    Heh, he has a good game against a rookie in his first ever start in the NBA and the knees start jerking.

    Sometimes it's the trades that don't happen.

    One game, but very encouraging.

    Lamarcus, the guy who dropped like 90 points on Jones in two games?

    If you can score 15 points and hold a rookie making their first ever NBA start to 11 then you can obviously destroy LMA

    Now you'd have to be a nobrainer to trade him!

    I don't care if it was against you Bobbythegreat the man went work. Rookies suppose to get abused out there. Dang man why can't some of you people give credit.

    And last season Jones was playing solid like this more often than none.

    OP I wouldn't call him an all star but he is a solid roll player.

    I do give him credit, he had a very solid game but I think it's relevant to note that he was playing against a guy that went into tonight with 33 total minutes in his NBA career and came out of tonight with his first ever start and a double double.

    I honestly hope he keeps it up and plays this well against everyone he matches up against, but that's still yet to be seen.

    There is nothing like a good tradition, and the GARM melting over a loss is one of the best out there!

    Last season he played like this against Duncan and Splitter. He also had good games against Anthony Davis and several other players.
    My thing is he did what he suppose to do. Go to work on a Rookie
