    he looks great on paper, and i liked him when we was here. i wasn't sure he'd be available at the minimum.

    maybe we'll actually use the pick and roll some?

    I want to say the Hawks ran the most pick in roll in the league last year.

    And who was their offensive coordinator? Chris Jent.

    yeah, but it doesn't jibe with ham's philosophy of ball and player movement. obviously, personnel have to play some role, though.

    There is something's that Ham and Jent do that line up perfect schematically.

    I do think Jones will be utilized and hopefully a lot.

    Really looking forward to having this guy back, he’s the lob threat we had zero of last season.
    Hustle guy, shot blocker, elevates effortlessly

    I didn’t know he has developed a three ball. That’s icing on the cake.

    "Maximize spacing for Russell Westbrook" yuck. Dude is settling for jumpers instead of going to the rim for dunk after dunk. f*** him and his "needs".

    It’s weird to see, but yeah he can make some. I’ve been watching highlights, I love his game, dunks everything he can, goes after boards, looks to protect the rim.

    We should have kept him over getting Drummond. Marc, Jones and Trez center rotation.

    You would never think he played here only 8 games after watching that highlight. Should've never let him leave.
