Cut Roberts and Sign Pierre Jackson

Following a nice collegiate career at Baylor, Pierre Jackson has since gone on to tear up the NBA D-League. Averaging just under 31 points through eight contests (on 46% from the field and 43% from deep), to go along with 5 assists, 4.3 rebounds, and an even more impressive 2.4 steals, the Idaho Stampede guard has appeared rather dominant all season long.
quote:
This past summer, Jackson was drafted as the 42nd overall pick in the 2013 NBA Draft by the Philadelphia 76ers. Though his rights were soon after traded to the New Orleans Pelicans, Jackson never went on to sign a contract with the team for the coming (this) season. Instead, he participated in NBA Summer League with New Orleans, and then signed a contract to play overseas.
But instead of going on to play in France, Jackson returned home. Soon after, he was drafted in the first round of the D-League Draft by the Stampede, and the rest is history, as they say.
What all this means or amounts to, however, is that Jackson can only be called up by the Pelicans this season. With the likes of Jrue Holiday, Brian Roberts, and even sixth man Tyreke Evans manning the point guard position in New Orleans, such a promotion wouldn't appear to be in the cards for Jackson.

I'd rather play 40 minutes a game of dleague ball and get his shite together, than 1.7mpg riding the Pels pine

I agree with signing Jackson. We aren't going anywhere this year w/o a legit big anyway. Might as well do some experimentation.

At least try and develop another trade piece, at worst.
Roberts is maxed out. Teams have seen him. No one wants him
