Dude, I'm 42, this is my era. Other people might say why do we need videos about Keith Van Horn, Jimmy Jackson, and Rod Strickland and I just say LET'S GOOOOO! Awesome videos.
My nicca Jimmy Jackson was my favorite guard bacc in the day, he use to tear Iowa up bacc in the early 90s...lol!! Toni Braxton fucc'd that team all the way up...#ForShame
Growing up in Ohio this dude was as big time as it could get... he was unreal!!! I remember when he got injured in college how devastated I was... Now I live in Dallas and work with athletes doing strength and conditioning and my boss told me he used to train Jimmy here and sometimes Jimmy would pick his son ( my friend and co worker ) up from school. Small world. Haha. JJ is a solid dude tho... potential and expectations like he had is why he's considered stunted... Most ppl could only dream of a 14 year career and career average 14/5/3... just couldn't stay healthy. Just imagine how amazing JJ, Mash and Kidd could've been...?? What a baller! Great video as usual... Mashburn might be a good video to make as well..
@@toppdogg2815 he had a stress fracture in his foot the summer before his junior year. Missed the remainder of the Pan American games. As a kid I thought that was the end of his career.
J Russ, I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Sonics and Blazers fan. Japanese-American. 1993-94 was one of the BEST years of my life! And, 1996 was pretty special, too. I have long thought that I'd live to be 48, and pass away in 2021. If I'm indeed in the final months of my life, NBA highlights like these are those that I'll cherish, during these last months of my life.
Jimmy used to my favorite player, really thought he's gonna be one of the greats, spent all my money on his bball cards when i was in high school 😔. All in all, really appreciate your insights on JJ.
I remember jimmy with the mavs when I was in elementary school. Him and the other 2 J's. I looked up his Ohio St stats recently. Bro was la 2 time all american in a cold era.
Yo can we talk about how Don Nelson ruined or almost ruined a lot of dudes careers? He really had the biggest ego because he thought he was the star & not his players.
I remember seeing Jim Jackson in the locker room at Basketball City in New York. He spoke to me first when I came in and I was totally shocked to see him. He had muscles on top of muscles and was taller than I expected. I don’t think he deserves a stunted growth. He was in the league for well over a decade and cashed some decent checks. Put some respeck on JJ name mayne!
But we thought he would be a superstar for a long time. After the injury around his 3rd year. Drastically different. Became a solid journeyman. Many of us expected so much more.
I wish u could’ve interviewed Jackson for this! I think his story is more complex than “he just wasn’t a good leader”. For like 15 years, he clearly was one of the best 400 players in the world to keep having a job in the league. And anybody who watched him play KNOWS he could play. The injury definitely derailed him cuz he would’ve been in a much stronger position as the years went on. The man was averaging 26 a game in the hardcore 90’s era. But the league is a place where it’s all about leverage. It doesn’t matter how good you are- if the teams keep making u play certain roles such as “off the bench scorer” than they will keep you there. Nobody can average 30 in 15 minutes of play. But staying in the league for 10+ years on 10+ teams shows that the man could play & they couldn’t deny him. He was always in shape, never backed down from anyone, & was never punked. He was looked at as a young star before the injury and all the mess in Dallas. Then it was like a cloud was over his head and teams wouldn’t give him the keys in the driver seat. But he stayed in the league & always looked like a real player out there.
Oh please. He threw Kidd and Mashburn under the bus at every opportunity. He never got along with his coaches. He was a malcontent. Name a player or a coach who has said something good about him.
now we're used to see players winning POY in college as freshmen but back in the early '90s that was very rare, these awards were usually given to seniors, so winning POY as a sophomore was an amazing accomplishment for Jackson
Jim Jackson is from my hometown. There are not a lot of famous athletes from Toledo. Dude had potential to be an all star but became a journeyman role player for multiple teams.
Lol I remember him flat out quitting. I don’t remember the last team he got traded to, but when it happened, he said “naw, I ain’t goin” and I never saw him play again...
