Anybody heard anything about Terrence Jones? It might just be within NBA executive circles it's not expected that a skilled 6'-10" forward who just won a national title will fall to the 20s. Regardless if we're looking at Leonard, Sullinger, Zeller etc. who I think will all go higher I'm surprised at the lack of talk surrounding Jones coming to us.


Draft: 8 first rounders in next 5 years.

Cap space: $24 mil.

I'll take him. Has a decent jumper, good athlete, and plays good D. He could be a nice young guy to have. I think if we get Jeff Green back it looks like he wouldn't have a spot on this team.

It doesn't matter what position we draft, we take the best player available.  Even if we have 10 forwards we're not drafting rookies mid to late first round to be part of a championship rotation.  We're developing them for when the big 3 retire.

Agree 100% with Potapenko.....re Antoine comparison...he's a little taller too and faster

one word. No

The guy is from a world class program and was part of two championships yet keeps dropping in the draft rankings. There are reasons for this. One is that he is an ultimate tweener. Like a Josh Smith, but worse has some character issues.

don`t think experience nor maturity can help this. I would stay away

I'd take him but I wouldn't trade up for him. With the constant love affair around here on Josh smith I'm suprised more people don't like him..he's like a poor mans Josh smith right now
