Absolutely not.  Batman has been an unsung hero this season and I sure don't 
want to see the only shot blocker this team has as well as a talented rook go 
out the door for a 27 year old guy that was a second round pick and had to 
play in Europe to develop enough just to get to the NBA. 

Don't get me wrong, I'm not at all opposed to trying to acquire Jackson. I 
just wouldn't want to see the C's give up this much for him. Not to mention 
the fact that GS has been very clear they want an expiring contract and a 
draft pick; not two more contracts that carry over to next year and beyond.

Rumor has Brad Miller and Ron Artest going to Indiana for Jalen Rose.

Supposedly Golden State nixed a trade with Phoenix for Mark Jackson and
Jackson ripped Gary St. jean and was suspended for 2 games. Fortson ripped
them also for being too soft.

The Suns reportedly are offering a first-round draft pick and a player, most
likely forward John Wallace. Toney Battie & Forte for Jackson?

Colangelo said he thought he had answered all of the Warriors demands for a
deal and was "stumped" as to why the two teams couldn't reach an agreement.

Jackson has the right under NBA rules to void any trade the Warriors make with
him for one year because he signed an offer sheet as a restricted free agent
with Houston, and the Warriors matched the offer in October
