I agree, I think the Raptors is a team where his skills can really fit well, and if he feels secure it will get him comfortable and playing without being scared of making mistakes.
I think this will rejuvenate his career and he will be able to become the player everyone thought he would be...hopefully
He had a bit of and offensive explosion you could say agaisnt miami one game 10 points. A big dunk and some 3 pointers. I like him. Now hes over the injuries will be a good addition.
^ Yes, he can play for the playoffs. I think if he was signed to another team after the trade deadline, then he would be ineligible. But since this was his first team after the deadline, he's allowed.
Other than his first game, Jackson has been somewhat of a disappointment so far. He had a great opportunity tonight and he ended up with 3 points 36 minutes. Hopefully he can pick it up.
Yep. His main problem so far has been hesitancy. He doesn't shoot all the time and is much more comfortable passing the ball away than looking for his own shot. I mean, he played like 36 minutes last night and only shot the ball 6 times. I think he'll really benefit from going through training camp with this team.
I think we signed him because Bryan Colangelo wants to use him as trade bait, so we can get a draft pick since we don't have any picks.
