Stephen Jackson Requests Trade


Warriors' SF Stephen Jackson told Dime Magazine that he has requested a trade from the Golden State Warriors. Jackson wants to be traded the Cavs, or any of the three Texas teams (Dallas Mavericks, Houston Rockets, San Antonio Spurs).

"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."

Jackson's 20.7 PPG would be very attractive if not for his past disciplinary issues. I'm sure one of those teams would be more than happy to take Jackson, despite his problem image.
