One has played 52 games, the other has a mysterious foot injury with no timetable for return. That doesn’t really matter though, he just needs to be better than Saban Lee.

It's more about durability. And since Payne has been out a lot this year I'd prefer to add some depth at PG. Preferably someone with experience. So Reggie Jackson would be solid.

Kind of sucks we have a b2b. Anyone know if KD/TJ would be available tomorrow? (Edit..nvm..not sure what I was thinking..KD is out until after the ASB)

After that we have a big break until Tuesday.

Would be nice to have those guys tomorrow. At least we have Booker.

Regarding Jackson, seems like he was pretty awesome against us in the playoffs a couple years ago.

Yea but hes a really long defender and plays hard, Payne can't seem to stay healthy either. Would love to have him here.

Reggie Jackson on a buyout contract would be insane.

Wish we threw 2 2nds at Denver for Bones. That's a hell of a pickup for that price by the Clips.

Somebody probably should tell them that the Celtics and Bucks exist.


Raps are just waiting until the summer to make moves. All their assets are under contract. Even FVV could be signed and traded this summer (to us, if no one else).

We might be lucky to go 1-3 before the ASB. I know Book should be back but without Mikal and Cam along with the backup guards we are still thin. I guess we should have TJ tomorrow or at least by Tuesday.

But after the Hawks tonight, we have Indy on a b2b...then next week the Kings and Clippers...both tough ones

I'm still in prepared to be disappointed mode with TJ. He improved his 3pt shooting his last year here but he doesn't do much else other than score. That and the guy always had the weirdest injuries.

Bridges was SO good on the fastbreak but as I recall, TJ was pretty damn good too. And he is just so good at scoring in the midrange from all over. Then he added the 3 in that last year. Hasn't shot the 3 that much this year and is at 33.3% but hasn't played for that long either. Should get a lot more playing time now since our wing depth is so limited now...it's basically KD, Craig and him.
