With the Indiana Pacers' recent addition of Solomon Jones, Bobby Roberts was certainly right, the Pacers are going to be pretty active this off-season. I like the addition of Jones because he hasn't shown his skills much too often on the NBA court. But I've seen a few highlights, and I like how he rolls. With the Pacers most probably using him as a center, I've seen that he is pretty athletic. He is also a good blocker and he can help you with some putback dunks. Although some people may call this deal somewhat near the word of stupid, I don't entirely think so. He can be a good rebounder, and like I said above, a good blocker and a man who can help Indy out in some putback shots. Although his stats don't speak for himself, he never started any games, so you could understand why. When Jones is in Indy, the depth chart will look like this:PG: T.J. Ford/Earl Watson/Travis Diener/A.J. Price (Jeez, how many point guards does Indy need?)SG: Brandon Rush/Dahntay JonesSF: Danny Granger/Mike DunleavyPF: Troy Murphy/Tyler Hansbrough/Josh McRobertsC: Roy Hibbert/Jeff Foster/Solomon JonesI wish all the luck to Jones. Let's see if he can show what he is worth in Indy. Jones, you're in Indy, show what you can do.
