He seems disengaged for long periods of time and then tries to force things and is not very efficient. We already have major inconsistency from the SF position and if we were to draft a SF I would want a guy who is more polished and will be the same guy for 48 minutes and every game. Thats why I like Dwilliams of all the SF.
At least that's what Kentucky men's basketball coach John Calipari learned on Tuesday night as he was caught on national television calling freshman swingman Terrence Jones a "selfish mother-(expletive)" during Kentucky's game against Alabama. Whoops!
Calipari had been hard on Jones as of late, benching him in UK's game against Auburn on January 11. The move may have been an attempt to motivate Jones, even though he was battling a chest cold at the time.
However, the one-sided shouting match on Tuesday night did not sit well with Kentucky fans.
The Wildcats fansite CatsPause.com has been all over the incident, with most posters stating their disgust for Coach Calipari's language, calling it "ugly," "embarrassing" and "uncalled for."
after that one sided shouting match by calipari to jones during the game, jones number drops. at that time jones averaging almost 20 pts and almost 10 rebs. if you notice his body movement isn't the same as before, yeah hes still taking shots but hes not as active as before. i still prefer terrence jones over derrick williams, because derrick williams is already sophmore. i do think a sophomore terrence jones i way way better than todays derrick williams.

I actually think our need for a PG is not as much as with Thornton here now. Look how well the team has played starting Luther at PG. A Tyreke (PG)/ Thornton (SG) backcourt is going to be really really good. Beno can play the 6th man roll and we are actually looking pretty good in the backcourt.
on 10-15 stock range, i remember tyreke evans on that. after the ncaa tourney even tyreke evans award college freshman of the year, his draft stock still on 10-15 range in most mock draft sites, he just improve his stock at the rookie camp. jrue holliday also improve his stock during the rookie camp from 2nd round draft pick to mid 1st round pick. i believe that brandon knight will improve his stock also in rookie camp. believe me this kid isn't a bad pick.
