    No wonder coachbadlee doesn't want to trade for any stars. We're a team made up of stars already, according to him.

    LeBron James/Royce White
    Terrence Jones/Dwight Howard

    Just stop already...

    Actually, no, he isnt strong. He finishes strong, but he is not strong. Compare to RW and PP, his bench was half theirs, and his arms are small.

    nah. more like a lesser Dirk

    but at this rate, i wouldn't be surprised if D-Mo became the next Dirk.
    a lesser Pau is just insulting lol.

    Terrence showed great handles tonight. Made some good off the dribble moves. He is already shooting threes which is great. Played good defense as well. With time, he could come pretty damn close.

    Jones will never be Howard because that would put his ball handling skills to waste. What do you think his chances are of becoming a SF freak like LBJ or KD? I was hoping White would be that guy but seems White will never be able to transition out of the PF spot.

    I think Chris Webber was comparing Jones to Josh Smith during the first summer league game. How he has potential to play the role Josh Smith currently plays now. Jones was from Kentucky with Anthony Davis right? He mentioned it when talking about Kentucky.

    Yeah. He actually played center often at Kentucky. I just picture him improving on what he has now and becoming somewhat of a stretch 5 who could also attack the basket and finish despite contact. He is a pretty good rebounder as well.

    Well, there is a big difference between Jones and Howard. Jones is 6'10, a SF/PF while Howard is a Center. Howard is much stronger and bigger. Howard is much more explosive. Howard is a big diva that is desperate for media attention. Dwight Howard acts like a immature baby when he don't get what he wants. Jones is much more professional than Howard even though he's a rookie and Dwight has been in the league for 8 years. Dwight Howard is selfish and thinks the world revolves around him. Dwight probably thinks he is one of the best centers of all time but he isn't close at all. Jones is a man and Dwight is a big cry baby, whiny female stuck in a big power male's body.
