Fred Jones is headed to Toronto.
Jones' agent said Sunday that the shooting guard has agreed to a three-year deal for about $11 million with the Raptors.
"I'm very happy on where Fred is going," agent Bill Duffy said. "He'll have an opportunity to show what he can do up there. Fred is going to a team that likes to play up-tempo now that (Raptors general manager) Bryan Colangelo has come there from Phoenix. They got a very good point guard in T.J. Ford. It's a good fit for Fred."
Jones was a restricted free agent, but the Indiana Pacers recently rescinded their qualifying offer, making him an unrestricted free agent.
Jones, the No. 14 pick in the 2002 draft, spent his first four seasons with the Pacers, where he averaged 7.7 points and 2.2 rebounds.
Jones' days with the Pacers appeared numbered earlier this summer when they drafted James White and acquired Marquis Daniels from Dallas in a trade.

I think Fred Jones has tons of potential, good move by the Raptors, maybe a change of scenery will set him off
-
Yea, Fred Jones has a lot of potential...Still, he's gunna be a bench player and will most likely reprise the role he had in Indiana...
-
You guys are lucky Im really gonna miss Freddie :'( If you guys were smart you will have him start
-
You guys are lucky Im really gonna miss Freddie :'( If you guys were smart you will have him start
Over Morris Peterson and Anthony Parker? :nawty:

definetly over Anthony Parker no question, and its a toss up between him and mopete but I'd start Freddie, his athleticsm does wonders for teams

great move again by Colangelo.. Toronto may improve a lot next season

LMAO, Hav€ you s€€n Anthony Park€r play?
Anthony Park€r > Morris P€t€rson > Fred Jones

Anthony Park€r > Morris P€t€rson > Fred Jones
no way man! Ive seen Parker play and he's alright but Freddie and MOPete are WAYYY better. The most Parker has ever averaged was 3.5 ppg, you saying he is better than MoPete and Freddie is absurd.

LMAO, I don't think were talking about the same Anthony Parker, I'm talking about the heavily recruited Anthony Parker from the Euroleagues, the back-to-back Euroleague MVP and easily the biggest basketball star out there...PeACe

you both are IDIOTS. Plant your just upset that 99% of people said they think JO is better than Bosh so thats why your always out to get me, and Nik thinks Odom is a top 10 player in the league, and Im the idiot. Fred Jones is WAY better than Parker, I can go to youtube and put up a bunch of sick Freddie plays aswell, Jones > Parker EASILY!
-
not taking anything away from Jones, but he averaged 8 points and 2 assists last season.....Parker is a seasoned vet who can put up 30 a game on any given night....Dude was the Euro league MVP the last 2 seasons and he also led his team to the championship those years.
-
Good depth move for now i guess
Hopefully down the road the former Dunk champion can develop into a starter
Out
Charlie V
Rafeal Arujo
Eric Williams
Mike James

Actually I believe Jones averaged almost 10 points a game. But newayz you saying Parker can put up 30 a night is the dumbest thing anyone has ever said. Let Jones start and he will average 15-17 ppg EASILY, Jones is on a whole other level then Parker

LMAO. I didn't even resort to name-calling or diss you, but since you went there, you're OBVIOUSLY basketball retarded, man...You don't even know who Anthony Parker is, you probably just typed his name on NBA.com playerfile...Do you think Fred Jones would be back-to-back MVP of the Euroleagues? Every team in the NBA has been tryna get Parker for the last few years, but he refused to come out here since he was treated like royalty where he lived, unless he was promised a big role on a team...He was by far the best player in Europe, how do you even dare compare him to Fred fucking Jones? That's a joke, man...And fuck the highlights, some of those shot Parker was making Jones can only DREAM of making...Learn your shit before you talk shit...Duncan>Kobe...LMFAO!

I dont have beef with you either, in fact I actually like you, we argue alot but thats because we both have strong opinions on Basketball nothing wrong with that. And ok I was wrong saying I watch more basketball then you when we watch the same, but Plant is the one who started this saying I dont know shit. Also Sarunas was considered the best player in europe and he is on my team and you dont see me praising him consistently
