so ur saying jax wont be able to score in the flow? dude he be playing different on the spurs than that thats played down in oakland....spurs dont have time for chuckers
What? You put RMJ and Finley together, you still only get a sharpshooter who is weak on defense. Same goes for Bonner. The only guy left is Jefferson who does things like score within the flow of an offense which is what Stephen Jackson is not accustomed to doing.

We got no time for Jax if he continues to shoot that miserable 40% from the field even while he was on the Spurs.
Nine months ago:
"I'm extremely happy," Jackson said. "The Bay Area has become my second home since I arrived here in 2007 and I can't accurately describe how good it feels to be wanted and appreciated by an organization. The Warriors from Chris Cohan, Robert Rowell, Chris Mullin and Coach Nelson to the last person working in the front office have embraced me since day one. This organization has put me in a position to succeed and, for that, I will be forever grateful. I am really looking forward to the next several years, helping this young team win and providing my veteran leadership."

GS's FO is so screwed up any deal is possible. They seem to disregard any idea of team chemistry. Nelson should have retired as a coach a decade ago. He doesn't have a clue how to improve his team or its players. It is also ironic that he played off the bench for the Celtics and understood the role of role players. Finley, Mason and Bonner for SJ. Do it. We can always trade Jackson back another idiot franchise.
Stephen Jackson is one of the top 10 clutch playoff performers in the NBA. You put up with his bad ball handling and 40% overall shooting because you KNOW he's going to go Shock and Awe on a couple of teams in your playoff run. Take that to the bank.
Id trade Bonner and Mason for Jax too but we all know it aint gonna happen so lets all just stfu and enjoy our team as it is.
It will be awesome to pay a 35 years old SJax $10M in 2012-2013 while Spurs will likely need as much capspace as possible to build a new team.![]()
I officially predict that Richard Jefferson will wildly overachieve in the Spurs system. He is Sean Luck_The_Fakers_Luck_The_Fakers_Luck_The_Fakers_Lu ck_The_Fakers_Luck_The_Fakers_Luck_The_Fakers_'s clone. His overall scoring may go down but there will be those nites when he carries the team in scoring. He will improve our running game and will be an improvement on defense. This Jackson thing is all about will he accept a lesser role on a superior team since his career has been defined by being a prime player on inferior teams.
Mason + Finley + Bonner works for Jax. As they're all expirings also it's not a horrible deal for the Warriors. But the Spurs have an unproven frontcourt and if they trade off all their assets (as well as a semi-proven big in Bonner) now then they could be hurting later if/when Mahinmi/Haislip/Blair bust and Duncan/Ratliff/McDyess break down.
Don't understand my last mispost. What I wrote was that RJ was a Sean Luck_The_Fakers_Luck_The_Fakers_Luck_The_Fakers_Lu ck_The_Fakers_Luck_The_Fakers_Luck_The_Fakers_ clone. How that LUCK stuff got in there I don't know.
you mispelled
Elliott
no worries ....
stupid
a big man is needed here, not a SG
Parker
Jackson
Jefferson
Mcdyess
Duncan
Now thats a defensive lineup....Pop needs to get that defensive mentallity back.
Defense > Offense
is there any chance of this happening...?
i would like to find a way to keep hill for sure if it does and mason if possible...because we wont have much proven gaurd depth if we git rid of finley and mason
I always find it funny how 90% of foreigners can't stand SJax, and 90% of americans still weep for the day we let him walk.
This why it won't happen. Spurs are betting on RJ and Haislip to be the defenders.
Trade chip in 2012. He'd be an ending contract for a team looking to rebuild in 2013. Why be so afraid of a 35 YO Jax, anyway? It's not like he's ultra quick or a high wire act. He's an assassin with a ultra clutch jumpshot. , Horry was tearing it up for us at 35.
UGH!!! we got nothin to give so everyone "stfu"![]()
Cap space >>>>>>>>>>>>>> expiring contract to rebuild.
And the Horry comparison is a bad one. Jackson isn't close to Horry clutchness and doesn't play the same position. If you want to have an idea about Jackson level at 35, look at what Finley has done this year.
weird but true... any explanation doctor?
Steven Jackson is ultra- ing clutch. His problem is he hasn't done a good job of picking teams to play on like Horry did. He's only been to one Finals, but you apparently haven't watched the videos in a while. Go pop game 6 of the 2003 Finals in your DVD player and watch him. I'd match that against Horry any day.
The Finley comparision is a bad one. Mike has never really been a consistent clutch performer in the playoffs. If you really want to see the difference, pop game 6 of the Dallas 2003 series in your DVD player. The difference will become plain to see. Jack has consistently been able to shoot his teams out of 8-10 point holes in playoff games throughout his career. That's a gift. I can remember Finley hitting one shot against Phoenix and having one good high volume game against Denver, and that's it for playoff moxie in 4 years.
Stephen Jackson is a prime time player, and you have to pay for that. You also have to put yourself in the best position to take advantage of Tim's last 3 years, and the time after that be damned. Worry about later LATER.