He was a grown man as a sophomore in HS. When he came down here to Columbus for the state tournament, he may as well been from outter space. Snagged the baddest chick here too.😁
A players reputation around the league is crucial in determining the opportunities or lack there of that they get in the league. I think the incidents in Dallas and his injuries caused Jim Jackson to be seen just as a decent to solid player when if things had gone differently he could have been so much more.
I've always thought the best situation to win was in Portland with Isaiah Rider and Pippen. His son wasn't to bad at Wisconsin either, just needed a to be at a different school to get those minutes.
Amen man! I was and still am a die-hard Blazers fan, and that team was phenomenal. Sure it didn't have a bunch of all-stars or anything, but the '99 team was definitely one of the deepest teams in league history, with a slew of really good players. With Damon at point, prime Isaiah Rider at 2, Walt Williams at SF, prime Rasheed Wallace at PF, and Sabonis at Center. Then the bench you had Brian Grant at PF (who also started a bunch as well, with Sheed sliding down to play SF and Walt going to the bench as the sixth man), then Jimmy at SG/SF who also played some Point-Guard, Stacy Augmon at SF, a young Jermain O'Neal, the great pass-first ball-hawk Greg Anthony at PG, the big bruiser Cato at Center, and lastly a recently rafted Bonzi Wells. To this day, even with Rider being an asshole off the court - there is no way they should have traded both Rider AND Jimmy Jackson for an over-the-hill Steve Smith! Hell, even a prime Smith wouldn't have been worth it, (unless it was a straight one for one, Rider for Smith, just not for both Rider and Jackson! Both rider and Jackson were infinitely more versatile, whether it being in scoring or the fact they were both better defenders to boot! To this day that trade is considered to be one of the worst trades in Hawks history, but imo it was far worse for Portland. Rider eventually self-destructed a couple years into his stint with the Hawks, but that might not have happened if he had stayed in Portland, and the fact is - Smith was meh at Portland, he was never a great slasher to begin with, but by the time we got him he was even more immobile and one-dimensional, and though he became a really good passer and developed a decent post game was well, both though weren't as good as Jimmy's were - to along with the fact he was a horrific defender. Then of course just a year or two after getting him we ended up trading him for Derrick Anderson, which was a phenomenal trade - if it wasn't for the fact Anderson was so damn injury prone. We were so close to becoming something great, with Rider finally getting used to playing with so many other scorers and becoming significantly more unselfish offensively, Sheed blossoming into an unstoppable force in the post and the most well-rounded and versatile PF in the entire league, Sabonis equally as dominant with an even better outside shot to go with having the best passing skills i"ve ever seen in a Center, Walt Williams being one of the most underrated and sadly - underutilized scorers of the mid to late 90's at SF, Augmon being a great slasher and post game while still being one of the top 5 on-ball defenders at the wing in the league, Brian Grant being a dominant post scorer and one of the best rebounders at the time, Damon starting to become a much better passer while getting used to playing with so many other scorers, and finally Jimmy being the glue guy who did it all - we truly had become a great team! I would have loved if we at least gave it one more year before blowing everything up like that. We did of course get back to the conference finals with Pippen and Smith, but because both were so old, there was really only a 2 year or so period where we were real contenders, while also in those years not being nearly as deep because we traded so many guys for only two washed-up former all-stars. If we had kept Rider, Jackson, Walt Williams, Greg Anthony, and Cato we would have remained a significantly deeper team that also would have remained contenders for a minimum of 2 or so years longer than we did. Sorry for the rant man
Thanks for this bro. I’m from Toledo, Jimmy Jackson was LeBron before LeBron here in Ohio. Much respect to “Jimmy” as he’s known around town and to you for this vid family.
