First of all, any player who goes 4 for 23 deserves ridicule, especially a player who consistently shoots a horrid percentage. Jason Terry is in the same position as Stackhouse, the only reliable scorer on a bad team, and he does not run around jacking up bad shots. On the Hawks recent 5-game West Coast road trip, Terry scored 25.5 ppg with a FG% of 46%. Jerry has a long history of moronic behavior. 1. He questioned Jerome Williams' heart. LOL! Jerome plays as hard as anybody in the NBA. 2. He said that Grant Hill shot too much. Grant's biggest fault has always been shooting too little. Several coaches in the league openly laughed at Stackhouse for this statement. 3. He taunted Lindsay Hunter recently, questioning why Hunter had started ahead of him years ago. Hunter clearly earned those minutes. 4. Trying to start a fistfight with Laettner on the team plane, 10,000 feet in the air. Besides, I'd rather have Jerry than Grant<g You've said this before and it is ridiculous. Stackhouse is a gunner, Hill is a superstar. Last year against the Heat, when Hill was out and the Pistons needed points, Stackhouse couldn't produce. He couldn't beat Majerle off the dribble. He would get a half-step (at best) on him and couldn't get to the basket before help arrived. He did a lot of whining though, but the fouls he was begging for did not exist. When Grant was still playing on his broken ankle (he could barely walk), he was still beating people cleanly and getting layups. As far as team play, it is not even close. Grant Hill wants to support his teammates and make them better. Stackhouse is jealous of his teammates. That is why the Sixers dumped him. Tom
