Stephen Jackson to Charlotte
If you complain and annoy enough, they will trade you! It worked out for Stephen Jackson. His demands were finally answered, as the Golden State Warriors and the Charlotte Bobcats completed a trade on Monday that sent Stephen Jackson and Acie Law to the Bobcats, in exchange for Vladimir Radmanovic and Raja Bell.
Golden State was hoping to get much more, but they soon realized that the market value for Jackson was not as they expected. The trade would have happened weeks ago, had the Warriors not demanded that Charlotte includes Boris Diaw in the package, whom they did not want to give up.
Jackson originally wished to be traded to either San Antonio, Dallas, Houston, New York, or Cleveland, but according to sources, Jackson is not disappointed about ending up in Charlotte and is happy to be a Bobcat. Larry Brown certainly has the experience in dealing with difficult personalities. Having coached Allen Iverson, one could say Brown has earned a PhD in the field.
In his debut as a Bobcat on Monday, Jackson played 45 minutes and scored 13 points on 4-14 shooting from the field.
