    He's no Royce White.








    And by that, I mean he shows up and actually plays.

    Thanks. Will rep later.

    Love having a PF who can rebound and take the ball all the way down the court. At 1:05, he gets the rebound, leads the fast break, and makes what would be an assist to Dwight.

    I definitely wouldn't be upset if we started the season with our PF rotation set as it is currently.

    He's a 3 stuck in the body of a 4. Shed 20lbs and everyone will think different. Kid has a great handle and awesome 1st step. Playing out of position imo...

    Not a good offensive game today, difference in a day. But T-Jones still brought rebounds and BLOCKED shots. Thats still a good kind of player, who can help out in other areas when the shot isn't falling.

    I don't think he needs to lose any body fat. Not if he's gonna play the 4.

    Yep, and that's why I wouldn't trade for Anderson. When teams start to play Howard one on one,which some do,and tilt to Harden,a guy like anderson turn into a non factor. On the other hand,jones can put the ball on the floor and get to the rim. He has as much talent as josh smith and lamar odom type. The rckets needs him to continue his arc and don't worry about trading for a guy. If they can get a better pg,I would though.

    Thank you, I've been wanting to see him and Donatas (Euro Tourney) over the Summer.

    I feel good about these two guys. It would be nice if those highlights had more of his non shooting plays too.

    He reminds me so much of Chris Bosh and Lamar Odom: lefty, inconsistent but respectable jump shot, great athleticism.

    This guy is going to be a load to keep off the offense glass and an excellent help defender on D.

    DM can be instant offense and a change of pace guy off the bench!

    SUPER EXCITED FOR NEXT YEAR!

    I'm really liking his feathery touch around the basket.

    He looks like a fit that we are looking for. And on a rookie contact... We should trade for him. Maybe Chase Budinger for him? Oh that already happened --> nice return on a second round pick that couldn't keep his playing time anymore.

    Jones > Budinger now and later

    IMO, We should just stay pat. --> If Asik doesn't become a problem (I don't think he will) --> We are set for a long play-off push.

    Thanks for the highlights! I'm liking what I'm seeing...a contribution in various areas. He's attacking, he's spotting up, he's taking contact and making cuts. He's definitely not afraid to take it to the hoop and seems to have pretty decent body control. Hoping for the best in him as the season progresses.

    He has some McHale & Parsons in him.

    So much potential & still young, if only we could trade Lin...


    ??????
    Harden
    Parsons
    Basketball Jones
    Howard

    Great starting 5 for years to come.

    It's summer league. The lanes won't be that wide open in the reg season games. Still he moves to the basket gracefully and deceptively quick, maybe because of his long strides that cover lots of ground.

    I wonder if GMs look for talent on other teams while they're here.
