The Brooklyn Nets have waived point guard Jarrett Jack, the team announced Thursday.The Nets tried to trade Jack but were unable to do so.They had a Thursday deadline on Jacks $6.3 million team option, of which just $500,000 was guaranteed.The Nets are on the hook for that $500,000 partial guarantee unless another team claims Jack off waivers. Brooklyn can stretch that $500,000 out over three seasons to save some additional cap space.The 32-year-old veteran averaged 12.8 points on 39.1 percent shooting in 32 games last year before his season was cut short by an injury to his right ACL.The rebuilding Nets have a need at point guard in free agency and are interested in Jeremy Lin, who is himself interested in the Nets, according to multiple sources. Lin developed into an overnight sensation in New York after working with then-Knicks assistant Kenny Atkinson, who is now the Nets head coach.Other point guards on the market include Mike Conley, Rajon Rondo and Brandon Jennings.Brooklyn has been linked to former NBA player Sergio Rodriguez, who has been playing for Real Madrid.

At that time, Baldwin called for all 50 state attorneys general to review policies and training policies for police and law enforcement to eliminate militaristic cultures while putting a higher emphasis on de-escalation tactics and crisis management measures.Since then, Baldwin has had talks with law enforcement in the Seattle area in the effort to gather information that he hopes can change how police officers are trained.Were being very strategic with the people that we meet with, Baldwin said. Again, we dont want this to become a political thing. Were really just trying to find solutions.Baldwin has become a focal point in the conversation regarding interactions with police. He appeared on two different national television shows last week during the Seahawks bye after first making his request last month. The Seattle Police Department confirmed to The Seattle Times last week that some if its personnel had met with Baldwin.Baldwin said the goal for now is coming up with suggestions and solutions that could lead to change in the state of Washington and then look at the potential for spreading that to a broader group, Baldwin said.We have a lot of data thats coming in, a lot of data that were being given from different sources in terms of the research that were trying to put together, and its very compelling, Baldwin said.dddddddddddd So were trying to build that here, utilize that as a tool, as a model here, and then be able to present that to the other 49 states.Baldwin said most eye-opening in his research has been learning about policies and training that dont fully protect police and put them in a challenging situation. He also noted the difference in how the idea and process of de-escalation is interpreted by law enforcement and by the public.They are placed in these situations sometimes because thats what theyre taught, thats how theyre trained. And then its turned around and they get in trouble or they get prosecuted or looked at in a negative light because of the training that theyve gone through, he said. Their job is a very difficult job, obviously. They put their lives on the line every time they go out onto the street. So I dont understand how were not giving our law enforcement more tools, more training, more resources to go out there and protect themselves and protect the communities that they serve and then ultimately protecting their reputation. I just dont understand how thats not a national effort to do that.---Online:AP NFL website: http://www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL coverage on Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
