    Alright, enough bickering about the trade. BJax is now a Houston Rocket so let's embrace him as one of our own. Fans don't think there is much difference between him and Luther. I disagree. Not only can he shoot, but BJax can attack the basket and finish also. Not to mention he has much more playoff experience than Head. Also, the guy can flat out score. He could end up being that 3rd scorer we need.

    Here are some highlight mixes to show what he can potentially bring to Houston:

    Bobby Jackson New Orleans Mix

    Rockets show up @ 2:08 (rips T-Mac :D ), 3:12 and 3:19.


    Ridiculous Reverse layup by BJax on the Rockets

    Funny tidbit: A couple years ago, SAC traded Bobby Jackson to Memphis for Bonzi Wells. Now, Rockets trade Bonzi to New Orleans for Bobby Jackson. Weird isn't it?

    Yes. Because the first 2 washed up, undersized, shoot-first point guards worked out so well for us.

    Goodbye James is more satisfying than Hello BJ. :)

    Bobby I hope your time in Houston is short lived...like 2 more hours so you can be shipped to a team that would actually use your old, washed up, over shooting, no passing, t-mac fighting, midget self.

    I'm still pissed we gave up size, rebounding, and an attacking wing player (albeit horrible free-throw shooter, but it helps to get us in the bonus sooner).

    But the last time we got a guard from the Hornets (David Wesley) we took off (and still lost in the first round), but he was good for us that season. Maybe BJax can have the same impact on our back court.

    Welcome to Hizzo fo shizo town.

    Too bad he had to come after they tried closing all the strip joints down. I guess you won't see too much BJ at the strip joints.

    When we brought in James, we hoped he can be Bobby Jackson. Then we bring in the REAL Bobby!

    the trade wasn't what we were looking for obviously, but i am still happy with jackson. this was all adelman promoting him b/c they had great playoff runs together with sacto. he will bring us great experience and points off the bench! i hope he plays tonight, but i doubt he will....
