With Willis playing so well, Jackson has been pretty much forgotten but not just by Rockets fans. Marc Jackson has played a total of <b><i>NINE MINUTES IN 2 GAMES!!!</i></b> He's actually gotten a DNP Coach's Decision in 2 of the 4 games the Warriors have played. Wow! From lovin' life to the bottom of the barrel!
Apparently Jackson has been hampered by some kind of "injury," which means he must still be pretty pissed off. BTW did anybody see the quote about how if they tried to trade him away, he would not consent to it just to screw the Warriors the way they screwed him? Hurting yourself so you can hurt others is awesome.
Right on Jeff. Worrell first said that MJ hadn't played this season, but later corrected himself with the 9 minute stat. He's out of shape and has a "strain" of some sorts. IMO its a "strain" of his pride. Willis is playing great. He's giving us almost everything we need. Of course he still takes shots I don't like, but overall I am very pleased with what he has brought to the Rockets.
I checked the Warriers web site today, and Jackson is not even listed on their active roster. I thought that was strange. Willis looks like he is twenty-five. We would be in deep trouble without him.
Poor guy, getting paid $24 million to stand around. I hear Kevin Willis is doing pretty well these days and in the final yr. of a 2 year, $3.3 million contract.
Anybody notice that line on Willis last night? In his first 2 minutes he had 2 points and 6 rebounds. I think Willis has played for his last team...
