    J Howard is not a locker room stirrer, he just got a bad rap b/c of all the money he was making and lack of superstardom. He has been a hardworker, from reports I have read.

    Jim Jackson is one of my favorite players... His mindstate is so mature and professional...

    His was our most consistant player last year IMO...

    JJ will be the glue of our team for next few years to come...

    Good article...made me glad to see his thoughts on the organization's offseason moves...

    He will compliment Yao and McGrady perfectly...if you thought he had a breakout season last year, wait until this year!!!


    (barring no injuries)!!!

    Sorry, being "cut" was not accurate. Maybe "unwanted" is a better term here. What I meant was those teams could keep him for the minumum, but choose not too. To me, that's the same as being released by the team.

    Don't get me wrong here, I like most of the things the guy did for the amount of money we are paying him. Just got some problem with the number of shots he took last season. Too many for a role player.

    yes i agree i didn'tk now he was 6th in the league in 3 pointers made last season. He was terrific and and definitely worth the contract we gave him. :) I want his jersey! Even when he stepped out of bounds..I really never got too pissed at him..his 3's were quite consistent..he did get owned sometimes by guys like Rashard Lewis though. And that one play against the Lakers...honest mistake. :) Now M&M Dynasty rules

    My list was not inclusive. . . .
    Yao, Mo, Big E are all still ahead of JVG

    Judging by his comments, you can tell that he is a team player. He understands the value of unselfish play and helping each other become better. We need more players like this.
