Re: Fred Jones To the Raptors?
We can still match it, but I doubt we will so if this is true good luck in Toronto Freddie, just don't expect him to hit any clutch FT's, or shots for that matter..

Re: Fred Jones To the Raptors?
If the rumoured signing is true, can anyone give me the 411 on him? How he is on/off the court, his offence/defense. Thanks Much

Fred is a short SG who has good D, and his shot has improved every year, he can play the point if need be, but not for very long, he has pretty good speed, and can drive to the basket, but turns over the rock way too much, and his handle is below average...He can go for 20 or 30 one night, and the next completly disappear, he's also very overrated as a dunker, although he's very athletic for his size....He usually shoots around 80% from the line, but when the game's on the line well that's another story, oh and he also has a decent 3 point shot...All in all though he's a very good bench player, and also doesn't cost any problems off the court....
Anything else I miss??

He's not a bad shooter when his hand/wrist/fingers aren't injured.

He's short, but has long arms.

Except this past year.

|
I'd go into a little more detail: He's not so turnover prone, as much as he just jumps into the air too much, and can't do anything with the ball.

His handle is pretty good. That's why he can play some PG.

|
he's also very overrated as a dunker
|
No one overrates him. Most say he's the worst slam dunk champion of all-time.
