Does anyone remember who Jarren Jackson stuffed in that game? Not that ^ game. But I want to say it was in the playoffs. If you saw it, you'd know what I'm talking about. I'd like to see that again.
I remember how excited I was a few years ago when the Spurs traded Jefferson to Golden State and got Jackson back as part of the trade.

One of my all-time favorite Spurs, tbh.. He'll be missed. Thanks for the Chips Captain Jack
This. He was atrocious especially on d his final year. And he had issues with Green and maybe Manu. Pop made the right call.
That said, the year before he really seemed to spark the team. Replacing RJ with him was like a breath of fresh air.
My favorite SJAX moments
Stack Jack know what I get boi! lol
Some great and some not so great memory attached with Jack but I guess it's time to put away the bad memories and to keep only the good ones.
To me, jack will always be attached at that 2003 le. Spurs' 2003 team was a weird mix of players and without Jack we surely wouldn't have witnessed D-Rob retiring with a ring, which rank among the Spurs' moments. So, Thanks a lot Jack for that.
I also hope he will manage properly his new life.
Enjoyed his Spurs contributions.
I have to give it up, he played a role:
SB NATION: 8 reasons we'll miss Stephen Jackson
http://www.sbnation.com/nba/2015/7/2...eer-retirement
Jackson was offered an $8 million / year contract with us. His re ed agent refused and ended up signing with the 13-win Hawks for like a quarter of that, IIRC.Loved SJAX. I wanted him to stay in 03/04 but it was impossible with Manu bumped up to starter. Jax was not going to come off the bench and wanted $$$$. But then Manu ended up coming off the bench most of his career here anyway. But even then if Manu came off the bench in '04 you would have had the problem of who plays in crunch time. Instead we got Hedo......
Spurs did need his chutzpah, though.
I have to give it up, he played a role:
Stephen Jackson, aka Jack, aka Buckets, aka Stak5, aka DaTrillStak5, aka Captain Jack, one of my all-time favorites.
I just gotta say, those that think he wouldn't have helped in '13 just because he was having a down regular season must have forgotten who he is. His momuments were built when the cards were down. "I live for that, man. I MAKE LOVE TO PRESSURE."
Be easy, Jack. Always a Spur in my mind. Thanks.

Captain Jack gone but never forgotten.
One of my all time favorite players.
Feeling nostalgic, I watched some 2003 playoffs. Young Tim, DRob, Bowen, and Capt. Jack -- holy !
Dude, it was like a 3 year, $10 million total contract Pop offered. $8 million a year was almost David Robinson money. Jack wanted five years and proved he was worth it that year in Atlanta. But yeah, that Hawks team was terrible around him. I remember in a game against Dallas I think he said it was the first time he had seen a box and 1 defense since high school.
What I would have given to have had Jack in that 06 series against Dallas. No way the Spurs don't ring that year if they had him to throw on Dirk.
Maybe my favourite Spurs role-player of all time
Will not listen to a bad word said about Buckets.
-He was huge in the 1st round in 03' against Phoenix when the Spurs were looking a little shook
-He was big against Dallas in the WCF in '03, who can forgot the 3pt barrage he put on before Steve Kerr stole his thunder...
-Those 3's in the 4th quarter in Game 6 in the '03 Finals
-That performance in Game 6 against OKC in the '12 WCF...
Feeling like I need to change my avatar after 12 years now
David in 03 was worth much less than TD now, and TD is older.Dude, it was like a 3 year, $10 million total contract Pop offered. $8 million a year was almost David Robinson money.

Yeah man, LDN has surpassed Jack for my second favorite role player of all time. Bruce is still my #1, though Green ain't too far behind.

I've always loved me some Cap'n Jack and damn I was pissed when he got waived ........ even though it was his fault but still,all of his game 6 performances will always be remembered. Wishing Mr. "Game 6" the best in his future endeavors
Yeah, those are the 3 for me as well.
