Who is the 5th best player on this current roster?

I believe that it is customary in multiple choice tests to provide a "none of the above" option.

 

Jones had some monster games last year and has only gotten better since he's come into the league. One bad preseason shouldn't deter you from thinking that trend will continue.

 

Jones averaged 12 pts and 7 rebs playing alongside Dwight, Harden, Parsons, and Bev/Lin. I think he can average 15 and 8 this season

 

apparently preseason defines T Jones right now to some here

 

until proven otherwise on the nba court, and not with advanced stats or nba2k, how could it not be jones?

 

I have a feeling Kostas will end up being our 4th best player this year. Dude is just at the perfect spot on the floor on defense, and can drive and create on offense. If he could shoot, watch out. But he can't....yet

 

Too early to say Holic,. We should have a better ideal after 20+games.

 

Jones has actually contributed in NBA games, which is more than any of the others can say, except for 37 year old Terry.

 

terrence today, possibly kostas by march. 3 people voted for canaan??

 

Probably TJones, which is kinda sad now that I think about it. Our bench blows. Shouldn't have gotten rid of Lin/Asik without a guarantee of signing Bosh

 

Dmo or jones

jones better offensively, dmo better defensively

 

Outside of our top 4 guys, this team is incredibly thin. A team like this cannot compete during a long grueling NBA season. Having Harden and Howard play heavy minutes to keep this team in the playoff run will only wear them out by the time playoffs come.

I know Morey is set on finding that 3rd star but he needs to understand this team lacks depth. We have one of the best one-two punch in the NBA in Howard and Harden. But outside that, we don't have much. The Rockets don't have anyone that can come off the bench and provide any type of spark except for Jason Terry who is about to retire soon. Kostas is still unproven and need about another year or two to get things together. Our PFs are too inconsistent and we don't even have a legit backup PG.

I know Morey is trying to improve this team and he's doing it the smart way. But he needs to find better role players also. He's not going to make any big signings until he get that 3rd star and I really hope it won't be too late. Howard only got like 5 good years left and we can't afford wasting another couple of years waiting for Morey to find that player and also finding a good assistant for McHale or finding a replacement coach. Because the Rockets can never win a championship with Mchale as their headcoach.

 

I saw the choices and puked a little in my mouth

 

T jones is so horrible lol

 

Tjones is the epitome of inconsistent. He has looked terrible and full of potential in the first half.

 

Jones - the all stats no star .

 

Jones is the epitome of motor problem but the guy has potential to be the 3rd best player

we aint talking about 5th best player anyway

 

Motor problem? Most of his offense comes from tip ins on offensive glass or cuts or transition. Not exactly lazy jumpers.

He is a dumbass on d at times, and forgets to box out, but is not lazy.

 

Well so far it's definitely Jones.

 

He could drive more, using his strength and quickness depending matchups, work on his game, work on his shooting mechanics.

I am impressed by his Shotblocking, Rebounding and other parts of his game.

You cannot switch off his immaturity or below average BBIQ but he has a lot of upside. No wonder Davis and Jones were a terror in college.
