Jazz should try and get Stephen Jackson

I don't have a name in mind, but I'll bet that there are a ton of guys who could shoot the ball lights out , but are a bit undersized to play SG by NBA standards, that could be found real cheap from other leagues to come on a team as a 12th man, just for the scenario that OP mentioned.
 
Seriously, this couldn't be further from the truth.

THIS. Seriously, anyone knocking SJax is either dumb or misinformed. The guy has made all his teams better, has been praised by most of his coaches, has the type of mindset, skills and body we need, and was very big if I remember correctly in the Spurs one title year, hitting many big shots.

On the other hand, I can see why you'd want to hang on to Memo. He is gonna get us over the top.
 
Jackson would be a perfect fit because of his shooting.

Williams/Jackson/Kirelenko/Milsap/Jefferson

That's probably the 2nd best starting lineup in the West.
 
He did pretty well for the Spurs. I mean, he did help them win a ring, so he can't be too bad.

Maybe we should start up another threat talking about trading for Maggette? It's been a few weeks...
 
I hate Jackson, he reminds me of Kenyon Martin's long lost punk thug brother. BUT, Id take him cuz he is better than what we have at the moment.
 

If Iguodala was worth keeping, he wouldn't be available. It cannot be stressed enough how paramount it is for a perimeter player to be able to shoot, especially on a team that isn't exactly bursting with shooters.

Trade Hayward (and whatever misc) for Jason Thompson, and trade Memo (and whatever misc) for Jackson. If it could be done, the Jazz do nothing but add legit players since Hayward can't get off the bench and Memo's injured. But that's exactly it, isn't it.

But whatever, with the sensitivity to chemistry this team has, I'm not going to sweat such bullsh.
 
How the **** is Stephen Jackson not a coachable player? Seriously, Tim Duncan considers him the ultimate teammate, and his previous coaches have gushed about him.

Larry Brown doesn't like him though, it seems, and so maybe he's available. He's old, his contract isn't great, and they have a need for offensive frontcourt players. That's why they may have interest in Memo (certainly more than Indiana...).

And Josh Smith? Gerald Wallace? Steph Curry? OJ Mayo? The Jazz would have to gut their team to get these guys.

I think Stephen Jackson is attainable and, if it's for Memo+, well worth trying to get.

Lol someone said we could get OJ Mayo or Stephen Curry as if we got those assets to give up.

Life is not NBA 2k. Im suprised GVC gave his two cents to whoever told him that.
