kind of a corny title of an article by Quick at O-Live...unless he was inspired by our Dr. Strangelove thread

You really can see the influcence of Reggie on how Jones is able to drawl fouls on jumpshots. I remember seeing Pacers games Reggies last 2 years and quite often there were mentions that he was working with Jones alot personly. Now Jones never really got any burn so it was hard to see evidence of the work but I think we are seeing it now. Its amazing to see a team like the blazers who for the last couple years couldnt hit the side of a barn from the 3 point like to being a threat from there with players like Jones and Webster.

For a second I thought Jones was getting his own celebrity perfume.

I as well came into this thread expecting perfume and am sorely disappointed.
