Born in Pompano Beach, Florida, 1994, Jones was chosen because the Lakers failed to advance to the playoffs and finished 10th in the first round. Jones' excellent offensive and defensive skills made him shine in his rookie season, especially his interception ability, averaging 2.05 interceptions per game, which is the highest among rookies and the best rookie player of the Lakers since Magic Johnson. Jones even won the most valuable player award in the NBA Rookie Challenge, and was naturally selected as the first team of the best rookie. In the following two seasons, Jones still maintained an excellent defensive level. 1996-97 set a number of personal records, and 1997-98 and 1998-99 were selected as the second defensive team of the year twice.

Jones and Kobe Bryant, who joined the Lakers at 1996, are close friends. This is because they knew each other long before they entered the NBA, and Jones took good care of Kobe. In addition, the two have the same position and similar styles, so they are regarded as the hope of the Lakers in the future. However, the team's top management thought that Kobe Jones was more worthy of training, and Kobe made rapid progress, so the team traded Jones to Charlotte Hornets for glen rice with 1999. Jones spent a season with the Hornets and was traded to Miami Heat in the summer of 2000. The star players on the team included alonzo mourning, tim hardaway, anthony mason and Brian Grant. , leading the Heat 50 wins and 32 losses; Unfortunately, Hardaway retired, Mourning suffered from kidney disease, and other players were injured or aged. Although Jones still works hard, the team's performance is getting worse every season. It was not until caron butler and Dwain Wade were selected in 2002 and 2003 that they entered the playoffs again in 2004.

In 2004, the Heat sent Butler, Grant and Odom, who had just been recruited the year before, to the Los Angeles Lakers in exchange for shaquille o'neal, and Jones once again cooperated with the best center in the league. Although his score hit a career low, due to his excellent peripheral defense, Wade's initiative and O 'Neal's strong inside attack, the Heat finally reached the Eastern Conference finals again and lost to Detroit Pistons in Game 7.

June 5438+October 2007 10, Jones returned to Miami immediately after being abandoned by Memphis Grizzlies, hoping that through his defense, the Heat, which was plagued by injuries and aging problems, could successfully enter the playoffs. Unfortunately, the team was swept out by Chicago Bulls 4-0 in the playoffs, and Jones' performance was also average. At the end of the season, Jones returned to freedom and moved to Dallas Mavericks. In August 2007, Jones signed a contract with Dallas Mavericks and has now retired.

In the NBA draft of 1994, the Lakers selected eddie jones, a plain and frail black guy from Temple University, one of the four major basketball colleges in Philadelphia, at the position of 10.

1994 is the first time that the Lakers have not played the playoffs since 17. At that time, the team veteran James Worthy and others retired one after another, and most of them were young players, so Jones easily squeezed into the team's starting lineup with his own strength. Jones performed very well in his rookie season, averaging 14 points per game, with the highest 2.05 steals among rookies, making him the best rookie team.

Jones was selected as the starting player of the Green Team in the 1995 All-Star Weekend Rookie Game. It was not until overtime that the game was decided. Jones played for 29 minutes, scored a game-high 25 points and was elected MVP. Jones's wonderful performance is eye-catching: the same height, similar body shape and the same flying ability make people associate him with the great No.23. Los Angeles fans expect Jones to lead the team out of the trough and win the championship like Jordan. And the smooth sailing also made Jones confident and even a little carried away. Unfortunately, the Lakers have no patience to wait for Jones to become Jordan.

In the summer of 1996, the Lakers tried their best to get O 'Neal and Kobe Bryant, and Jones became the second person on the team. Jones certainly felt a little bad when O 'Neill was in front of him, but he also knew O 'Neill's position, so he tried his best to help O 'Neill. But soon he found that he could not compete not only with O 'Neill, but also with the high school student. Since then, Jones has established the embarrassing position of having a second child. ...

1999 March 10, Jones finally left the Lakers without a position and was traded to the Charlotte Hornets with elden campbell. Jones' departure made the fans in Los Angeles miss him very much. Someone said, "It was the saddest time for me to trade eddie jones for Glenn Rice. I don't understand why the Lakers traded heavyweight guard Jones for a pure pitcher. Of course, this pitcher is Glenn Rice, but we can also see that in the 1999-2000 season, Rice did not achieve the same results as he did in the Hornets. Part of the reason is that he is nothing as an offensive player. In a team with players like O 'Neal and Kobe Bryant, there are few opportunities for him to shoot. If the Lakers still had Eddie, the road they had taken before might be easier. Jones can make excellent defense in any position of defender or small forward, and his scoring ability is good (although not very stable). Maybe the reason why I miss Jones so much is that he is really a good man. "

1999-2000 season became the peak of Jones' career, averaging 20. 1 point per game, ranking first in the lineup, ranking first in the league with 2.67 steals, and also being selected as an all-star team, the third team of the year and the second team of the best defense. That season, Jones became the most beautiful and diligent player of the Hornets. He is everywhere on the court, and can be seen in attack, defense and even organization.

But Jones' performance still failed to impress the management and fans of the Hornets. In August 2000 1, it was packaged and traded to the Heat. At that time, the Heat had stars such as Mourning, tim hardaway, brian grant and anthony mason, and their head coach was the famous Pat Riley in the NBA, with a strong lineup. Playing in such a team is undoubtedly the dream of every player, and Jones is no exception. He is determined to fuel the Heat's burning championship hopes and reach the peak of his career in Miami. In short, Jones' transfer from Charlotte to Miami not only filled him with expectations, but also was highly anticipated by people. Unfortunately, it backfired. As soon as Jones signed a contract with the Heat, Mourning was diagnosed with incurable kidney disease. Everyone knows what bereavement means to the Heat. Riley's tactical thought was originally to instigate the offensive and defensive conversion of the whole team with the center as the core. The heat without whining is like a dragon with its muscles pulled out, and it can't fly limply. Jones can't make up for this.

In the next few years, the Heat's record became worse year by year, and the major stars in the team also left the team. Only Jones stayed, but he has become the leader of the team. He can only get beautiful data every day, but he can't lead the team to victory. Finally, in 2003, Riley first selected Wade and then signed ODOM, and Jones' boss career ended again. In 2004, the Heat made a big change and bought Jones' former teammate, "Shaq" O 'Neill. Jones officially became the second role player, focusing on assisting sharks and the Flash. However, the piston broke Jones' last hope. ...

On August 2, 2005, Jones came to Grizzlies with the biggest deal in NBA history, and spent his old age here. In the summer of 2006, his high-paying contract expired.

I remember the first time I went to Miami, Jones once said that he wanted to be the second Scott Pippen and do things that were good for the team even if the data could not be reflected, because only when every player became selfless can a team hope to win. 10 years ago, it was thought that Jones would find a small forward with better offensive and defensive comprehensive strength than Pippen in the future. Now, now. ...

What a pity!
