He did a good job turning a bad situation into a good one, but it's not like Jackson was garbage. He traded a guy that turned down 4/$48 because he knows he can get more.



locker room cancer if he were to stay on the team. I didn't mean it like a true cancer.

He wanted out, especially after getting his minutes cut for Waiters and pretty much being dangled most of the season. We all know he wasn't going to stay with OKC past this year with the chance to shine in Westbrook/KD's absence and he played relatively well.

OKC turned lead into gold with that trade because they were getting nothing from Perkins any longer and Jackson was gonna leave for free anyway.

I don't know how kanter will work on that team

He's a high usage center that like to score and take jumpers and he's not a great defender.

I get what you're saying but when you say it you are dismissing Jackson's market value. They turned a valuable starting caliber player into, honestly I don't know what because I still haven't seen the details of the trade and who trade what to whom for what. Utah got more from OKC than Perkins for Kanter and Novak didn't they? If not that's your magic trade, not Reggie Jackson for 3 bench players.