Jim was nice. Had all the tools..that edge up was always crispy..he became very one dimensional when he got to the league.. that triple J trio was nice. They were young, but looking back didn't complement each other well game wise, no spacing, Jim n Mash iso scorers..Kidd at his best is up tempo, free flowing. See his Suns and Nets days. This a good one SG

Okay stop the presses this is my favorite one yet! I was thinking about JJ just yesterday. How he held out til friggan March (Jon Barry and Doug Christie also had long holdouts from this draft), and the Mavs were on pace to break the record for most losses ever , but this rookie helped them win enough to avoid that distinction and finish with ELEVEN wins. He was still a real nice role player even as a journeyman, all the way up to his time in Phoenix. I always wondered why he fell off so drastically. That 1992 draft is still my favorite all time. Only two true greats but the depth of quality players is staggering. Harold Miner is the only lottery bust, and you don't find another true bust out til Randy Woods fron LaSalle. A ton of great role players and stunted stars (Walt Williams, Todd Day, Laphonso Ellis, Clarence Weatherspoon, Oliver Miller, etc etc) JC, we need a Lloyd Daniels video!! "Stunt Number One, arrested at a crack house..." lmao

Man he carried Ohio St in the ‘92 tournament, but ran into Michigan and the fab five in the Elite Eight. Had the perfect size and skill set. Better coaching early on and you never know what he could have been.
@@versatillion15 Its not. Dude had huge talent. He was also great on defense when he wanted to be as an individual defender and shot blocker. Dude was something else when motivated...(and when he wasn't bricking threes)
I knew about the whole Toni Braxton drama but as much as I follow/love hoop, I never knew it was his negative "jacket" that led to him playing for so many teams. The unfortunate thing about him, Jamal and Jason never working out is that stars drafted into what could ultimately be super-teams STILL cannot learn from this experience, put aside their attitudes/immaturity and chase that ring. Russ, Harden, and KD were an updated version of this trio. Three former MVP's and future HOF'ers also couldn't make it work for damn near the same reasons, when they could've put it all together and had 1-2 chips before leaving OKC...Great story brotha.
It's funny you made this video I meet Jim Jackson in 00',when he played for Atlanta Hawks at Lenox mall. We talked for about ten minutes about basketball and J.R. Rider.
Another great talent white coaches didn’t know what to do with. You don’t blame no players for loses. I been coaching kids for years, Players win games, Coaches lose them. Coaching a team, is the physical representation of what’s going on inside the coaches mind, the players only doing what they’ve been told, so if they look like they don’t know what they doing that’s not the players fault, it’s the coaches fault. The coach is the Leader of the team. A player is a leader on the floor. How you expect a 20 something year old kid come in an lead your team to the promised land.
My favorite player of all time beginning with his days at Ohio St. It was so unfortunate to watch his fall from potential stardom. I was in middle school when he got drafted in 92. I always explain to people how good he could have been. I had the opportunity to chat with him on Twitter and I am FB friends with his son Traevon. I wish he would get into coaching.
Buckeye and Jim Jackson fan here. Loved watching Jimmy and wanted him to be a star so bad. I feel like you make some of the best points for why he didn't, but I do think there was more to it. And I do think he was some of his reputation was unfair. But life ain't fair it proves you gotta treat each opportunity like its your last. This was a great watch my brotha. Look forward to more 👊
Jim Jackson appeared on Teen Summit back in the day, and broke down those same misconceptions that was put on his jacket That episode was my favorite on the show The Toni Braxton controversy was just a slick way for shorty to sell "Secrets" Dope segment, Stunted Growth 💯

jj matured as a man over the years. fate has a way guiding us thru a journey. his tv career might turn out 2 b better than his playing career. he was fundamentally sound. he wasn't ridiculously gifted athletically, but he had enough. i met him once while attending OSU. he probably could have modeled, if he didn't already .good video
JJ definitely had the it factor in being a solid NBA player. Based on what I remember in watching him, I think the injuries played a bigger role than meets the eye. Secondly, I feel that management and coaches often have an expectation of leading scorers to automatically be leaders period. Leading in stats does not always translate to being "the main guy" in the locker room. From a subjective standpoint, should he have been a better leader? Perhaps. But sometimes team dynamics and mixing up various personalities and egos make it challenging for any leader or potential one. The Dallas team should have definitely made way more noise than they did. Both JJ and Mash were scoring and rebounding machines and no one was nicer with the assists than J Kidd...
