Mark Jackson also just signed a 3-year, $9 million contract. That is why the
Nuggets dumped him...for salary cap room. He will still be taking up $3
million in cap space in 1999 at the age of 35. The Pacers are welcome to him,
as far as I am concerned. The Celtics already have too many overpaid players.
