Nobody:

Is this people preferring to play alongside George and Leonard than Lebron? I can certainly see the appeal given how quiet those two are compared to him. Not that I think Jackson is some great player, but Lakers probably could have used him more.

No idea.

Maybe Jackson has some familiarity with Doc from his time at BC when Doc was coaching the Celtics.

I don't see the fit there. Why do LAC want more shot takers? Guys will take the ball out of PG13's and Kawhi's hands?

Lou Williams is a high volume enough guard to have off the bench already. Plus they have Harrell. And are trying to fit in Marcus Morris. And now Reggie Jackson on top of it ... greed more than necessity. Might cause more problems than he solves.

Lakers could've definitely used him a lot more.

Weak-ass defender for most of his career.  Maybe he’ll try now that he’s out of Detroit, but I doubt it.  Also potentially a locker room issue.  He could disrupt that team if he doesn’t get his numbers.

There is real upside there, but it centers on Jackson being something he hasn’t been for his whole career.  Happy to let somebody else take that chance.

I like this because I want Davis and LeBron to come up empty in LA!

This is 100% how I feel.

I was going to say this was not a good take from you Tr1boy lol. Boston is definitely considered to some, an attractive NBA destination.

It's why we brought in Horford, Kemba, and Hayward lol.

Part if it may be that he wants a ring, and the Clippers don't want the Lakers (or anyone else, for that matter) to get him
I'm bitter.
