I have to disagree with this. He's not exciting to watch even if he were to score 30 points. The dude is just frustrating to watch. A point guard who passes for shit. If he wants to be effective, he should use his speed to pull defenders in the lane and kick the ball out. He's too little to run in and expect to get a good look without being blocked or manhandled. And DAMNIT, I want the Pacers to make the playoffs this year. Maybe someone will pay off the refs with dinner or something. “When he’s on, he’s one of the most exciting and explosive guards in the NBA and arguably the fastest player in the League.”

He was getting to lane at will and setting up teamates for easy shots and dunks. It's stupid that he doesn't make that the focal point of his game in the pros. He can be one of best set up guys in thr legue if he just stopped looking for his own shot so much.

To his credit he's still playing but not the way you expect him to. . . The mental factor could be a part of it when he's always looking around for his saftey and team mates, things could get challenging. . . We had him in toronto, there was a point where he was amazing, beat any guy off the dribble and then shoot floaters . . . Okay the man had a serious career ending injury . . .

He already gets what it takes to be PG, he's just not a consistent enough scorer to stay on the floor and too small defensively. That was an unfair jab at Sebastian.

When you get rid of someone to make someone else feel "secure" in doing a job that they can't/won't do in the 1st place, you're asking to be in a world of shit. Granted, Jarrett fucks around with the ball too, but you'll go further with him than you would with T.J.. Dominique was right in terms of saying that T.J.'s talented but he's in the way defensively and sabotages the offense. He's just another mini baller born in the Iverson/And 1 generation. Cats like that figure just because they're small it means that they should have the freedom to do their thing rather than win. The Pacers made a huge mistake by trading Jarrett Jack.

Wasn't it just a short while ago that everyone was bashing Toronto for letting him go? Funny how suddenly a lot of people aren’t giving any love to TJ.

Good luck with that, after being out of the L for a year. They waived him, and he’s currently refusing anything but a guaranteed contract. Good luck with that, after being out of the L for a year.