This is a stunted growth I 100% agree with. Jim Jackson had game. Jimmy Jackson was dope at Ohio State and should've been a star in the NBA. He had good statistical seasons but it never clicked but he could ball. The rumors about his attitude were known to fans like me back in the day without social media. He was very talented.
I went to Macomber and KNOW Jim to be an even BETTER person than a basketball player AND tight end. And yes definitely his ankle injury took his explosiveness .... Overall good video bro....
Loving this one thanks for sharing very information blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Jimmy Jackson was used to be the man in high school and college; in the NBA, when he found players who were more experienced and who wanted to give him advice, he probably did not take it too well, he was used to being the one who led the team and nobody questioning his decisions. Just an hypothesis

good video. The 3 J's were the shyt. wish they woulda stayed together longer tho. it's a shame what happened to JJ man smmfh. he was the truth. i think his story is similar to Joe Smith and Kenny Anderson where if they woulda stayed on the teams that drafted them, they may have been consistent all stars
I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Sonics and Blazers fan. Japanese-American. I remember in 1992-93, Jim Jackson was linked to Seattle in trade rumors. Maybe, Doug Christie and the 1994 lottery pick (from the Sixers) the Sonics had (which they used to get Kendall Gill).
Not long ago I was listening to an NBA game while doing chores and the analyst was making great points and he had a lot of charismatic energy behind the microphone. At the end of the broadcast I found out it was none other than Jimmy Jackson! I hated JJ for being a reason for breaking up that young corps in Dallas with Kidd and Mashburn. And as this video demonstrated, he never lived up to the hype he got. But it looks like he found his niche as an NBA analyst. Good for him.
I remember meeting Jim Jackson at a Warehouse Music store at the Beverly Center back in the day,I asked him what happened to the 3Js and he politely declined to talk about it but he was a cool dude
JJ was a true baller. Any team he landed on saw a positive impact on the team. Loved him on my Heat! Don't know if u did there stories yet(Lou Roe, Junior Burrough)
Another great video Brodie keep it up & keep dropping this great videos💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 Anyway to anybody that’s watching this remember y’all, Keep Going & Be Safe 🤟🏾💯
It's a crime this trio couldn't make it work. As a teen, I thought this would be the real big ticket to go to when they came to town. J Kidd could've even had a higher scoring average with big threats like JJ and JM to free him up for better lay in opportunities. This legit could have been the next showtime.
As a die-hard Blazers fan born in Seattle in 1973, I remember after the Blazers' surprising breakout 1998-99 season, he asked for a trade, because "He didn't want to play a role." He got traded to terrible Atlanta, and averaged his 18 ppg, all right, but was always losing.
I met him in 2017 on the 4th of July at Manhattan Beach. He was Nicole Murphy, he was super chill we chopped it up for a minute real nice guy, and Nicole Murphy is fine as hell lol
I always wondered why a player with the skill set of Jim Jackson became a journeyman and the his lack of maturity as you illustrated shows why. Like you said, once a player gets a certain reputation it's hard to shake. See Dwight Howard.
Keep in mind, his actual 1st Stunt, was the NBA Contract negotiations he had with Dallas. He tried to use the Nike shoe deal as leverage and he didn't sign til season started...ijs
Jimmy Jack was straight, him, Kidd, and Mashburn could have went places if they'd stayed together. I remember playing NBA Jam back in the days, they were one of my faves to play with. I use to mix them up like Kidd and Jackson, Kidd and Mashburn, Jackson and Mashburn and all that. Salute!
I was so excited for that Mavericks team in the 90s with Kidd, Mashburn, and Jackson, but ultimately disappointed. They should have been fun and exciting to watch.
