    Everyone is hating on Jones, but they'll hate him more when he figures it out for another team and drops doubles nightly

    I just wanna keep Daniels. I love watching him shoot. Has one of the best looking jumpers in the league.

    Of the options, Jones is the only one who's proven a thing, so I'll say him. I'd be fine trading any of those guys though.

    Everyone one of them, I would trust daryold moreay to make this team better off with any trade. Even if it's harden/Howard it wouldn't be a move to put us back

    This poll never happened with Patrick Patterson's class....even with the cfnet confuscabatulusions promulgutated by the '09er infatuations ... go TWill!

    Yet, that was before we knew what darren morley was capable of.

    Jones..easily. He's the only proven player with the highest upside to make an impact. Good or average at just about everything for his position. His problem is consistency, questionable motor, and zoning out at times on offense and defense.

    Unfortunately, TJones is likely one of Dorell Muleray's biggest trade chip so he is probably a goner.

    I really like T Jones, But Daniels with the assistance of an elevator screen can be a real asset. I would hate to see Daniels leave and blossom somewhere else. You have to be a little special when Lebron James is recruiting you for his super team.

    I don't think Dorlan Morejunas will let Daniels go. Daniels will just take over when Terry is traded.

    He is already a serviceable role player... If he can explode, close the gap on his deficiencies he will be heck of a player... He is young enough to do so

    D-Mo would be my pick. You can see from his flashes that he can score in the post, play good position defence and just knows what to do. I can see him having a very nice career where he averages over 15 points a game. He is also very fundamentally sound which helps longevity. Not only that but his game doesn't rely on athleticism.

    Troy Daniels because as soon as he gets under a average nba coach that has any sense... this guy will drop at least 8-10 3's a game just by running around through screens and picks in a better offensive setup.

    Papa, but only because we haven't seen what Capela can do.

    Oh I bet...If he can close the gap and give the team about 5 or 6 more points a night, we'd be talking about WCF at minimum...not too worried if Jones is traded though because I trust that Playa del Rey Melrey.

    I agree with dmo and possibly nick johnson. I think once Nick J beefs up a bit he'll be great as a back up role. A 7 footer with a soft touch is just something you don't give away. He can play both 4 and the 5. 6'9 6'10 pf's are not very hard to find. One with legitimate height is not.

    Jones.


    after that is Capella.

    I'm fine with losing anyone else though.

    Interesting how Jones is mentioned multiple times but only has 2 votes

    Kostas Papanikolaou is going to be special. If you trade him, it better be to win a championship. There is an extremely short list of players I'd rather have and none of the names are from the 2014 draft. Wiggins for K. Pap... no thanks. I literally mean that.

    My vote goes to Daniels because we already learned once, with Robert Horry, that clutch shooting role players are not easy to find. Once you get your hands on one you do everything to keep him, so long as you're still paying him like a role player (and not a Chandler Parsons lol).
