When the Mavs beat the Warriors 120-115 back in November at their place, only one thing was missing -- Stephen Jackson. He was serving a seven-game suspension to start the season so he missed out on guarding Dirk Nowitzki, a job he did pretty well in the first round.
With the Warriors in Dallas Wednesday night, I'll have an article that morning looking at the matchup between Dirk and Jackson and the Mavs and Warriors.
While Jackson seemed to really irritate Nowitzki in that series, Jerry Stackhouse was adamant on Monday that it wasn't so much what Jackson did to Nowitzki, but rather what Nowitzki and the Mavs did to themselves.
Here's Stackhouse's take on Jackson's defensive role in the playoffs:
"I just think we didn't take advantage of some of the things that we should have. We weren't aggressive in our moves. We allowed him to play; up until that series, nobody had ever thought of Stephen Jackson as no hell of a defensive player. He was just a guy that could shoot the basketball. He made some big shots for San Antonio when they won the championship that year [2003]. But, he's not no defensive stopper or anything. I think it was moreso what we allowed to happen to us. Like anything basketball is a game of confidence. When they come out and for a game and tell him that he did a good job on Dirk, now all of a sudden he's looking for him. It's up to Dirk to get that back. What's a better opportunity to do that than Wednesday night?"

I'm hoping that we won't have a 2 game losing streak. Since our 0-6 start, we haven't lost back-to-back games... so there's hope.The Hornets are a good team and it's going to be a hard fought game on Friday, but I'm optimistic that the Warriors are going to come out focused andready to play on Friday in front of our home crowd (and I'll be in attendance btwOriginally Posted by GSDOUBLEU
^^
We are 11-8 on the road
Now we probably got a 2 game losing streak on the way versus NO Hornets
Just imagine how much better we would be if we still had Jason |

I don't think Jackson has even hit a WIDE OPEN shot in a couple weeks. When he scores, I always say to myself that he got lucky. Example: I thinkit was vs Denver when Jackson banked in the three. Luck. Last night vs Dallas, I forgot who got a piece of the ball but Jackson was posting up against 2defenders, and the ball was knocked in by a Maverick. Luck.Originally Posted by FRANCHISE 55
I'm getting tired of all the forced shots that Jackson keeps throwing up. Pass the!*+!#!$ rock once in a while.

Paul, why were you banned?
The reason J-Rich is scoring all those points is because he and Gerald Wallce are the only people scoring for the Bobcats
I'm not trying to justify whether it was the right or wrong move, but I don't think it's fair to say that he's scoring because he's theonly option, he should be HARDER for him to score since teams would focus on him defensively if he's the first/second best option on the team. I thinkhe's doing very well in Charolette (sp?) now that he's settled in.I wouldn't worry about GSW though, you guys ARE still a playoff team.
