Get it right. The white owners and handlers can do no harm but how dare the black slave act like a wild animal. The real animals are the rich white handlers
Fuk yo statement clown

I know we're deep, but we can't just go cutting a proven playoff performer because he called a a .
Ya, what is with this holier than thou stuff from Drunk RC? Makes no sense and they swept that right under the rug. Kind of hope Jax throws that in his face (although Jax is cool so he wouldn't do that).
Stack5 don't give a , If Ibaka tries to step up, he will be busted straight in the mouth by Jackson. Real talk. Ibaka is a pretender, stack5 wont put up with his pretend game.
Jax taking pictures of all of his cars in response to the fine
hopefully this situation is settled and done with, I'd hate to lose Jax over such trivial . especially considering RC could've killed someone with his situation, jax was just calling out Ibaka for his tough guy schtick. We need guys like Jax on this team to balance out the Euro finesse tbh.
Wtf why all this talk on jax being cut for a stupid twitter quote
I'll take trash-talking Jax over effeminate RJ every day. Screw the "Spurs standard"...
If the Spurs fine Buckets for this, that's a disgrace, considering they didn't fine "He who shall not be named" for this...
RT @Monroe_SA: To clarify: $25,000 is total extent of fine imposed on Stephen Jackson by both Spurs and NBA for his Twitter comments re. S. Ibaka
I don't think we'll hear more about that, unless of course SJax goes through with his threats
To me it looks like the Spurs have been in the news quite a bit recently, between the restgate, the Halloween picture and now this. Buford is probably in damage control mode at this point, trying to show Stern that he has his troops in order. I wouldn't read more into it than that.
Going to be tough to say that the Spurs are boring or staying out of the limelight... I like the assertiveness, though.
We're just the kings of bad press all of a sudden. Incredible. For a team that never has bad press...
Rest-Gate
Tony & Tim Halloween Picture
Stephen Jackson tweets
tbh, you could say Jax bears responsibility for all three of these bad press incidents. Indirect in the first 2 cases, and direct in the third.
Lapses in the PR machine come with the territory, though. The guy is just so damn unrestrained. It's what makes him great to have around, but also a liability.
I don't get it, are you saying "he who should not be named" for "dude" in the middle or the guy all the way on the left with the little penis? Also would "dude" be getting fined for wearing woman's clothes or the guy all the way on the left get fined for his little penis?If the Spurs fine Buckets for this, that's a disgrace, considering they didn't fine "He who shall not be named" for this...
No ... WTF RC? Drinking and driving is a of a lot worse than talking on Twitter.
Damn, that 65 SS drop-top is ing sweet.
Focusing on the hypocrisy of Buford releasing a statement that touts the Spurs standards misses the point.
From the moment that Jack sent out that tweet, three entirely predictable events were bound to follow. First, Jack would issue a carefully worded, insincere apology (and there can't be anyone that believes that Jack wrote that apology himself). Second, the Spurs would issue a carefully worded, insincere condemnation of Jack's action. Third, a slap on the wrist, in the way of a small fine, would be administered.
It's just damage control and there's every reason to believe that all three events were coordinated between Buford and Jack's agent. It's how everyone gets to put this episode in the rear view mirror as quickly as possible.
Longer term, this is just the latest example of Jack being his own worst enemy. There are already a number of franchises that wouldn't take Jack on their teams even if he were willing to play for free. Now, the market for his services this summer just got even smaller. Good for the Spurs if they choose to retain him beyond this season, I suppose. Otherwise, he could be following Marbury and TMac to China.
Meh. I think the Spurs had to somewhat respond to his tweet and clarify that they don't condone it. In the end, it's just a stupid tweet.
Pop must be loving this. The team may have gotten more negative publicity but the Spurs aren't the soft team they have been for the past few years. When Tim screams after a dunk and Bonner actually throws it down...
Oh, how right you are... LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!
So, what was the original comment on Ibaka, again?
Technically Jax isn't threatening him but just saying he would retaliate if Ibaka went after him which 99% of NBA players would do.
Very stupid.
You don't talk about retaliating.
You just do it.
Even if Ibaka is a , what Jack did was stupid. The fine is logical and deserved.
I think this is the end of story for Spurs organization. They knew when they traded for jack that he wasn't a model citizen and a couple of stupid tweets is a small infraction.
What I'm not so sure is how Jack will react at this whole story. What would be reasonable would be to realize he made a mistake and that he got a small fine given his salary. I do hope he will take it like that.
The fine makes sense, I think it's funny he started posting pictures of his cars and stuff. I would have expected for him to have more cars, tbh.
