At least he is still within the Kings organization!
Hopefully the Kings can turn this thing around, and he can be apart of that! Much love Bobby. The Kings need to hire Webber too i read an article where he was basically hinting that he wanted to be apart of the Kings!
Miguel Cotto will defeat Pacquiao on November 14, 2009! For PUERTO RICO baby..

Good luck B-Jax.
I think he stepped away a year or two later than he should have but this is an excellent opportunity for he and his family.
No law when it comes to me.
I let you type critics write and I just keep it hood.
That will never change.
I am not kissing no ones ass because I'm in LA. Suck a cock.

Would you turn down 14 million or so dollars by retiring?
No mistakes in the tango, darling. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....

No.
Money is money. I was never a huge fan of Jackson- even during his hey day. Too many off-balance fall-away threes with 17 seconds on the shot clock in a 4 point game with two minutes left (yes, that’s a long sentence). I never thought he was a smart offensive player. Gifted? Yes. A hustle guy? To quote Bobby- “most definitely”. The kings used to be the most intellectual team (on the court) in the NBA and I always thought that Jackson stuck out like a sore thumb as a guy who did what he wanted to- not necessarily what Adelman wanted him to do. Hell, maybe Jackson and his chaotic nature is exactly what Adelman was looking for. Either way, I like to see smart basketball and although Jackson always gave it his all, he was never a guy who I trusted to make good decisions when the game was on the line.
Still, he was a Kings and I wish him the best.

Well said
That’s exactly where I was at with him.

Sorry jjham
But you (and pookey) are nuts. Bobby was the perfect complimentary bench guard for that team. High energy, tough rebounding – he and DC and their perimeter defense were a primary reason that Kings team made the leap from solid playoff team to championship contender.
What the hell is Brett Favre doing here?

We must have been watching a different B-Jax
Cuz I didn’t see no great perimeter defender.

I just didn't drink the B-Jax kool-ade.
I understood the love affair. Many of those half cocked fall away 26 footers went in and the fans went nuts. He was an amazing rebounder for a guard and a brought a lot of energy. Watching Jackson last season really proves my point though- once his legs were gone, those miraculous bad shots that some how found the bottom of the net instead found the front of the rim to a tone of .398% from the floor and .305% from three. After leaving the Kings, Jackson spent parts of 4 with 4 different teams (including the Kings again). During that span he shot over 40% from the field 1 time- a 26 game span for Houston where he shot .419%.
I’m not a Bobby Jackson hater, just a fan who found him to be not to my taste. I remember sitting next to a guy at games who hated Chris Webber, even when the guy was a perennial MVP candidate. To each his own.

My 2 favorite players of that era
Were Doug Christie and Vlade Divac.

Favorite Bjax Moment:
2002. The Kings had just beaten the Mavs in the Western Conference Semi-Finals. BJax is the first player to leave the showers and re-enter the locker room. Koz immediately rushes toward him, shoves a microphone in his face, and starts asking questions. BJax is wearing only a towel around his waist.
Koz: I guess we should give you a moment to—
BJax: Give the world what they want to see, shit.
"El once, chico. Eleven."

That wasn’t a very nice thing to call Koz!
Kidding. BJax’s line should have been two sentences, though.
The draft lottery has reinforced my belief that there are not enough bad words in the English language.

When he spoke there was no pause between “see” and “shit.”
