Stephen Jackson Can Ball, Can't Rap
As a Warriors fan, I've often wondered if Stephen Jackson would be a good rapper. I always figured he'd be along the lines of a 50 Cent, seeing as S-Jax had a pretty rough upbringing and is a former Blood (or still one, according to some people).

Stephen Jackson: Good Baller, Bad Rapper
FanHouse — Filed under: Warriors, NBA Gossip, NBA Videos There's absolutely no questioning Stephen Jackson's basketball ability, especially after his last game where he dropped 41 on the Wizards. But his rapping ability leaves a little something to be desired. Now to be fair, this was an impromptu freestyle session, so who knows if the man really does have some skills. But the consensus seems to be that rapping involves rhyming, which is something that Captain Jack mixes in only briefly here. Oh, and the dude in the shadows to Jax's right with the large bottle in his ...

Thanks Jack - Again (Warriors 120, Wizards 117)Warriors
I give up. After wringing my hands for most of the season about the Warriors’ lack of focus and propensity to play down to opponents, there’s not much more I can say. Monday night marked the season’s biggest comeback and, at least for me, a personal watershed. Until further notice, I’m not [...]
Not even the Wizards magic can stop the WarriorsBleacher Report
I am a die-hard Warriors fan and would pick them to win the finals, not because i actually think they can, but because they are my team.

Jackson Explodes For 41, Warriors Rally Past Wizards 120-117Slam Dunk Central
Stephen Jackson, at any given time during a game, can be capable of an offensive explosion. Monday night against the Washington Wizards, he certainly exploded - to the tune of 41 points; but what is more impressive about his effort was the fact that he played the game with a sprained left ankle. His scoring sparked a late rally as the Golden State ...

Monta’s a StudInside the Warriors
I hope you all are paying close attention. If you are, you’re witnessing Monta Ellis take his game to another level. He’s not just scoring because the other team is focused elsewhere. He’s not just living off the exploits of Stephen Jackson and Baron Davis. He’s making it happen independent of his teammates, sometimes even in spite of. He carried the Warriors against ...
