I've been missing lately. However, this trade sort of excites me -- we're giving up a terrible player in Radmanovic and, what looks like Raja Bell's injured wrist for a good, but inconstant volume scorer and a young, promising point guard.
I know, Jackson turns the ball over more than most point guards (in fact, more than anyone else in the league). I also realize he's basically the Zach Randolph equivalence at shooting guard.
I think games might be more interesting, at least, with this sort of talent manning our swingman position -- and apparently, he's excited to play for us to the point of wanting to play tonight.
And to the negative nancies -- fuck you. Maybe we'll go after AI next so you can perpetually cry about how more and more awesome this team is getting to be.
Bobcats really need someone who score, so I think Jackson will be a good fit. Don't really like the whole salary issue, but whatever.
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking though this guy doesn't end the season as a Bobcats. We can trade him for some young guys at the Cavs for example.
Raja Bell was awesome, and contributed greatly to this team. Not only was he a expiring contract, but he's also very injury prone, so it makes sense we got rid of him. I'll miss him though.
Coud care less about Vlad. He was a mistake to begin with.
