All BS aside, would you really want SJax back?

[Marcus Bryant]

Jack would provide the one thing the Spurs don't have...the guy who can ball when everything else has broken down. He proved that in Game 6 of the '03 WCF. The Steve Kerr Personality Cult or whatever will always deny it, but it was Jack who ended that series, not Stevie Wonder. He's a clutch player and while he may turn the ball over or squeeze off a clip outside of a strip club he would be a huge part of the Spurs today if not for whatever went down in the summer of '03.

Didn't we bring Barry in AFTER we had signed Manu?

Yes. They used their caproom to sign Manu, then resigned Parker using Bird rights and signed Barry using exception money. That's all ed up if Jack re-signs for too much. They needed the caproom for Manu, since he only played two years on his original deal, and they didn't have Bird rights. We might have lost him like GS lost Senor Hibachi to a team swooping in and throwing a wad of cash at him. At the time, I believe that non-Bird players could only be matched to the MCE. GS was furious and I think the NBA changed the rule to match to any amount a year or two later.

[Man of Steel]

Bring back Jackson.

Do it Front Office.

Never let him go to Phoenix.

I think he'll probably get the rich athelete or celebrity treatment and not serve any time--unlike the regular schmo who doesn't have the money for a good lawyer and star status.

I think he's already gotten that for the Malice in the Palace, and ed it up with that weapons violation. , Paris Hilton is going to the slammer for 45 days for probation violation and driving w/ a suspended license a few times.
