Wow. I'm shocked. Can he still qualify for the playoffs now that he is on waivers?

What a bum. He was back on a well respected contender with a solid role. Not to mention, he's in his home state. Can't think of a better situation to be in. Jack gon' Jack.

It's too bad that they can't, they could really use another center.

Pop went on to say Jackson stays at his
home to keep him out of trouble – like the
kind he got into as a Pacer – but that had to
be a joke. Right?


If Pop is serious then wow.

This is considered baiting. This is your only warning.

EDIT: Wait...how many warnings do you already have against your record? Wow.

he was on a roster by the cutoff date, so he is eligible to play for another team in the playoffs
