Mark Jackson Weighs In On Boogie Signing With The Warriors

[staticshock]

Prove it and I'll ban myself.

Idk breh I just saw other people said you were Asian. I got no beef with you

 

[dayun]

Its not the fact that the 73-9 defending world champion warriors added KD.

They win two chips, sweep the last one and add boogie to the roster.



Thats cool and all.


But no other team in the league has the luxury of doing the same shyt.

So they went from the best team in the league, to REALLY THE BEST TEAM IN THE LEAGUE, to WHO CAN BEAT THEM?


Meanwhile the rest of the league (the competitive half) got weaker, SAS havent added anyone intriguing, Cle lost bron, Thundrr lost KD, houston lost ariza


Why does the league want to make the best team Better, by taking away the best players from their biggest competitors and adding them to the best team?

Did the warriors win that year?

That's the thing. People read something and run with it. Typical coli mentality. No one questioned it until recently.

Did the warriors win that year?

They were the defending champions, and went 73-9.


Nothing I said was a lie,



Seems to me like they mailed it in and let lebron talk his shyt, knowing what was about to happen that summer

You said he joined the 73-9 defending champs. If he joined the defending champs at the time, it means he would have joined the cavs.

 

[camer999]

they didn't let him do anything. He had to earn those rings, they wasn't facing teams who layed down for them in the playoffs besides round 1 when the different in talent was apparent

Yeah but obviously the talented players of the era could’ve made a GOD squad like currently warriors vs the bulls and ended it early players didn’t really do that though.

 

[AITheAnswerAI]

Pretty obvious Mark has some stronger feelings on the matter, but he voiced his opinion the safest way he could.

 

[rbksNgirbauds]

Oh look, another deflection

Typical Coli shyt

You making hella valid points that I actually agree wit....but it's hard to take someone that's hopped from team to team, Johnson riding, serious.

Because we all kno u not goin in like this cuz u give af about nikkas bein competitors and holding they own til the end win lose or draw; but cuz it's inconvenienced your fave player from running roughshod the league with his own bytchmade, store bought superteams. The irony.

And that disingenuity makes you a sack rider......the worse kind actually

That's the lame shyt that makes nikkas not respect you.

nikka Idgaf about my "fav player" winnin or not, nikka Bron is Top 3 All-Time whether he wins again or not, I could care less.

Bottom line is real nikkas are real nikkas, period. And no real nikka is or will ever be infavor of hoe nikka actions.

Hell, I could use that same lame shyt on you and say the only reason you don't care bout competitiveness is cause you think LeBron'll never win again.

Regardless of who's in the league and regardless of who I'm a fan of, hoe shyt is hoe shyt. Period.

Glad you agree that LeBron created this shyt.

 

[brick james]

Glad you agree that LeBron created this shyt.

So we are all in agreement here right? In this era Lebron started this hoe shyt, and the Warriors took this hoe shyt to unprecedented heights, until some other soft ass hoe a few years from right now, scared to face criticism from other people he's never met, will take far less money to join a bunch of other superstars in their prime, and take this soft ass shyt to unprecedented levels.

 

[McPiff]

A lot of in this thread

 

[Sterling Archer]

Imagine if Federer and Nadal were too scared to compete against each other and became a doubles team all these years, lol...

Andy Roddikk would be an American legend

Doubles is a different sport technically and tennis is a solo outing. Does not compute. And neither Nadal nor Federer kept Andy Roddikk from being better tennis player. They could never have existed and Roddikk would be the same nikka he is now.

 

[Emoryal]

Mark Jackson seem to give credit where credit is due and speak based on his own experinces and beliefs dont see this supposed bad talkong the warriors but

 

[THE MACHINE]

Mark is right....

Rodman would never team up with the Bulls, he would reject the trade or sit out....oh wait, that was different

Clyde would never go to Houston to get a cheap ring, he would reject the trade with Thorpe or sit out....oh wait, that was different

Barkley would never demand a trade to a competitor to try to get a ring.....oh wait, that was different

Jordan would never retire when the front office wouldnt pay the superteam to stay together, he would stay and do it on his own....oh wait, that was different

Shaq in the mid 90s would never run to a 53 win team....oh wait, that was different

This is how a Hall-of-Fame career looks when you dont hold your own nuts and let teams do whatever they want with you. Either decide your future or get whored around by the league. No way a player of Mark Jackson's caliber should have been playing in all of those cities

NBA career
New York Knicks
Jackson was the 18th pick of the 1987 NBA draft by the New York Knicks.[3] He teamed with Patrick Ewing and Charles Oakley to turn the Knicks into a prime playoff team in the late 1980s and early 1990s. However, before the Knicks peaked and became regular playoff contenders, he was traded to the Los Angeles Clippers in 1992.

