So Long, James Jones

[westsidebob]

Looked at Twitter and "James Jones" was trending.....

Thankfully, it's bunch of folks freaking out because a Packers WR is wearing a hoodie under his uniform.

Carry on.

Wonder if he can be our shooting coach or work for us in some capacity

I recorded jones taking shots tonight during warmups. The dude is just wet. Everything is "new age textbook" as far as I'm concerned. Hop, or step into rhythm shot with a good ball dip, one motion shot through his right eye (not catapulting the ball from behind his head), high release with that high arching soft shot. He turns in mid air so that he finishes with right elbow and shoulder aligned with the basket. That mid air turn also gives you extra torque (like a golf swing, or throwing a boxing hook). He jumps slightly forward with his shoulders slightly arched back. The guy just lobs water grenades out there.

One of the few things missing from Cavs Hawks G2 was JJ joining the three-ball party and hitting at least one.

Congratulations to King James on his 6th straight finals appearance!

A lottery team 3 years ago. Then go to two straight Finals. I don't think any other player in the history of the league could do that. Sorry.

Amazing how James Jones is also going to his 6th straight championship who is off the bench.

Are we not going to talk about how this bum LeBron James can't win without this basketball god James Jones?

Sweet. So who's left:

- JR
- LeBron
- Felder (or is he locked in to generic rookie deal? Has to make team first?)
- 15th Man? (DJones? Sanders? etc)

Waste of a roster spot. Join the damn coaching staff already.

 

[Andrew]

still getting them checks!

 

[flop]

Mentor/Lebron's buddy check.

My initial thought too, but I think this just means there are no other moves to make, otherwise we would have explored them, given the idea to LeBron, and hear his final say.

Mike Miller got pushed out last year, just didn't see anyone available this year
