I started a post during free agency, asking Danny to sign Terrence Jones.  I still think he would have been a perfect small ball 4 to pair with Al Horford.  He can block shots and has the range out to the 3.  He signed with the Pelicans on an one year minimum contract.  Whenever he gets playing time, he stuffs the stats sheet.  Even in Houston, before his last year when he was injured and got out of the rotation, he was starting and played very well.. Anyone know why this guy isn't given more playing time or why he's not valued around the league as much?

Celtic killer.
I remember several times how he really plays well against us.

I agree, Jones is a much better option specially his rebounding than the corpse of Amir.

He's only 26% from 3 this year and 30% for his career. He's actually a lot better at the rim.

Could do a lot worse though. His numbers check out. I wouldnt be against it.

Always kind-of thought of him as the in-shape Sully. I guess injuries killed his opportunity at a decent contract.

Strange how guys like Jones and Sully garnered almost no interest from other teams, but we gladly signed Zeller for $8M and picked up Amir's $12M option. I guess it goes to show that attitude and cohesiveness mean a LOT.
