…he’s hurt the game. And what I mean by that is that I go into these high school gyms, I watch these kids and the first thing they do is they run to the 3-point line.

Thank god he spoke up… this is his team, he’d know. Here’s what I said to the author of the column:
This isn’t an article its an op-ed piece… shame on you CBS for running this headline. Marc Jacksons comments are the news, and its up for us to debate it… JOURNALISM IS DEAD get off the warriors’ nuts world winning doesnt make u great…. ask tim donaghy. We all knew the Kings and Suns were the best teams but the glamorous ones always get the trophy… sports be on some buuuuuuuuull shiiiiiiiiiiiit, At the end of the day, it’s true: you want kids learning the fundamentals, if you make defense impossible, no one will play it. CURRY IS THE WORST THING TO HAPPEN TO THE NBA IN A LONG TIME.
rules are being bent for lame offense just like in the NFL WHERE IS THE D? Clippers beat Warriors in 7 two years ago then they skate to the finals… smh thank god marc jackson had the balls to speak up the rest of you keep BAHH-BAHHING (SHEEP). Most of you dont know or even watch bball u just check highlights and box scores… ignorance is bliss.

Marc Jackson knows: he is the one who built this team and showed them how to play defense… Steve Kerr is using cheap tricks just like he needed as a little guy too tiny to play D. If this keeps up, the playground will be nothing but untying shoes, tripping people, and jacking up bricks. SHOW ME THE D.
…….. Thank God he shinned a light on the elephant in the room. This is not the sport of basketball…a long range game of horse?…..it’s cupcake ball at best….the ability to defend is paramount in sports…….why even have an opponent?
At the end of the day, defense and hard basketball is the truth… When you step out onto the playground, you fit in or go home. All this cocky shooting is bull shit, the point is, until the rules were changed like in football, THIS NEVER HAPPENED.
The Clippers play hard-nosed physical basketball just like Detroit, where I’m from. That’s the style I respect, because that’s what happens on every real court in America.
