I had mentioned LB's 6'6"-6'10" wet dream crew last page as guys who can all play and defend multiple positions.

That would include:

Livingston (1, 2, 3)
Jax (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
Crash (2, 3, 4, 5)
UPS (2, 3, 4)
Diaw (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
McGuire (2, 3, 4)
T2 (3, 4, 5)

I don't want to see Jax trying to guard a proper 5. But the rest is good. I've never seen McGuire play though.

He's a defensive horse. Imagine an offensively (Please Use More Appropriate Word) Graham.

Stephen Graham shares my last name, so I kind of freaked out there for a moment. But glad to see another bench defender on a team that's supposed to thrive on 48 minute defense.

Meh, so I was wrong..... But still Jax is pretty good, and Ille be dammed if we trade away a guy that has done so many firsts for us, first to get us to the playoffs (without him we would not have gone), first for a tripple double, I mean after all he has done for the team I just cant see it being a reasonable move, even PR wise....

"so many firsts" and you list two?



Also, and while I do think Jack helped, let's not downplay Crash's 10+ boards, Ray's improved shot, and the team's best overall defense in the league when considering "what got us to the playoffs"

So after tonights game are you going to start a thread called:

"Lets sign Capt Jack to a max contract"

Especially when the guard was already over 30.

Jackson for Kaman would never happen. The longer the Bobcats hold on to Jackson the more of a toxic asset he becomes.
