I really liked Jones a few years ago. Haven’t kept up with him
Much since he was in Washington and PHX. I read Phx fans opinion of him and they are not fans. Said he defense was terrible and never got into the lane. Called him the king of easy assists. Pass the ball to an iso KD or Booker who make a contested jumper. Who knows. That Phx team was a mess. He would have been my pick on that draft. Mavs picked Justin Anderson.
Russell deserves more money then the the tax payer MLE. I am just not a huge fan. His strengths are not the finishing touches I am looking for. He shot poorly last year too. Might have been a rough year with trade rumors and then finishing in Brooklyn.
We can’t be too picky though. He is a solid player, but flawed. I would prefer a different direction though.
