Um, wasn't it Jackson who refused the Spurs' offer? I don't really recall the details but I remember that the Spurs FO did want to keep him.
Spurs have won 3 rings with Tim Duncan, and the Manu and Parker pick-ups were genius, but right here, right now, I'm defending my right to say that if the Spurs front office hadn't ed around with Stephen Jackson and pulled his contract, the Spurs would have been a en dynasty
Chew on that for awhile Spur fans.

DAMM DOC BROWN...where is the delorian when u need it
Spurs pulled the contract after a week. Jackson wanted to come back.
Actually Jackson has done real good and I'm real happy for him: he deserves this success. But there is really NO reason for any Spurs fan or FO pencil neck to beat themselves up overlosing himSpurs have won 3 rings with Tim Duncan, and the Manu and Parker pick-ups were genius, but right here, right now, I'm defending my right to say that if the Spurs front office hadn't ed around with Stephen Jackson and pulled his contract, the Spurs would have been a en dynasty

I don't give a who was at fault. All I know is that the Spurs have never really replaced the skill set at the swing position that Jackson has.
Jackson is too reckless for our style of play. He has no handles, and is a sporadic jump shooter. He was on fire this series, but he's usually very inconsistent. I still like watching the guy play, he won a Championship with us and is forever a part of the fraternity.
If Hedo Turkoglu had SJax's balls, the Spurs would be working on their fifth le in a row this year.
Nbadan is one funny mofo.
You think the players on all the former dynasties got along? No, but the coach was strong enough to put all the pieces together (or in the Bull's case it was MJ).
It's not the pencil-pushing suit that should be beating themselves over the head, it's spur fans.
No doubt Jax and Claxton would have propelled us past LA in '04. The Spurs can solidify their chances this summer by bringing in Jax type players, and I believe they will regardless of winning it all or not.
Jackson played like for the Pacers he is a guy that is talented enough to have a hot series. Would i like to still have him on the team sure, but it was him or Manu and i take Manu any day of the week and twice on Sunday.Spurs have won 3 rings with Tim Duncan, and the Manu and Parker pick-ups were genius, but right here, right now, I'm defending my right to say that if the Spurs front office hadn't ed around with Stephen Jackson and pulled his contract, the Spurs would have been a en dynasty

Sjax is a nuttcase and does not fit in the Spurs system.
I am happy we don't have a coach trying to fit him in the silver and black family.
I am happy he is doing well in Oakland right now with the other rowdy playas they got over there.
You may think I'm kidding, but after the Spurs traded SJ, I stopped posting about them for a long time.
The FA period is limited in duration, and if you around too long with your A guy, your B and C guys will be gone, too. It didn't work out for the best for SA, but I'd say in spite of getting that contract he wanted, it's been worse for Jack. He's done some monumentaly stupid things being around bad guys on bad teams. He may well end up in jail for that firearm discharge incident, which BTW was a felony. That violated his parole.
another Jackson thread
great!
Steve didn't leave on bad terms. That was seen when the Warriors played the Spurs last month. Spurs players going to shake hands with him when he was on the bench.
Only team dumb enough to sign him for a large amount of money was the Hawks and he only signed for 1 year.
Yeah Turk was a much better choice. Spurs should have just given JACK the JACK.
Jackson won't win the championship this year don't worry. He's awesome though don't get me wrong, but its more like Jack needs the Spurs more than the Spurs need Jack to win.
You post this as if we didn't win a ring in 2005 without Jackson?
Dude hit some nice threes on a wreckless team, beat a team with no heart and now he's the massiah?
It'd be cool if we still had him, but last time i checked, we have a player out there knocking down 8 out of 9 threes in a closeout game and who isn't TURNOVER prone. Or a constant T threat.
Pfff...you think GS is gonna let Jack go now?
Only for Manu and a few first round picks, and the caveman...
Look at this loser, championing another losser.
I wwould have loved to having SJax back, especially now. The fact is though, with all that money we would have given him we might not have been able to resign Manu.
Manu > SJax
Yeah, that's not true....they could have signed both.
If the Spurs would have drafted Jackson in '99, they'd be going for nine championships in a row.
Nah, I think it took his altercation with Scott in NJ to light a fire under JACK, but he loved playing with TIM and he loved WINNING!
