This was a terrible trade, giving up Jefferson and a 1st round pick for Jackson??? The guy is so injury prone, and just as bad as Jefferson!!!
Terrible....
ding ding ding. Richard Jefferson has missed 2 games in the past 4.5 seasons. Stephen Jackson has missed 29 games the past 2 seasons alone. dude is unreliable.
and lets look at their stats the last 2 years:
Jefferson
10.1ppg, 3.7rpg, 45% FG, 43% 3ptFG, PER 11.8
Jackson
14.5ppg, 3.8rpg, 38%FG, 31% 3ptFG, PER 9.25
Stephen Jackson is exactly what the spurs don't need. a streaky scorer, who needs the ball in his hands, getting older and lazy on defense, less efficient, and hurts their salary cap next year more as they surely were going to amnesty Jefferson.
not what the spurs needed. They shouldve gone after DJ Augustin. something that actually could've helped.
