Yahoo is reporting that Dahntay Jones has signed with the pacers for 4 yrs. and 11 Million. Personally, they can have him. Im glad Danny didnt overpay for this one

I was kinda hoping that was "Dwayne Jones"; the market's getting a little bereft of backup wings.

I think they would have been better off keeping Marquis Daniels.  I'm not enamored with Jones.

Agreed. Some teams are making decent low cost signings. The Bulls getting Pargo for 2 million was another good signing. No guarantee that Grant Hill outplays Pargo or Jones this coming year and no guarantee he stays healthy.

And the biggest no guarantee is no guarantee that Hill chooses Boston.

Does anyone else see Dahntay Jones as an older more physical version of Tony Allen? Supposed "lock down" defender with absolutly no jumper. But at least he's a great athlete....yea ok, those guys are a dime a dozen in the nba today

i see your point....but jones really seemed to be "putting it together" this year, which cant be said about tony...and jones was instrumental to the nuggets run, which got them to the conference finals

  • I left Indiana. Because it was horrible.
I'm just happy that it wasn't Damon Jones.  Seeing Dahntay isn't going to put me in a rush to renew my tickets though. 
CB Draft Bucks: Chris Paul, Dwight Howard, Tobias Harris, Zach LaVine, Aaron Afflalo, Jeff Green, Donatas Motiejunas, Jarrett Jack, Frank Kaminsky, Lance Stephenson, JaVale McGee, Shane Larkin, Nick Young

DKC Bucks. Also terrible.

Well, doesn't really make the Pacers much better, but it does make the Nuggets a little worse.

Just another wing option that we no longer have.

We really need to hope for Grant Hill.
