If that's true then that would doubly rule out the Kings.

Re: Sequ Rumor: Stephen Jackson will be a Spur by the end of the week.
As much as I think it unnecessary to bring back Capt. Jack, it would be worse to see him go to Dallas or Cleveland. If we can swap some scrubs for him, by all means. Seems a bit lofty, though IMO.

Bakersfield CA, hands down. Fort Worth is pretty nasty too, but it's a diverse hell-hole.

Never been.
Its a dusty sad looking site on the drive up I-5 TO Sacramento however.

Re: Sequ Rumor: Stephen Jackson will be a Spur by the end of the week.
I'd prefer to trade for him without losing Mason if at all possible. Someone mentioned Finley + Bonner worked salary-wise, along with maybe our protected 2011 pick.
I realize the odds of this actually happening are extremely low, I'm just glad there's something to talk about. These next couple of months before the season starts are going to kill me.

Why would GS want Berea anyways? They have Curry and Ellis who are bigger and better.
Why would Dallas want to give up Barea anyways? He's their best PG.

We need a gangsta on this team. We are missing that.

Re: Sequ Rumor: Stephen Jackson will be a Spur by the end of the week.
For those of you who think that the Spurs could ever get Jackson without letting go of the likes of Hill, Mason, Jefferson or Ginobili, you need to pass whatever you are smokin'. :smokin
The Spurs already picked Ginobili over Jack once, and that was two championships ago, so I don't think they'll be changing their minds now, bad ankles be damned.
Jefferson just got here, so he won't be traded without having a chance to play.
Perhaps the right package of Mason and/or Hill, plus filler (i.e. Bonner, Finley, Williams) would strike the chord with Golden State, but I'm betting other teams will be able to offer better packages. And as much as I'd love to get Jack back on board (and I would), I still would hate to see it at the cost of the youth movement.
Not to mention this would also push us even more ridiculously over the cap then we already are. I don't even care to take the time to do the math, but I'm pretty sure the contracts of Duncan + Parker + Ginobili + Jackson + Jefferson alone would put the Spurs over the cap or damn near it, which will only be dropping next year.
Nellie wouldn't trade baseball cards with Cuban, so no worries about him going to Dallas.
-
Re: Sequ Rumor: Stephen Jackson will be a Spur by the end of the week.
If Jackson is going to end up anywhere, I think it will probably be Houston. I doubt he would go to Cleveland and there's no way Nellie is trading with Cuban.
However, word is Golden State is trying to get some cap relief so they are open to trading some rotation players. If they are really trying to get cap relief, then a trade with the Spurs wouldn't be completely out of the question. I'd love to see Jack back, but I just don't think it would happen.
-
Re: Sequ Rumor: Stephen Jackson will be a Spur by the end of the week.
Why would Houston want Jackson? The reason they did not sign Artest is because with his age and the length of the contract he wanted, he would not help them win a title with Yao and T-Mac in limbo. They could not build around him.
Same with SJax. He is almost identical to why the Rockets did not want Artest.
-
Re: Sequ Rumor: Stephen Jackson will be a Spur by the end of the week.
Articles suggest that GS wants cap relief. I see them trading Jackson to accomplish that but no way they trade Ellis and/or Biedrins to do so too. They can get some talent in return for those guys for sure.
Dallas is really high on Beaubois so that might be why they part with Barea.
GS has a log jam at the 2/3 so why would they want both Finley and Mason?

Ellis, Biedrens, Maggette, Jackson. In 2012-2013, these four are the only certain contracts for the Warriors. That's four players making $41M. I think GS HAS to move at least two of them. Ellis and Biedrens both have player options for 2013-2014, so they might be harder to move. They're going to have to pay players like Curry and Randolph in a few years, and they're going to want to play them now.
My guess is they'll move Jackson and Ellis. Jackson, in spite of the foolishness spouted here, is on a relatively decent contract. A contender won't balk at that for playoff clutch. Ellis is a bit of a headcase, but is the prototype guard to play under the new hand check restrictions, a la Parker or Devin Harris.

Re: Sequ Rumor: Stephen Jackson will be a Spur by the end of the week.
I can't see them moving Ellis unless he is a big time malcontent. Ellis and Curry could be a nice young back court for the future and then you keep Biedrins and Randolph.

Ellis' advocate was Mullin, who's now gone. The current FO personnel are the ones who meted out his long punishment suspension last year. Ellis made it clear this summer that he didn't want for GS to draft a PG. They drafted a PG.
Doesn't sound like a marriage made in heaven to me. They might keep him this year unless he's actively disruptive, but if he is, they may ship him out before the deadline. I think he's gonzo by next summer at the latest.

Re: Sequ Rumor: Stephen Jackson will be a Spur by the end of the week.
I don't think Curry is a PG, but that is just me. I think he is a SG. It will be interesting to see what they do with Ellis.

Jackson won't sign because he's an overrated player that takes more shots than he makes that cares more about SLAM magazine than playing good defense.

He's as much a PG as Ellis is, and a better shooter by far.

Finley does have the Nellie connection... :stirpot:.

Re: Sequ Rumor: Stephen Jackson will be a Spur by the end of the week.
I don't think we need him. We need Splitter more than we need Jax.

I see many of oyu have never been to Arkansas, Kentucky, pretty much all of Appalachia etc.
Living in a trailer is one thing. Living in a town that still doesnt have running water is quite another.

I think the best test for white trashdom within a populace is, 'how many times does a city appear on episodes of COPS within a year?'. Observing Appalachia is like tribal anthropology. You can hardly fault them for being backwards.

Pimp C rapped about Stephen Jackon because they're both from Port Arthur. Nevertheless, Jax is the man and I've wanted him back ever since he bolted for Atlanta after the '03 Finals. Not going to happen though.
