    If he were here, he'd start at small forward.

    I've never seen a more reactive organization then the Rockets. Why can't they be proactive and shore up the SF spot? They can do it cheap, yet they won't. We even have Terrence Morris to help at the SF spot yet we don't even know if they'll sign him. If the Rockets think that Piatkowski is going to be the answer at SF then they're not very bright. The Rockets can survive with Griffin and Mo at the PF spot, just get an athletic SF in here and I'll be more then pleased!

    Posey is a much better overall player. He has everything Stephen Jackson has, and then some.

    I hope we are just keeping the Grizz from signing any other FA's by taking so long before we say we want him back. I hate the idea of helping teams that are below you.

    SJ brins nothing that this team needs, it's that simple. We are in excellent shape from long range (Rice and Pike), his defense is not as good as Hawkins, Mobley, or even T-Mo, and he doesn't do ANYTHING else. he's really not worth anything but a 3-pt shooter off the bench. We have Rice for that.

    If they work a sign and trade and take Moochie off our hands, I'd do it. But I don't see why the Spurs would do that.

    I had forgotten all we can offer S Jack is a deal starting a 2 million a year (left from our MLE). By all means offer one for as many years as he wants. Fat chance him taking it, but maybe if he is pissed enough at SA you never know.
