We do need to have a veteran at every spot, but we already have them in Lee and Bogans, plus Green and Wallace.  Jackson wouldn't add much more than any of those at this point in his career.

And he's not exactly a pro role model for the other guys, either.

Jackson would be a solid deep rotation player on a winner, but a team rebuilding has no room for a guy like him.

Jackson is probably most useful to a team with stupid fans who have a veteran fetish, so that they can sell more tickets to idiots who can be fooled into thinking their bad team isn't actually bad because "Hey, I know that guy!"

I say sign Jackson and let him split point guard duties with Jordan Crawford 50/50. That should assure the Cs of a top 3 pick.

At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

Yeah, not to seem like the constant Stephen Jackson defender, But I can certainly understand getting upset and wanting to choke a dude out if he was constantly trying to press his penis to the back of my head. I'm with hin on this one.  :)
