somebody obviously never saw the UNC game

perrennial nba powerhouse, minnesota t-wolves, have released former hurricane guard, jack mcnasty.

when asked for comment, t-wolves coach kurt rambis said "it's unfortunate. it's a numbers game really. there's only so many roster spots. and we just don't have room for a guy who carries a largely talentless team on his back and goes toe to toe with the best team in the country. guys like that just aren't going to help this team live up to the storied history that our fans have come to expect from us."

You've got to be freaking kidding me!!!!!

Captain Jack is out in Minny? Please send him to my Pacers. I want a reason to care again! I even went to the WNBA Finals this week just to care about professional basketball in Indiana again. We need Jack’s help!

I hear

Europe calling Jack. Pick up the phone and go to work on what needs to improve. Going to work is what Jack does best

McClinton not in the NBA this year

is kind of ridiculous. And by “kind of,” I mean “really fucking.”

IDK about that Gangsta

Because while every team needs a great shooter (lost art) if that shooter is going to be an undersized 2 guard then he needs to be able to handle the ball effectively without turning it over (strike one for Jack) and play defense in spurts (strike 2 for Jack). Jack can certainly get better in both of those areas and I believe he will.

But if the worst team in the NBA doesn’t want to develop you then just go overseas and they certainly will. Plus, he’ll get acutal playing time while he’s working on his weaker areas.

Tim James is a good example. Six foot seven small forwards (who can’t shoot but can jump out of the gym) need to be able to handle the ball in the NBA (think Gerald Wallace). Tim never learned to do that and it was part of his downfall too.

Jack won’t end up like that as long as he just works on his game a lil bit.

I feel you

But when you step in the arena, and you’re good from the concession stand? That dude should be in the league. Mike Penberthy (Who?) won a ring with the Lakers. I’m just saying:)
