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

    • These are the three deep throw attempts that Will Levis made in week 12. His first one is a beauty; Levis and Westbrook-Ikhine gets the safety to bite on a deep dig only to go over the top for the score. His second throw is another beauty: a crosser to Calvin Ridley reminiscent of Bryce to XL (though Ridley has noticeably more separation on his route). His third and final deep shot was an incompletion from his own endzone on 3rd & 14 with pressure coming down on him (to me, this seems like a solid throw).   Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-02.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Levis took half of the deep shots that Young did. The differences are: Ridley had much better separation than XL, which is why his deep crosser turned into a 63yd play since he was able to scamper for another 15+ after the catch. Westbrook-Ikhine holds on to his TD pass. Bryce had to throw one away to preserve time for a field goal. Bryce had two more throws that were incomplete due to the WR Are we really holding the three WR errors and clock management decision against Bryce in order to say that Will was better throwing deep in week 12? That's not passing the eye test nor is it confirmed by the data.
    • If you go on the PUP list before the season starts, you are gone for the year. If you start the year on the PUP list then you can get off of it. Kind of semantics, but we are putting him on the PUP list now which is before week 1, that’s why people who come off of it aren’t really on the PUP list until week 1, hence you usually hear right before the season that they are “starting the year” on the PUP list. I think PUP list and IR may basically be the serve the same purpose now because you also sometimes hear that if a player is added to the IR before week 1 that they aren’t eligible to come off the IR list for the entire year. Now, everyone added to IR (post week 1) can come off after 4 (or more) games so the PUP list is meaningless since it’s 6 games and starts at week 1. Anyone added to PUP or IR in the preseason is gone for the year.
    • I saw Brooks maybe a few weeks ago, he was walking pretty normally. of course he wasnt running, jumping and cutting.
