...

    I'm pretty sure most people realize that Josh Smith is an upgrade over Terrence Jones. He certainly was an upgrade over Jones in the playoffs just last year, and given how awful Jones has been for the majority of the season, I highly doubt that anything has changed.

    We are a Josh Smith away from being closer to the team we were last season, than what we are this season.

    That 2nd unit success was crucial to the Rockets, especially in the playoffs. The shot of energy it provided off the bench would push the 1st unit. This season, that 2nd unit is just blah.

    Actually everything he is as a player today isnt going to make us better. People need to stop living in the past.

    Last season is in truth, the past, but that phrase is being misused in this context.

    I mean this in the nicest way possible, but that is just really stupid. Technically things that happened 10 seconds ago are in the past, that doesn't mean that they aren't relevant. Jones has never been as good as Josh Smith. Ever. He isn't now, and he hasn't ever been in the past.

    You are probably the only person that would look at Jones as the better player of the 2.

    No its hilarious how some of you are impressed by a player who as been inefficient his whole career along with all the other problems he has. Yall make it seem like hes some star when hes far from it and has never been.

    I never said he was a star, I just said he was a lot better than Jones who is a scrub.
