    If the facial expression of T-Jones on one frame is the biggest problem on Clutchfans, that's a good sign.

    This is a perfect example of fans being impatient. Basically giving up on a 22 year old player or being shocked he wouldn't be around in one year in his first or second year in the league is ridiculous.

    I haven't given up on Jones....... however, I DO believe that he will be included in a trade for a BETTER player. Why would the Rockets include Jones? Because he is a valuable young player and other teams will want him.

    If I don't think that Asik will be a Rocket after next years trade deadline, does that mean I am "impatient" or am giving up on him?

    Asik is our best defender on LMA, unfortunately he doesn't look like in game shape or interest in the game. If he's back to his old self, you will see Howard/Asik/Parsons/Haren/Beverley or Lin lineup. TJones defense still need lot of work. If not you will see Howard/Parsons/Haren/Lin/Beverley lineup where Haren will be guarding LMA on the post but he can just shoot over Haren 16-18 foot away from the basket.

    Asik is our best defender against all the qualify PFs we will face in the playoffs.

    The combination of Asik and Harden taking the majority of the minutes at the 4 could win us a ring this year.

    Jones wants to be in the game in these situations. He is a competitor! I'm sure he was disappointed when McHale went small ball and he didn't get to see any floor time in the 4th quarter but hopefully this makes him play angry the next game.

    Clearly Jones just saw a hobo. He mad because he couldn't go stomp it.

    Snapshot - he's probably cheering or smiling a second after this was taken.

    That is his game face as another poster said. He is clearly thinking what went wrong and about his mistakes.

    Even when he is smiling his eyes are terrifying. Nothing wrong with that. Serious dude. Comical voice. Good character role player.

    He also gets very angry and screams after he dunks. Maybe because he didn't successfully tear down the backboard like he planned to?

    to be honest he is a team player, but when he gets the ball and begins his drive, dont expect him to pass it.

    Tsk...that's just the "THERE WE GO!" look. It's the angry but pumped up look that usually comes after success despite a frustrating night.
