Wow, the Warriors look like genius's for that midseason trade right about now don't they? No team this year made a trade that substituted players that didn't fit the system for players that did fit the system better. Without that trade this would not be happening right now. Chris Mullin made a hell of a move.
yeah, I never got what the hell the media was thinking when so many people said the warriors got the bad end of the trade.
Yup, total steal for Golden State.Sometimes I wonder what the heck Larry Bird and Donny Walsh were thinking. Then I remeber they probably weren't thinking at all.
Well you guys got rid of Stephen Jackson and I think got a good player for the future in Diogu. It did benefit Golden State a lot more, but getting rid of Jackson was good for the Pacers and now they can continue the rebuilding process.
<span style="font-family:Arial">Stephen Jackson has always been pretty underrated in my opinion. His great talent has been overshadowed by his attitude while he was with the Pacers. Jackson and Harrington gave the Warriors a much needed swagger, the whole team plays with great chemistry.He has been incredible in the playoffs for Golden State. </span>
Jackson and Harrington has played well since going to Golden State, and I haven't heard much trouble from them either. Golden State is playing well in the playoffs as well. Hopefully they can beat the Mavs. I want them to win so badly.
Jackson was a pretty consistint scorer while in Atlanta, I think he's back in that type of form as a player now which is a good sign.
Personaly, I felt the Pacers got the better end of the deal because of them getting Diogue...I think hes going to be pretty good. But it seems that GS got the better of the deal....atleast right now.

I think he right now, at the pace he's going, he's going to be a nice low post scorer and that's about it.

He shoots so well, has a very wide arsenal of moves, seems to want every rebound, and his defense is there. He just needs to break out of his foul habits and needs some playing time (Another reason to get rid of JO) and he could be a very good player.
