Thank You Stephen Jackson

[cd98]

Stephen Jackson IS a quality player.

Period.

He is a quality player. But he's 35 years old. If you want to build for the future, he's the perfect piece. Lots of teams will trade young talent for expirings given new luxury tax.

The extra cap space after next year won't be worth much bc it's hard to sign superstar free agents to come play in SA, especially when the team is close to rebuilding.

I like what Jackson did for us but he only makes sense if we have a great shot at a le. I think this is as close as we get with the big three.

If we want to make another run, keep him. Leadership and experience behind our second year SF Kawhi is perfect.

If we want to blow it up, send him to a contender he deserves it. He's awesome i wish the head front office never let him walk all those years ago.

He will be here next year, period.

thanks jax! hope you won't leave again until retiring!

(I wasn't a fan of him back then, but now he is my 2nd fav player)

[DrSteffo]

Thanks. You are ing great.

[Mr Fundamental]

Thanks Jax !

[Ice009]

Even if the FO wanted to trade him I am pretty sure Tim would not allow it.

[ElNono]

Wanted to chime in this thread and show my appreciation too. Jack was boss.

Building for the future is a loser mentality.

Look, we have a one or two year window, tops, for the remainder of the Tim Duncan era. You don't insult Tim, or the big three for that matter, by starting to rebuild while they still have a pulse. You go balls out for another ring.

And if you're serious about going balls out for a ring, you can't trade the guy with the biggest pair on the team.

Exactly. Tim's probably wanted Jack back for a while now like me and I'm pretty sure he'd be pissed if the Spurs traded him after he was one of the only players that went all out.

Edit : Just found this article, not sure if it was posted before, but well worth reading http://www.grantland.com/story/_/id/...tephen-jackson

Big Ups JAXXXXX

[Marcus Bryant]

Definitely bring him back.

[Wild Cobra Kai]

inefficient chucker, stephen doesn't fit on the Spurs, I'm an idiot.

That's all the people have told me the last 4 years or so.

ALL FLAT WRONG.

He's always been a great team player.

I think every team along the way would disagree with you, ultimately, but what I will say is that he's always been a great Spur. He never stayed here in one contract long enough to burn his bridges like he did everywhere else.

A happy Jack is a great thing. An unhappy one is an unholy terror. I would like to keep him next year, but even if Tim signs for two, I'm not sure you want Mr. Hyde the year after that.

I disagree completely.

Jax and Manu are the guys who never lost their confidence.
