I think people are under evaluating what Jones brings to the table. And I'm more likely to think that a 28 year old that has a single bad season after three pretty good ones and had a low shooting percentage had a bad season.

Add on top of that the Avs had a coach who was functionally ######ed and you start to see a reason for player declines.
Wasn't Joe Sacco the coach from 2009 - 13? Which is the same time frame where Jones had his good years? Also, I would say 2 good years...he didn't play close to a full season until his 4th year...
