I think more Vincent Askew than Tyreke.
That’s good. A little Cedric and CDR, too. He’s got cdr-esqu body control.
Why not throw in DRose and he can go pro after this season and win Rookie of the year, NBA MVP, First team all NBA, first rookie to ever record 20/5/5 and play at least 10 years in the league and wear an NBA Championship ring?
That’s SOME of what the guys have done that you are comparing him (with DRose) to yet after his 12th game, he is averaging 6 ppg, 3 reb and 2 assists.

DRose? Good idear. Jones is a superb passer--probably better than DRose at this stage of the game.

Well lookey what the cat drug up. Nobody compared AJ with DRose but Sooters if you cant see the comparison to Tyreke you are blind, deaf and dumb..ah nevermind, we already know that.

I actually think Jones might be a better passer than Rose was-- at this point. Or at least as good.
The comparison kind of falls apart after that, but Jones will be with us longer than a year...it will be fun to watch him develop.

Seriously...Antwaan reminds me of a poor man version of Russell Westbrook. Aggressive, can see the full court, can rebound and attack the basket but has that same volatile emotion like Westbrook on the court

Jones is good and will improve but he is still a freshman

What I don’t understand is why we have a poster saying negative stuff and being overly critical about his game. Why is it necessary to be critical of the kid? He’s very talented. It seems to me that Antwann being very talented is enough. So, Why can’t people just enjoy watching him play?

Yep. The question of the ages, Joe1.

I said this to my son. Of course, he said "who?"
