ones opened cold. A quiet first quarter and a couple of dents on defense had the curve trailing zero before the bench even rotated.
The first quarter is where it broke open — toppin 30' 3pt jump shot (6 pts) (jones 1 ast) (+2.3). From that possession on, the curve never had to be rebuilt the same way twice.
The fourth was control. Jones closed at -5.2 without needing a final flourish to get there.
