    Man, I don't want Harden being a mentor to Jones. Jones has seemed to have a chip on his shoulder and a hungry player. I don't want Harden influence. Harden didn't do anything for Jones today, Jones hard work and drive why he had done well. Remember, Harden says you can't fix it.

    We need to dump you instead of Wall.

    The kid did say he was the best player in the draft.

    Jones is a Stone Mason
    He does not lay bricks

    He has the potential to be really good, his passing and vision is surprisingly good for a rookie.

    He needs to start every game Wall is out.

    Mason Jones is the black Pablo Prigioni.

    Slow as hell but somehow it works.

    He is like a SG Paul Pierce. He needs to stay living in the weight room. Get stronger and quicker young blood.

    That crouch he does to protect the ball from the defender reminds me of Pablo.

    If Mike D’Antoni was still here, Mason Jones would be the starting center.

    I like this kid. He has range beyond the NBA three, is crafty, can pass a bit, and can draw contact despite being slow as hell. Reminds me a bit of Denzel Valentine coming out of college although I certainly hope he has a better NBA career.

    I hope he is a Brandon Roy type.

    His bounce pass is amazing

    He has a natural feel for a gam, if he keeps working he can be really good

    Daryl Morey would've sent down Mason Jones to RGV then released.

    Rockets will have regrets later.

    Ben McLemore - Level 1
    Eric Gordon - Level 1 or Absent
    Sterling Brown - Level 2
    Mason Jones - Level 3 - Potential as a Near All Star
    Victor Oladipo - Level 4, if Healthy and has Speed
    James Harden - Level 5, When in Shape

    High time for someone named Mason to go off.

    Wonderful post!!
    btw I wonder what is up with nwaba?

    if he could just get his 3pt to work like he did in the past he would be awesome... i dont agree that hes bad offensively , perhaps true until the shot is fixed...how come hes not in the gym launching 2000 shots daily?
    Do rockets even have a shooting coach? How come Silas is not paying attention to it?
    THIS IS MIND BOGGLING

    please if D’Antoni was here, we wouldn’t be talking about Tate Nwaba or Jones.
