Maybe it also explains why you feel your teams are under appreciated (although the last time I thought you had one of the better teams). I see what you're driving at, but how do we judge that? Is someone like Jones assumed to be a low-end guy that can make 3's (eg 32-33%), or he is average because of his mid-range game?
In other words, I think it's fine to "translate" a remotely decent shooter into a guy that can at least shoot a 3. But Iman Shumpert learned to be a 33-34% 3-point shooter, and he doesn't have gravity and doesn't kill you from the corner or anything. I think you're saying we should at least assume Jones would translate to something like that, correct?
Why, I'd expect you to judge based on how you personally think he'd be able to play my friend.
Wouldn't have it any other way.
In terms of gravity, when I drafted Jones I believed that he would not be able to be ignored from the perimeter and he'd be a major cutting threat. Basically I believe he helps sustain space and exploit it.
