21.5 PPG, 5.1 RPG, 3.7 APG

This is a guy that guaranteed we'd make the playoffs the day he arrived on this team. People were concerned about his off the court demeanor and whether he would "talk too much" when he's been nothing but a leader in the locker room and the official mouthpiece of the team. Jax has provided a swagger and toughness that has helped Gerald Wallace become a better leader and has helped our team's focus on this playoff hunt. We got this guy for Vlad Rad & an injured Raja, which IMO is the biggest steal in the NBA this year. Just thought I'd make a thread recognizing Big Jax.

I approve of this thread. I had been trying to follow the Bobcats for a while (and get back into basketball really), and since Jackson's arrival, the Bobcats have a renewed energy.

They play a successful and fundamental team based game that's awesome and great to watch, and it all started to work when Jackson arrived through the trade. He's a great scorer, but he's really proven to be an awesome leader and he's really that piece that this team needed. Because we really had a great core of guys, but we were just missing the pure scorer.

I have been a skeptic of Jackson for a while, but I must admit that when he has an "on night", the Bobcats win it. Bottom line. He's streaky, and he's not going to hit 20 every night, but he will put up 30, 29, 12, 22, 10, 32 and lines like that. We just have to do a better job of picking him up when he goes cold.

I still think he shoots too much, but there aren't too many guys you'd rather have shoot on this team so kudos to Jack for his contributions this year.

Yeah, but even on a pass first team, you have to have a shoot first guy out there somewhere, and Jack is that guy.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By LegioX · Posted

      Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.

      If they lose the last three......

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two.

      Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
