Maybe it takes time for a basketball ball team to come together? Just look at the Cleveland Cavaliers right now. They've got the best player in the league, the second best PF, the best young PG, and a bench full of experienced role players and are still struggling to stay .500. Once again, team has to grow more before we crucify Jones. If we are having the same issues 20 games in, then the criticism is deserved.

If he cant win this year what makes you think next will be any different if we lose Martin and Mickey? Sure we have Simmons but have no one else even committed right now. Even if we got Blakeney then we're just "young" again next year with 2 freshmen starting.

If you want to recruit NBA players you cant expect them to stay 3 or 4 years, they are going to leave after 1 or 2 generally. If he cant put together a winning team with this formula then his formula needs to change.
