Jarrett Jack getting his shot ...

After last night's 82-77 loss to the Utah Jazz, Sebastian Telfair announced he is going on the inactive list with a torn ligament in his thumb. This means that Jarrett Jack will be the new starter for the Trailblazers for at least a couple of weeks, and will have a chance to play serious minutes and show what he can do. It's always unfortunate to have an opportunity because of an injury to someone else, but this is a great chance for Jack.
