    Thank you, JJ, you have given me a lot of good memories.

    Man, players have feelings too. They are not just products. I would be pissed too if I found out that I got traded after my best game of the season with 45 minutes of heartpouring effort that propelled my team to victory. The management makes me sick.

    So long, Jimmy!

    I am heartbroken. . . my two true favorite current rocket players have been be-traded . . . Boky for giving me hopes that he could be bred as the next rising star, and Jimmy Jackson for being the quiet, respectable, workhorse who could consistently come through for us. Damn whoever made this move! dammmmnnnn youuuuuuuuuuu!!!

    Anyone know where to get a cheap Magic jersey around here? I'm really getting sick of this cr*#.

    Good job JVG. Trade the one guy that always stuck up for you and didn't have a bad contract. Is that how you set your examples? Then probably our best shooter in Boki, who just needed more time on the floor.

    I'm still trying to figure out how so many could trade away such a solid player. My guess is that his all-round solid game and consistent contributions are valued by just about any team, whereas many other players have to find 'a fit'.

    Take care JJ. Thanks for all of the hustle.

    The ball is tipped
    and there you are
    you're running for your life
    JJ, you're a shooting star
    And all the years
    no one knows
    just how hard JJ worked
    but now it shows...
    (in) ONE SHINING MOMENT, IT'S ALL ON THE LINE
    ONE SHINING MOMENT, THERE FROZEN IN TIME

    But time is short
    and the road is long
    in the blinking of an eye
    ah that moment's gone
    And when it's done
    win or lose
    jj always did his best
    cuz inside JJ knew...
    (that) ONE SHINING MOMENT, YOU REACHED DEEP INSIDE
    ONE SHINING MOMENT, YOU KNEW YOU WERE ALIVE

    Feel the beat of your heart
    feel the wind in your face
    it's more than a contest
    it's more than a race...

    And when it's done
    win or lose
    you always did your best
    cuz inside you knew...
    (that) ONE SHINING MOMENT, YOU REACHED FOR THE SKY
    ONE SHINING MOMENT, YOU KNEW
    ONE SHINING MOMENT, YOU WERE WILLING TO TRY
    ONE SHINING MOMENT....

    All I can say is, his 15 to 20 points will be missed on nights like last night against the Bucks.
    Just when I thought we'd made a breakthrough by getting Barry, we take our usual three steps backward.
    We're screwed.
