    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -- Trail Blazers guard Jarrett Jack sustained a concussion in a car accident and was out of action for Friday night's game against the Sacramento Kings. The team said Jack did not have any other injuries, and released no other details about the morning accident outside Portland's practice facility in Tualatin. Jack leads the team with 5.5 assists and 1.2 steals a game.</div>That's too bad. I really like Jarrett Jack. He has good shooting range, he's a good passer. He's going to be a good starting PG down the road.

    Yeah, I have been a big fan of Jack since his last year at Georgia Tech. He was a guy that I really wanted the Celtics to get in the 05 draft, until Gerald Green slipped to 18. He's going to be in the league for a long time, and he's a good young point guard. He plays under solid control, he can hit the open jumpers, he can penetrate, he's a good playmaker, and he brings a lot of defensive intensity.

    But it sucks that he got in a car accident. I hope gets well soon.

    I love Jack. He plays with so much control. Good thing he doesn't play football or this would be more serious.

    I was a big fan of Jack and thought he was underrated during the draft...and underrated now...He's the future at PG...he's great because he doesn't need to dominate the ball on offense. Love the guy, big and tough...he has a big head...hopefully he gets over it quickly.
