Stephen Jackson is done with the Warriors. In an interview with Dime Magazine, Jackson stated: "At this point, I'm 31 years old. I have four or five years left. "I want to be in a situation where I can continually be in the playoffs and get another ring. So that's where my mind is at now."
Ok, I get it so far.
" Golden State Warriors forward Stephen Jackson says he has requested a trade and prefers to be dealt to the Cleveland Cavaliers or any of the NBA's three teams in Texas."
All right, he's on the border of being a ring-chaser, but it could be worse.
Jackson said he would be open to returning to the Spurs but would also welcome a trade to the Dallas Mavericks or Houston Rockets.
Ummm...
He also mentioned Al Harrington's New York Knicks.
Wait. I think its safe to say that Stephen Jackson officially has Athlete's Alzheimer's. It's also safe to say that that was witty alliteration. I can allow Dallas, as Cuban is trying to make moves. But Houston is in a bit of a quandry and the Knicks are...well, the Knicks. I'm more likely to win a championship for "Most Irrelevant Blog" before New York wins anything other than Spike Lee's disdain. What's next, Stephen? You want to be traded for a few more million because you are worried about your family? I know, it must be rough eating Prime Rib on authentic China and then using the dishes as hockey pucks because, hey, you can afford it.
It's like the great Red Auerbach said, "Shut the fuck up." Or maybe that was Young Jeezy, they are so easily confused. Much like you when it comes to the term "contender."
