 Thanks for the video! I’m kind of surprised that GSW wasn’t impressed by him. He seems to be shooting lights out

 His shot seems so smooth. I really like Jones, and don’t see how he can’t have a Thadeus Young type of role for a team. He measured out great at the combine with a legit 6’9 250 lb frame. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if he gets drafted in the late lottery. He is a decent stretch 4 who could also play big at times.

His shot release looked real slow when he was shooting 3s… Maybe it was just the lax workout, but he may have to speed that up a bit, as well as not pause with the ball.  I didn’t like how he brought the ball down in stead of keep it chest high and shoot.

Still, I don’t believe T. Jones’ jumpshot will be earning him his paycheck if he makes it.  If Jones can have a controlled agression on the court and stay in check with his emotions, I don’t see why he can’t be a 13/6 playoff off the bench early in his career.

I agree with the previous poster who talked about Jones being a stetch 4, i think he could be a matchup monster offensively off the bench playing in a small, or big lineup.

Terrance is one my favorite players in the draft.  Imo, he’ll be a better pro than college player.   This draft is the most exciting since 2003 imo; with regards to the star factor, as well as the excitement and mystery of every draft pick being unknown outside of #1.  The thought of a playoff team picking up T. Jones or Perry Jones in the middle of the 1st round is crazy!  I don’t believe either of them fall out of lottery though.

 

I’ll say this though, there WILL be at least one bust in the top 7.  Imo there will be a couple teams who reap major benefits this draft, while another team or two will set its franchise back a half decade of management/ roster/ coaching change.  My guess is Drummond and Barnes don’t work out as planned in the top 7.

 "Still, I don’t believe T. Jones’ jumpshot will be earning him his paycheck if he makes it."

this is true.  he has an awkwardness about his release that makes it slow and inconsistent.  still….his jumpshot isnt bad and will help him in the right situations, but he needs time to shoot it and cant be rushed or he bricks alot off the back of the rim.

the biggest thing about him is his lateral movement and quickness to me….and the fact that his right hand is weak as hell.  watch him close, I dont know if he can even make a right handed layup.  

His strengths outweigh his weaknesses though and I like him as a prospect.  I think he has good IQ, can pass the ball, and the biggest thing….he is a MAN.  Those doubting he is a PF will be sadly mistaken.

 Some of these "scouts" are obese..

He’s actually bigger than Thomas Robinson.  He played a lot of center defensively for Kentucky.

I think he’s a legit PF starter in this league, maybe after some adjustment to the tougher inside play.
