Stephen Jackson is frustrated after his DNP-CD on Monday, but has not requested a trade, according to Hoopsworld's Alex Kennedy. Jackson has been suspended by both the league and the Bucks for two games this season, and could be looking at another DNP-CD on Wednesday. Just park him on your bench until this shakes out, as a trade could be coming. And if you can grab Mike Dunleavy, he is playing well and should benefit as long as Jackson is sitting in Scott Skiles' doghouse.
Update:

Scott Skiles and Stephen Jackson had a "good conversation" prior to Wednesday's win over the Heat.
Jackson got back in the rotation on Wednesday night, playing nine minutes. The fact remains that right now, the Bucks are playing better basketball when Jackson is on the bench. In games he's played nine minutes or less this year, they are 4-0. In all other games, they are 6-11. A trade is an ideal outcome here, but one doesn't appear imminent. Feb. 2 - 2:11 pm et

Report: Stephen Jackson, Scott Skiles are pretty much done with each other

After Stephen Jackson was benched for the second half of a game against Denver Jan. 17, I asked the Bucks veteran swingman whether he had any inkling Bucks coach Scott Skiles was going to do that.

Jackson said he didn’t get any advance warning and he didn’t get any explanation after the game, either.

It was abundantly clear even then that Jackson, whom the Bucks acquired from Charlotte last June and was expected to be a key piece to the Bucks’ puzzle this season, wasn’t on the same page with Skiles.

Now, a month later, Jackson’s relationship with Skiles seemingly has disintegrated. In an interview with Rod Burks of Channel 4 (NBC) in Milwaukee, Jackson said: “We don’t have no relationship like I’ve had with other coaches and I don’t expect to have one. Too much stuff has happened.”

Woelful goes on to say that the Bucks would love to unload Jackson, but Jackson’s advanced age, high salary, and low productivity could make that a challenge. Still, the Bucks could send away a talented young player, such as Irsan Ilyasova or even Brandon Jennings, as part of a package deal that would allow the Bucks to unload Jackson, according to “some NBA officials.”

Jackson can create his own shot, pass well, is famously quite fond of pressure, and was a key part of the Golden State Warriors’ thrilling 2007 playoff run. Still, Jackson is 33 years old, and he hasn’t shot better than 42% from the field since the 06-07 campaign in Golden State. A playoff team might be willing to take a flyer on Jackson, but given his years of low efficiency and the baggage he’s currently carrying with him, Skiles and the Bucks might be stuck with Jackson for the foreseeable future.
