Blake Griffin has some sick handles for a PF. If you can keep the ball away from a guy like Lawson that is pretty good. Obviously Lebron has pretty good handles. He isn't super fancy, but he is really good about protecting the ball. That was a real good move by Tjones.
It was a really nice move, but Tyreke Evans handles are on another level compared to T-Jones. [youtube]2ppZMJebNeU[/youtube]
Well....Tyereke evans is a guard...what do you expect?!?!?! 99% of the guards in the NBA have handles better than the PFs.
A "finished product" TJones is probably some version of Paul Millsap, a versatile player who can work both inside and outside with some degree of skill. Jones needs to get smarter defensively and become a better shooter to get to that next level, though.

Wow, so up in arms about Tyreke comparisons. I guess my comment wasn't interpreted well. I never called TJ our missing PG. The reason I drew that comparison is because he's a bigger body with PG experiences and simply shows flashes of it- nothing more.
I wouldn't say up in arms. I just don't see the comparison. Jones might have been a PG at one point in his life, but his handles aren't even on the level of an average shooting guard, where Evans has exceptional handles comparable to the best in the game. Evans problem is his lack of an outside shot: http://grantland.com/the-triangle/courtvision-the-worst-shooters-so-far-2/ Jones has above average handles for a power forward, but he isn't elite there. Here is another compilation of Tyreke Evans highlights to compare Jones with though: [youtube]LZBFZH1vP7M[/youtube]
But is it better than yao ming behind the back? <iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/hvvAMDrMcO0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
