Career PER of 14.7, career best of 16.1

He’s always been a bit overrated imo.

He can score, but has a career FG% of 41.8%. If he was on my team, I’d rather he not shoot so much.

Okay.

I think you’re misinterpreting me saying “the man can still play” to mean ’he’s an all-star’ or ’he’s one of the best players in the league’.

As far as this year goes his per game value (min/g pts/g 3/g reb/g ast/g stl/g blk/g fg% fga/g ft% fta/g) is better OR in the company of:
 
Rodney Stuckey
Caron Butler
Charlie Villanueva
Anthony Randolph
Paul Millsap

He’s not an all-star but he doesn’t necessarily suck. Stats don’t show his leadership and toughness on the court. Sure he’s been a d*ckhead in the media lately but that doesn’t take too much away from Stephen Jackson, the ballplayer. I don’t know anybody who considers him an all-star, but he can be an asset on any team, so I don’t think he’s overrated at all.

Plus if the league average is 15.00 every season, a 14.77 PER ain’t too shabby. This season, Marvin Williams is at 14.98 and Ariza is at 14.91 to name a few folks that are solid NBA players.

I’ll say it again, he’s a d*ckhead but he can still play.

33 Wins. Yeah, I said it.

by JETisKing on Nov 9, 2009 9:05 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

Valid points

However, he makes a ton of money for being a malcontent and a fairly inefficient scorer. There are over 360 players on NBA rosters, and I’m betting that I could find at least 150 guys that I would want before Jackson.

Exactly the way I've always thought of Jackson

The reason why he was averaging 20ppg stats is due to the fact that he was the most selfish player on a crappy team, during those years. Sure, Biedrins is ridiculously efficient, but he never gets enough touches to exploit that efficiency.

All of a sudden, Jackson’s on a team with a bit more depth, where he’s been throwing his teammates under the bus, even before the season started. He’s been complaining about not getting enough touches, with his ridiculously average shooting efficiency.

…and NOW he throws one of OUR players under the bus. Seriously, what a grade-a jackass. He deserves to be benched.

Captain Jack is losing his mind, wasn’t he comparing himself to Kobe or saying he’s on Kobe’s level in the preseason? His body language is terrible, last night he put up the emptiest 21 I’ve seen this season. He hasn’t been a factor in a while, so I guess he knows what he’s talking about.

Unfortunately,

they aren’t killing themselves, just the teams that invested in them. Baron Davis blu-flued his way out of New Orleans, and Vince Carter did the same with Toronto.

So, if said person is, in fact, a “factor” in this league, then wouldn’t it be safe to say that the young rookie who played just as well if not better than this whiny little bitch in their game last night might also be a “factor” in this league?

Omri – 12 points, 4-6 shooting, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals

Wow

Is that how he acts after he’s gets burned by Omri, Tyreke & Donté. I’m glad I was there to see his team get whipped.

If Stephen Jackson's this stupid on dope

Imagine what an idiot Stephen Jackson would be on meth. For my own personal amusement I gladly encourage Stephen Jackson to try meth.

Maybe they should trade him

for Iverson… that would solve their problems.

Whaaaat?

What's the past tense for "scam?" Is it "scrumped?"

Comeback

Jackson did manage to dish out 15 assists last night as the Warriors mauled the Timberwolves last night. The T-Wolves must be really bad.

I don't know if really bad

does justice to it.

I haven’t drunk the cc “we’re making a run at the playoffs” kool-aid (though I’m not mocking him for it, it beats the hell out of last year), but I’d much rather be us than a fair number of teams right now, and MN & GS have to be near the top of this list.

Yep

GS is in such a bad way. They would have to dump all their talented players (and bad contracts) just to start over. It would make their fanbase livid, and some people wouldn’t get over it because the Dubs would trade their “favorite” player.

That's a tough situation

After years of ineptitude, that franchise found lightning in a bottle with Baron Davis, Monta, Stephen Jackson, etc.

I realize that most Warrior fans that show up at Arco (and a large portion of the crowd at GSoM) are neanderthals, but I still almost feel bad for them – they were finally rewarded with a team with a bright future, now a few years later it’s like that team never happened.

They have some good solid young pieces (Curry, Biedrins, Randolph, Morrow)

They just need to get rid of everyone else. Monta is a good scorer but IMO they should trade him along with Maggete and Jax, to get some young pieces, picks, or cap relief.

I wa svery impressed with Curry on Sunday night and I thought that aside from some early turnovers he had a decent game. I had my doubts about him as a distributor but the kid can pass the ball just fine and you can tell he has a great shot that’s just going to take time to be effective at this level. I don’t think you build around him but he’s a solid piece along with Biedrins and Randolph.

Too bad they have a coach that doesn’t care anymore and a front office that has no clue.

The future begins now...

Still not sold on Randolph

he’s still a deathstick. If he can’t put on any weight he’s a somewhat more talented Mikki Moore. That would make him a decent player – but a force? Also his head is all (not suprisingly) messed up by Nellie and that can have lasting effects.

I think he has the potential (a lot do)

but even if he doesn’t realize it, he could still be somehow solid. I don’t think they have a piece to build around yet but they do have some young players. The first step needs to be gettin rid of Nellie and changing the culture of the team. They need a Blazers-type cleansing. Unfortunately, their front office is not likely to do that anytime soon.

We should pay attention

when they start dumping players. We might be able to use one of their 2 guards.

I'm not thinking about those two guys

Jackson is too moody and unstabile and Monta is making the big $$$. I am thinking more of their other lesser paid guard-forward types like Morrow or Azubukie.

Well, too bad that no actual basketball was involved in this game

I was there. and A. I missed Arco, B. I actually made it all the way through the end but that’s because we were doing drinking games about the scoring and C. the very loud and synchronized “boo” the captain got was quite lovely.
