Y!> Warriors anxious to part ways with Jackson

* "The Jax situation is a constant distraction," one Warrior said. "Once they trade him," another player said, "it will clear up a lot of things."

* "I’m aware the team needs a change," Golden State general manager Larry Riley said. "I’m working hard toward that."

* "If it’s soon, I’m ready," Jackson told Yahoo! Sports after Monday’s game. "Can’t do nothing but be ready. I asked for it as long as it’s the right situation for me and it’s not done out of spite. I’ve done a lot for this team and this organization and I hope the respect stays the same way. If it does happen, I hope it’s somewhere where I want to be."

* Jackson said he didn’t agree with his agent’s complaints about Nelson. "I can’t take any blame for that," Jackson told reporters after the game. "He was upset with some things and he spoke his mind. We work good together because we both speak our minds. But I would never bash Coach in the paper like that. I never have. I got a lot of respect for Coach, and I’ll never do something like that."

Df,man. I dont think it is happening for jax In San Antone. That contract is way too bad.

...Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is forty five.

Agreed, bad contract.

[I know I post a lot of the Jackson articles. I’m not trying to launch some ‘Bring Jax to SA’ campaign here on PTR, it’s just an ongoing story that intrigues me. ;) ]