Jackson had a steady career with the Knicks, most notably under coach Rick Pitino, averaging 13.6 points and 10.6 assists per game in his rookie season, earning him the 1988 Rookie of the Year award, the lowest overall draft pick to win the award since Woody Sauldsberry in 1958. He was the only non-lottery pick to have won the award since the introduction of the system in 1985 until the 2016-17 season, where Malcolm Brogdon won the award as a second round pick.

In 1989, Jackson had another promising season for the Knicks, teaming with Ewing to lead them to the Atlantic Division title and the number two seed in the east (behind the eventual world champion Detroit Pistons, whom they swept 4-0 in the regular season), and making his lone All-Star Game appearance. After sweeping Charles Barkley's Philadelphia team in the opening round, the Knicks faced the upstart Chicago Bulls, led by Michael Jordan, in the Eastern Conference semifinals. Noteworthy in the series was near the end of game two, where Jackson en route to a fast break layup in the fourth quarter looked back and stuck out his tongue at Jordan before finishing the layup; Jordan responded with a 40+ PPG average the remainder of the series, and led Chicago to a 4-2 series victory. Following a contract extension prior to the 1990 season, Jackson began to lose his All-Star form; the loss of Pitino (who left to coach the University of Kentucky) and starting the season out of shape were key factors. Consequently, he began to face stiff competition from backup guard Rod Strickland, to the point where in their decisive first-round game five against Larry Bird, Kevin McHale, Robert Parish, Dennis Johnson and the Boston Celtics at the Boston Garden, Knick coach Stu Jackson decided to bench Mark Jackson for the entire game; New York went on to defeat Boston to advance to the second round, where they lost to the eventual champion Detroit Pistons in five games.

Los Angeles Clippers
After the 1991–92 season, he was traded to the Los Angeles Clippers, a trade that saw Charles Smith and Doc Rivers go to the Knicks (this was actually a three-team deal, with the Clippers also obtaining Stanley Roberts from the Orlando Magic for draft picks; Roberts had become superfluous in Orlando when the Magic won the draft lottery for his college teammate, Shaquille O'Neal.) While with the Clippers, Jackson teamed with Danny Manning, Ron Harper and head coach Larry Brown to lead the Clippers to the second of their two consecutive playoff appearances; the Clippers would not reach the playoffs in consecutive years again until the 2011–2012 and 2012–2013 seasons.

Indiana Pacers
On June 30th 1994, the Indiana Pacers traded Pooh Richardson, Malik Sealy, and the draft rights to Eric Piatkowski for Jackson and the draft rights to Greg Minor. With the Pacers, he teamed with Reggie Miller, Rik Smits, Antonio Davis and Dale Davis for six seasons to make the Indiana Pacers a contender.

Denver Nuggets
Jackson was traded to the Denver Nuggets before the 1996–97 NBA season started for Jalen Rose. This trade was a disaster for the Pacers, as the Pacers fell in 10th place in the East halfway through the season and out of the playoff race.

Return to the Pacers
This Nuggets trade was a disaster for the Pacers, as the Pacers fell to 10th place in the Eastern Conference standings halfway through the season and out of the playoff race. Looking to re-energize the team's on-court performance, Pacers' president Donnie Walsh traded for Jackson and LaSalle Thompson at the trade deadline, giving up Vincent Askew, Eddie Johnson and second round picks in 1997 and 1998. The return of Jackson sparked the Pacers, but they still missed the playoffs for the only time in the last decade and a half. Jackson would eventually appear in his only NBA Finals as the Pacers' starting point guard in 2000, when they lost to the Los Angeles Lakers in six games.

Toronto Raptors
Jackson would leave the Pacers that off-season for the Toronto Raptors, who needed a point guard and had extra money to spend due to the departure of Tracy McGrady earlier that off-season. Antonio Davis recommended his former Pacers teammate as a suitable replacement. Jackson would only play 54 games for the Raptors before being traded at the trade deadline back to the Knicks.

Return to the Knicks
Jackson was traded to the Knicks on February 22, 2001. Jackson became the starter at point guard for the rest of the season playing in 29 games. He helped lead the Knicks to the 4th seed in the Eastern Conference, as the Knicks were knocked out of the playoffs by the Raptors. Despite a solid individual season for Jackson, the Knicks ended the 2001–02 season with a 30–52 record and out of the playoffs for the first time in 15 seasons. In the offseason, he was involved in a trade back to the Nuggets, where he was immediately waived.

Utah Jazz
On October 2, 2002, Jackson signed with the Utah Jazz and played for them during the 2002–03 season as John Stockton's backup. It was this season that Jackson moved to second place on the list of all-time assists leaders behind his teammate Stockton. Jackson would play all 82 games that season without starting one.

Houston Rockets
On January 15, 2004, Jackson signed with the Houston Rockets backing up Steve Francis. Jackson only played in 42 games as a Rocket and, experiencing a large drop off in skills, finished his career at season's end.
