    Haa... He seemed surprised that someone in that place actually knew what was "supposedly wrong with him". I think he actually appreciated my comment about his foot. My friend and I were seated before Jones (first come first serve), and his group was standing next to the door. There was a pretty looking girl next to him as well. So when I approached him about the picture, and he turned away, the girl mouthed to me "no" and shook her head at me... as if she was trying to let me know that Jones was trying to be incognito.

    It didn't bother me until his bodyguard came into the picture.
    we were planning on getting the food to go, But decided to stay after seeing jones. To be honest, I was talking a lotta **** as i was eating my food. They were sitting right behind us so im sure they heard. Should have prolly just let it go, but the bodyguard annoyed me. sorry T.Jones.

    Who knows, maybe if I had some boobs he'd take a picture w me. ha...

    You sound kind of like a douchebag. No reason to sit there and talk ****. I have a feeling this could be revisionist history. After all, his body guard "for no reason" asked you to chill 3 times. Next time you see a team member at 4am you might want to chill.

    It's crazy to think, DMO/Dwight at the 5 and Jones/Smith at the 4? That's pretty damn good for a bench unit.

    Yeah, definitely, I'm hoping 2 weeks (might be optimistic but whatever)... I think end of December they said he was on treadmill and 4-5 weeks, just don't remember source... So hopefully a lot closer now. Probably taking time since don't need him right away.

    Hopefully enough time to get traded. I am more concerned right now with Capella's development. He is taller and has a decent J. Hiys loke Tjones are replaceable. He velongs on a team that wants to give him time to develop like Phoenix.

    Yeah, you're probably right. I think that'd be great, I mean with bench now, no reason to rush him. I just hope they actually play all 4 players at pf/c when he returns, and only use Dorsey when game is determined. I mean Dorsey does hustle, but he's not Howard/DMo /smith/Jones etc...

    I can see your point too, I'd love a pg, I just don't think phx is going to trade. Unless dragic won't commit and of 8th seed isn't reachable for them. phx, probably just wants to make the playoffs.

    I would trade jones for dragic everyday, but dont understand the whole 'he needs time' thing?? 13 and 8 as a starter last year is awesome for a 21 yr old.... just play the kid! If he can pick up even a half of Moties man on man D, then he is a pretty awesome player... and imagine if his offence further develops (as might be reasonable to expect)?

    I remember Jones used to be our First quarter scorer, and he did a damn good job at that. He used to make out 5 point leads into 15 point leads. I don't mind him staying nor leaving honestly.

    I will say beforre he got hurt this year his defense was looking ALOT better.

    Im sure it wasn't the bodyguard that made you complain like a lil biotch. Fans are dives as well, T wasn't obligated to do anything for you.

    I can see Jones getting some time at the 3 and 4 when he gets back. Sorry Pap... but Jones and Brewer make you expendable and the most likely player traded if an upgrade at theorist is available.
