Well Helloooo, Jarrett!

Pop the Champagne folks, we are two roster spots away from making some sort of noise in the east next season.

It’s official, the Pacers have decided not to match the offer the Raptors have made for Jarrett Jack. Jack, who is 25 years young, was a former teammate of our own Chris Bosh and is happy to rejoin him again:

"It took a minute, but I was able to secure a contract for four years," Jack said. "I'm looking forward to playing with Chris (Bosh) again. It will be like our freshman year (at Georgia Tech) all over again." (Indystar)

We finally got a back up PG that doesn't mind backing up and can actually start for some teams in the league. IF Jose, for some reason, misses a game or two, the team will not have to fret like they did all last season.

The Press Conference will be held tomorrow afternoon.

I find it funny, Jack and Ford have somewhat switched places. Luckily Jack is not like Ford and there shouldn't be problems with his role on the team, he understands this is Calderon's team to run. Good job again BC.

Next funny thing. So the Cavs stole AP, and now they have signed Jamario Moon to an offer sheet! Seriously! Remember when both AP and Moon were both starters for our team? Now Cleveland interested in both of them, but not as starters. Would this really keep Lebron in Cleveland? hmmm, I think that's the important thing here. We will wait and see.

Toronto Raptors at L.A. Clippers, 7:30 EST

Tonight our 'Redeem' Team will be going out west for a 2 game swing. First tonight in LA then Tuesday in Edmonton The Defenseless Nuggets. Sorry tonight's game wont be on TV, but you can listen, if your an All Access Member, on NBA.com. This will probably be another meaningless game, but if bored and you have nothing better to do listen. I listened to Cleveland game because it was the first, and I actually enjoyed it. According to NBA.com Elton Brand is still on the team.

Tonight we'll get to see (hear) our first glimpse of the new look Clippers, with their addition of Baron Davis and Marcus Camby. It funny how three guys on the team have the same last name but none are related. Anyways I expect this should be an easy (underestimating is goooood) win if the we play well. And for once I'm worried about the offense, especially if Willie Solomon transforms in to T.J. again. I'm sure He laughing at us right now. Some keys to winning this game:

• Defense, and I mean rotating and not getting lost. Plus help defense
• Offense. Simply put, we need to make our shots. Our starting 2, as much I love him, needs step up a little and prove that his age isn't getting the best of him.
• JO, he needs to show he's comfortable the team. His shot will take time, but we don't have time to wait for him to mesh
• Second Unit, they need to step up. Especially if they are the ones left in the game at the dying seconds.

Also, If you haven't heard, 23 of the regular season games will be showing on TSN2. Rogers currently doesn't have that channel in their cable program, or what ever you want to call it. It caused a tizzy in the last 3 days, but I heard they, Rogers, TSN2, etc, will be discussing this problem and it should be fixed in time. The first would have been in December so that should give them ample time.

Next. Jamario Moon should be stepping up. His last game game was a weak attempt at fighting for his spot. So if he really wants it back, he should have a good game tonight.
