James Jones 

Post#1 » by Slava » Thu Dec 8, 2011 3:45 pm

With Battier signed for the Heat he seems to be the odd man out since they are planning to keep Mike Miller. Could be a solid addition as a shooter(63% TS and 42% from 3 last season) and a decent enough defender as compared to Kapono.

Could well be available for the vets minimum I guess.

I would do that in a heart beat. Also I believe MM with get released and the Lakers should try to go after him also.

james jones sounds great, but riley will resign him too.

the heat will have a very unconventional lineup this year.

the big three will be asked to defend positions that they haven't had to defend in the past for extended minutes.

bosh will be guarding the opposing team's biggest guy.

wade will be guarding the opposing team's smallest guy.

james will be guarding the opposing team's power forward.

miller will start as the third ball handler and designated marksman; he'll guard the shooting guards.

battier will start too and guard the opposing team's small forward.

james jones will be the second string small forward and barrign injury will not be in the rotation.

the heat will defenitely be bringing him back. book it.
