NBA: Stephen Jackson, Good Samaritan or BETTER Samaritan?

Just read on http://www.espn.com/ that Stephen Jackson, formerly of the Pacers, testified to firing his gun for the purpose of breaking up a brawl during the October 6th nightclub incident in which he was also hit by a car. This is a prime example as to why there should be no sports franchises in hollow, boring cities like Indianapolis or Cincinnati. If Stephen Jackson played for the Knicks or Nets he would have been at the 40/40 club snuggling with one of the girls from America's Next Top Model and giving Ray J props for peeing on Kim Kardashian. He most definitely would not be getting run over by 23 year old fake gangbangers from Indianapolis.

And that's the problem with this country. There are too many boring and useless cities. I say we dissolve their municipal governments, fence off the cities and their surrounding suburbs, and watch them slowly disintegrate. Hartford should come first as insurance companies and the Hartford Civic Center are both the work of Satan. If all goes well there we can move to Minneapolis, Bismarck, and possibly Des Moines for good measure. As for Stephen Jackson, he's with the Golden State Warriors now. And we all know nothing bad can happen in Oakland...


If Stephen Jackson played for the Knicks, they'd finally have someone that can play the shooting guard position. Oh wait, they have eight of those.

If Stephen Jackson played for the Nets, management would do whatever they could to make sure he and Marcus Williams never made eye contact. No mobile device would be safe.

Go ahead, give me more teams. Stephen Jackson would be a disaster anywhere. The Pacers definitely pulled off addition by subtraction when trading him to Golden State. Larry Legend works his magic again. Now only if Danny Ainge could convince him to coach the Celtics next year...


Dude, you're missing the point.
