<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Marc Jackson bangs on the boards. He moves players in the paint who usually are as difficult to budge as concrete blocks. He communicates well with the other players on the floor, particularly at the defensive end. In other words, he can do everything that 76ers coach Randy Ayers likes. And the former Temple star needs to do those things this season if the Sixers have any designs on success. Jackson returned to his alma mater last night, taking the court at the Liacouras Center against the NBA champion San Antonio Spurs, even though he left Friday night's game against Washington when he aggravated the torn plantar fascia tissue in his left foot.</div> Full Story... He really is a great presence on our team, losing him to injury would hurt us a lot. Let's hope everything turns out good.
So much was made out of the Timberwolves getting the best player in the 3 way deal... but in esscence, the Sixers might have gotten the best deal... Grob AND Marc Jackson... who actually played extremely well against the Lakers last postseason...
