    Something else has to be going on.....he doesnt get time in blow outs or desperate situations, but remains active over Goudelock?

    Doesnt make any sense..and no, it's not a JB thing...Not when he doesnt even get garbage time.

    Could there be some strange deal with his agent going on?

    Watkins said he's been healthy..

    I was hoping we would move him to the backup SF spot this year. He would be more useful the Brewer.

    IN the third he should have gotten some minutes
    We could have used the height.

    What has Goudelock provided for us? I could see playing him as a backup pg but I mean the dude is clearly trash.

    It is strange. Not even getting garbage minutes. We know that Jones had a bad year, but he did have the occasional good game. Brewer hasn't had a good game in a month, but he still gets minutes.

    Furthermore, JBB has used the strangest lineups and rotations in NBA history, that has included every other healthy player on the team. But, Jones hasn't had any minutes at all. Weird.

    Earlier in the season, someone mentioned there was more to that car accident he had earlier in the season. i'll guess it has to do with that.

    Serious question - Who's worse, Brewer or Jones?

    Beasley Has Made Jones Obsolete.

    I don't know what you're trying to say, i just know that there's no chance we're going to have a portion of cap space occupied by him -> if we want to sign two max players.

    My guess is Morey will try to move him (and other guys) during the draft.

    As poor as Beasley is on defense...He is light years ahead of Jones as a basketball player. Period.

    That would of been a nice match up. Livington vs "The Street Sweeper"

    Crazy how much worse he is compared to early last season and the season before. Massive regression beginning at the end of last season.

    He's getting younger. Pretty soon...he'll be a big baby out there. Wait...he already is I guess. He's taking a time out from the entire game of basketball. And, he's being paid lots of money. Lucky guy.

    So what, you don't even bother checking if he can help you win a quarter here and there? Seems rather odd..id understand being done with a player like Royce White or someone who was having meltdowns, aka conduct detrimental to team, but thats clearly not the case, if they're allowing him on the bench.
