SG/SF
Jerry Stackhouse (1st season with Hawks/17th
season overall)
Age:
37
Draft
History: 3rd pick in 1995 by Philadelphia
Acquired:
Signed as free agent December 2011
2012
Salary: $1.35 Million
2013
Contract Status: Free agent
2012
Regular Season Grade: C
Grade
Explanation: Veteran hanging on signed for minimum
salary to be 12th man, good mentor for younger players. Always ready
to go when called upon, but played sparingly, usually in garbage time. Great
season shooting FT’s. Had minimal impact, but also minimal expectations and minimal
cost. Deserves passing grade.
Overall:
For someone my age who loves sports, it’s kinda weird to see Stack as one of
the old men of the league, willing to hang around as a 12th man just
because he loves the game and it’s all he knows. I mean, I was in junior high
when Stack and Rasheed were young stars for Dean Smith at UNC. I don’t really
know why this sort of thing stands out so much with Stackhouse in particular. I
think it’s because I just remember those years of my life so clearly,
particularly in terms of what was going on in the sporting world.
And it’s weird to see
this guy, who was a freakish athlete back then, be unable to get any sort of
meaningful playing time with the Atlanta Hawks now. It’s weird to see a guy who
seemed so young and raw when he came out of UNC, be considered most valuable
now as some sort of team wise man.
To be honest, I was
actually a little disappointed that Stackhouse didn’t play more than he did. Maybe I’m crazy, but it was
fun to watch him during his few opportunities to play when the outcome wasn’t
yet decided. I guess he just didn’t have anything left.
Stackhouse played in 30
of 66 games, all off the bench, averaging just 9.1 MPG. He shot .370/.342/.943
and averaged 3.6 P/G, 0.8 R/G, 0.5 A/G, 0.3 S/G, and 0.1 B/G with 0.4 TOV/G. In
his very limited playing time Stack didn’t have good +/- or ON/OFF numbers. He
played just 8% of the team’s total minutes, but when he was on the floor the
Hawks were less efficient offensively and more efficient on defense.
Stackhouse actually
played 4 different positions (PG, SG, SF, PF) at one point or another during
the year. He played just a handful of possessions at PG and PF, with almost all
of his playing time coming at SG or SF. Technically, Stack actually spent
slightly less time at SG than SF. That was a surprise to me. Most of Stack’s
production came when he was playing the 2. Anyway, I was even more surprised to
learn that overall Stack out-produced his main counterpart when on the floor
this season.
Stackhouse played only
2% of the Hawks CLUTCH minutes this season. He actually did okay, going 4 for 4
from the line in CLUTCH, with a +/- number of +6 during CLUTCH.
The Hawks signed Stack
when they knew they were short on guards, but I think it was more about his
leadership and presence. I think they signed him knowing he wasn’t going to
have much of an impact at all on the court, but thinking he could have a
positive impact as an elder teammate.
This was quite possibly
the last we’ll see of Jerry Stackhouse in the Association. Last year Stackhouse
signed with the Miami Heat and made the team out of camp. He played a total of
50 minutes, appearing in 7 of the first 14 games (even making a start), but was
waived a month into the season.
I love that after being
let go by the glamour Heat—who he must have thought had a great chance of
winning a title—and being out of basketball for the rest of last year, he still
wanted to come back. Not only did he come back, he signed with the Hawks—a team
with no realistic shot at a championship—and had to make the team once again,
knowing that he was unlikely to have much of an on-court role even if he made
the cut. If this was Stack’s last season, I’m glad it was with our team.
Statistics:
One
reason I’m glad Stack came back is that it would have sucked for him to play in
just 7 games in his final season. Even though he played sparingly for the
Hawks, he obviously had a much better year in every way than he did last year.
Another neat thing was his excellent year at the FT line. Outside of 2007-2008
when he went 7 for 7 at the line all year, Stack had his best FT% ever this
season, going 25 of 27 at the line to shoot .913.

Season
Review: Stackhouse played 6 minutes in the Hawks blowout win
over the Nets in the season opener, and then did not play in the next 7 games.
He played in 8 of 18 games in January, averaging 5.3 MPG. He got into just 4 of
13 games in February, playing 8.5 MPG. Through the month of February, Stack had
played in just 13 of 35 games, averaging 6.3 MPG and 3.2 P/G.
He appeared in over
half of the Hawks games in March and his playing time also increased. He played
in 11 of 19 games during the month, averaging 12.4 MPG and 4.5 P/G. He got into
half of April’s games as well, appearing in 6 of 12, and playing 9.0 MPG while
averaging 3.0 P/G. During the final 2 months of the season, Stack played in 17
of 31 games, averaging 11.2 MPG and 3.9 P/G.
Not surprisingly, as
Stack’s minutes increased his numbers were not as good. But he was always ready
to go when called upon. While it may sound cheesy, end of the bench players
were more important than usual this season with the jam-packed schedule.
Stack played in 18 of
the team’s 40 wins (45.0%), averaging 9.1 MPG and 3.3 P/G. He played in 12 of
the team’s 26 losses (46.2%), averaging 9.2 MPG and 4.0 P/G.
2012
Postseason Grade: C
Grade
Explanation: Stack was dressed out for the first 3
games of the series but never appeared in any of the games. He was deactivated before
game 4 to make room for Al and remained in street clothes for the rest of the series.
He did not play a single second of basketball for the Hawks during the playoffs,
but he was available, so I have to give him a passing grade.
Statistics:
NA
(Did not play at all in the playoffs)
Postseason
Review: Stackhouse was active during the first 3 games but
did not play. He was in street clothes and off the active roster for the final
3 games after Al Horford was activated.
Going
Forward: I doubt the Hawks will bring back Stack for another
year just to be a kind of mentor to the younger guys. If Stackhouse wants to
play again some team may give him a shot, but I think it’s more likely that his
career in the NBA is at an end.
