    What is going on/happened to him?

    Did he lay around all summer and get out of shape/not work on his craft?

    Feeling too comfortable and content/lost his drive/immaturity/effort level not there?

    Personal drama going on in his life?

    Is he trying to play through an injury?

    He had alot of potential but damn he has looked to regress in every facet so far throughout this preseason, his effort level also does not seem to be there. Just abysmal all pre-season, really bums me out :(


    ^^^Aside from the save making D Wade look stupid- thats about the only decent thing I've seen from him.

    I could watch that save he made last night all day. What a play. Other than that pretty forgettable preseason for him.

    Jones has a game that looks like he's not really trying kind of like t-Mac did. I highly doubt he sat around all summer. Having said that he hasn't looked good at all in pre-season. He looks lost on the court

    I think the Rockets need to trade him in a package for an upgrade at the 4 or 1 spot.

    Terrance loves to ISO! and it is not an efficient offense.

    I'd wait til the actual regular season begins to pass any realistic judgement on his progression.

    He was never good to begin with, and he hasn't improved. Go after David West, Morey!

    That's exactly what you can expect from Jones, he'll be worthless for most of the game, but will make an athletic play or two that makes everyone put up with him and gives his supporters hope that he'll be more than that one day.

    Here is the issue: He practiced all summer, but never picked up a book. The dude is an air head.

    It's like his value goes down with every game because of the tag of "promising" thats been attached to him since he entered the NBA. Trade 'em while we can still get someone good.

    This will be his 3rd year in the league and 2nd as starter, at what point do you think it's fair to expect some improvement?
