Warriors Trade Stephen Jackson To Charlotte
DallasBasketball.com —
[image] The Mavs were always on Stephen Jackson’s wish list. But Capt. Jack – not so much due to his chronic disgruntlement but more due to his bloated contract – was never really on Dallas’ wish list. So the Warriors have gone elsewhere for a partner and according to ESPN’s Marc Stein, Jackson is moving East. Golden State is swapping Jackson to Charlotte , along with Acie Law, in exchange for Raja Bell and Vladimir Radmanovic. Cleveland and the Spurs were among the teams that considered acquiring Jackson. But they, like Dallas, likely didn’t want to forfeit any real talent in ...

... see Jackson fitting in with the Bobcats’ plans. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s flipped like Rasheed Wallace was a couple years ago to a contender. When Jackson announced his hopes for a trade this summer, he mentioned the Cavs, Knicks and the three Texas teams as possible destinations. All of those teams have some young pieces that the Bobcats would covet, so expect phones to be ringing all day. What do you think of this trade? How long with Jackson stay in Charlotte?

Embattled Jackson Headed to Charlotte
LeBrownsTown —
The most popular name associated with the Cavs rumor mill has been Stephan Jackson and it appears the Warriors forward is on the move. The Charlotte Bobcats will reportedly send veterans Raja Bell and Vladimir Radmanovich to Golden State for Jackson and point guard Acie Law. Although Jackson could have been an instant help on both ends of the floor, I am fine with losing out on him for three reasons. Firstly, his lucrative contract, four years including this one, could have hamstrung Danny Ferry in his quest to build consistently strong teams. Secondly, Jackson has a history ...

Weird Team Makes Weird Trade With Bad Team, News At 11
Hardwood Paroxysm —
So that happened.
My initial reaction is very much similar to the same reaction I had to the Diaw-Bell for Richardson trade.
“Well. That’s really weird.”
It’s just a weird trade. Weird players, weird swap, weird identities. The Bobcats needed a scorer, so Jackson can definitely contribute there, and when motivated can play some serious defense. So in the short term, that’s probably a good move. But then again…
Jackson’s salary increases every season, culminating in $10 million in ‘12-’13 when ...
Captain Jax Will Get You High Tonight
Cubicle GM —
Outstanding news from the warfront: Stephen Jackson is Charlote-bound in a deal that ships Raja Bell and Vlad Rad to Oakland. Everyone’s gonna use words like “embattled” and “disgruntled” when they describe Jax because he’s been looking for a trade for a while. It was on my radar, but I didn’t pay it much mind because it’s the Warriors and it’s Nelly, and really, all I knew of the situation was that Bill Simmons thinks the fans up there are pretty awesome and they’re being dicked over. The NBA’s got a bit of a me-first problem, but that’s the nature of the league. Can you ...

... S-Jax has gone to Charlotte, which means he won’t be coming to Cleveland. As many times as I tried to talk myself into what S-Jax may have brought, I’ve gotta admit a huge wave of relief just overcame me. I’m amazed G-State was able to get rid of him and take back that little salary, and a little sad it had to end this ugly for Captain Jack in the bay. ...
NBA Trade: Stephen Jackson to Charlotte
The Big Lead —
... forward Stephen Jackson was dealt this morning to Charlotte. Stack Jack and Acie Law (still surprised he’s been an NBA non-factor) will head East, and the Bobcats will ship aging Raja Bell and oft-traded Vlad Rad to Don Nelson’s doghouse. Knee-jerk: Any deal would have been good for the Warriors; the Bobcats finally get a scorer to boost their league-low FG percent (39) and ppg (82.4). It’ll be impossible for Acie Law to beat out Felton/Augustin for playing time. [ESPN] ...

Charlotte Bobcats Acquire Lower Team Morale
Real Fake Sports - Sports Satire l Fake Sports News l Sports Parody —
stephen_jackson By trading for Stephen Jackson , the Charlotte Bobcats have made the move they deemed necessary to lower the morale of their team. Morale had clearly been too high and team chemistry had just been a little too perfect. Acquiring Stephen Jackson, a guy that has been disgruntled everywhere he's been, is certainly a move in the right direction to adversely effect team chemistry and lower team morale. "Things had been going a little too well off the court," said Bobcats GM Rod Higgins. "We clearly needed to bring someone in to mix it up a little bit, and get under ...

Cavaliers Pass on Jackson: What Would Have Been, What Could Be

jerseycavs-copy The news isn’t that Golden State traded away Stephen Jackson. The news is who they sent him to. The Charlotte Bobcats aquired the disgruntled guard along with Acie Law for Raja Bell and Vladimir Radmanovic. We have been told over the past few weeks that Golden State was insisting on getting a big man back in the deal, and the Cavs certainly weren’t willing to part with Zydrunas without getting a center in return. The bottom line turned out to be a stalemate between the two clubs, and so this morning Jackson is packing his bags for North Carolina. So, as the ...

Cavs Might Regret This
Blak4rest —
... The Bobcats landed Stephen Jackson from the Warriors in a four-player deal announced today. Jackson and Acie Law were dealt to Charlotte for Raja Bell and Vladimir Radmanovic. Apparently, the Cavs had a chance to pick up Jackson for next to nothing, but refused to pull the trigger. He could have helped them immensely, particularly with the unknown status of Delonte West still up in the air. Jackson also would have given them another scorer, taking some needed pressure off LeBron. ESPN.com

Please welcome Stephen Jackson and Acie Law
BobcatsPlanet.com —
espn.com's Marc Stein is reporting that the Bobcats have shipped Raja Bell and Vladamir Radmonovic to the Golden State Warriors in return for Stephen Jackson and Acie Law. Jackson had been disgruntled to say the least in Golden State and I believe he had been Keyshawned. The Warriors are still playing Nellie ball and Jackson didn't fit well and was demanding a trade. Acie Law is that ever illusive 3rd point guard that Larry Brown covets, although he hasn't made great waves in the league, he is a servicable back up to Raymond Felton and DJ Augustin. From the Bobcats point of ...
Bud Adams gets excited and offensive and TO slept on his hands wrong

... Thought #3 - The perfect storm of self indulgent NBA players could be creating itself in Charlotte soon. The Bobcats traded for Stephen Jackson in a two for two deal, which included Acie Law, Raja Bell, and Vladimir Radmanovic. Also, Allen Iverson was officially released from the Grizzles today. Could this be the start of a train wreck? Something so awful, yet interesting, that we as fans can't bare to look away? Or could this be the one where all the hardened kids learn from each other's differences and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson comes in and coaches them to victory? Hmm, they ...
