Title: James vs Jones
Post by: nyg on November 28, 2025, 05:16:34 PM
I presume Jones will be back shortly.

Does Shaka keep James in starting lineup or replace with Jones.

James is so much more better on offense, today he had 20 points on 50% shooting, 4 assists and one turnover. Defense he has to work on, but he is getting game time experience.


Jones better on defense, not close to James offense. But does Shaka go back to Jones due to his culture/development/retention philosphy?


I hope he keeps James as starter, Jones and Stevens off bench and Norman with one to two minutes a half, giving a player rest before TV timeouts.

James was a difference maker today (be we needed at least one more difference maker).  Keep James, Sean as the backup.

I honestly never understood what anyone saw in Sean besides speed and athleticism.

Always struck me as an off the bench spark. Or, at best, defensive energy like Stevie.

JTY has had some very good moments. Don't forget what he did in Honolulu vs Kansas/Self.  And he can cause havoc on the defensive end.  I understand he was brutal to start this season, and seemingly hasn't improved his J, but he's still an impact player that hopefully can help us.

Muggs- Sean Jones is not an
" impact player " ... come on.  And he sure as heck is not going to save this sinking ship

I'm not saying he can salvage this season.

Why does RGV say that? Where does it even suggest that? Show your work, please. Thanks!
