Stephen Jackson: The undersung star


SOJA

Recommended Posts

I honestly wouldn't mind trading Jackson if the circumstances were right and it led us to getting another scorer with upside. I like him and he plays good defense but he takes a ton of stupid shots, just over and over when he's off. However, we wouldn't be in the playoffs without him.

STOP!!! Jax was brought here to take shots and to be this team's go to scorer. he has done his job more games than he hasn't and is the ultimate competitor. the nba is not full of players who play both ends of the floor with equal effort much less ability so we should consider ourselves fortunate to have Jax on our team. we should also remember that he has been on this team for such a short time that he and his teamates haven,t had enough timne to really get to know each other the way other playoff teams have and he is still learning how to mesh his game with what LB expects and needs him to do.

Nice write up by Ms.Hill. Jax has been a great addition to this franchise. He's proven himself to be an exceptional teammate and leader. He's a very articulate young man and not the "thug" persona his actions in Detroit in '04 might've led many to believe.

the worst thing about his off court problems is that he doesn't get credit for being as good of player as he is

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