That 92 draft class was pretty solid Alonzo Mourning HOF center 1st round pick by the Hornets 🐝 Shaquille O’Neal HOF center 1st round pick by the Orlando Magic Christian Laettner All Star forward 1st round pick by the Timberwolves Tom Gugliotta All Star forward 1st round pick by the Washington Bullets Latrell Spreewell All Star SG 1st round pick by the Golden State Warriors
IMPORTANT FACT: don't know if you can add in edits but there was HUGE STUNT his rookie year because he was holding out for more money as a rookie. So he missed over HALF THE SEASON healthy and got a late start. It affected his rep and career momentum. I don't think there was rookie salary scale back then and stuff like that is why they might've started them.
Two draft picks from the 1992 NBA Draft are an answer to this trivia question. Who were the last Laker players to wear 8 and 24, before Kobe. Doug Christie and Jim Jackson. You should do a video on another 1992 Draft player, Harold Miner. Nicknamed Baby Jordan at USC, he was a bust in the NBA!

I would have loved if we at least gave it one more year before blowing everything up like that. We did of course get back to the conference finals with Pippen and Smith, but because both were so old, there was really only a 2 year or so period where we were real contenders, while also in those years not being nearly as deep because we traded so many guys for only two washed-up former all-stars. If we had kept Rider, Jackson, Walt Williams, Greg Anthony, and Cato we would have remained a significantly deeper team that also would have remained contenders for a minimum of 2 or so years longer than we did. Sorry for the rant man
Thanks for the Jimmy Jackson feature.
This the one right here. I couldn’t figure out why he became a journeyman. Thanks for the vid bro. 💪
Toni Braxton messed up my Mavs until Dirk came thur.
Grown men going crazy over pussy . I blame them .
@We Are A Beautiful People from Dallas and it was crazy.
just got into the content. elite basketball content.
Salute fam✌🏾️
Thanks for this bro. I’m from Toledo, Jimmy Jackson was LeBron before LeBron here in Ohio. Much respect to “Jimmy” as he’s known around town and to you for this vid family.
Toledo in da house huh... I went to Macomber TOO
Jim was nice. Had all the tools..that edge up was always crispy..he became very one dimensional when he got to the league.. that triple J trio was nice. They were young, but looking back didn't complement each other well game wise, no spacing, Jim n Mash iso scorers..Kidd at his best is up tempo, free flowing. See his Suns and Nets days. This a good one SG
Yea I remember he always had a fresh fade. Dude was nice at Ohio St.
Had it all, inside/outside game, size and Hollywood looks.
What could have been.
😂😂😂 I always thought the same thing too jimmy look at this pretty boy but he could ball

@@williammunny9916 Amen..
Okay stop the presses this is my favorite one yet!
I was thinking about JJ just yesterday. How he held out til friggan March (Jon Barry and Doug Christie also had long holdouts from this draft), and the Mavs were on pace to break the record for most losses ever , but this rookie helped them win enough to avoid that distinction and finish with ELEVEN wins. He was still a real nice role player even as a journeyman, all the way up to his time in Phoenix. I always wondered why he fell off so drastically. That 1992 draft is still my favorite all time. Only two true greats but the depth of quality players is staggering. Harold Miner is the only lottery bust, and you don't find another true bust out til Randy Woods fron LaSalle. A ton of great role players and stunted stars (Walt Williams, Todd Day, Laphonso Ellis, Clarence Weatherspoon, Oliver Miller, etc etc)
JC, we need a Lloyd Daniels video!! "Stunt Number One, arrested at a crack house..." lmao
I was just talking about him yesterday also

Man he carried Ohio St in the ‘92 tournament, but ran into Michigan and the fab five in the Elite Eight.
Had the perfect size and skill set. Better coaching early on and you never know what he could have been.
Man we need Josh Smith on here.
Josh Smith & Nolan Smith
I kno
Yes. Dude should been first ballot HOF.
Mister Mann nah that’s a stretch
@@versatillion15 Its not. Dude had huge talent. He was also great on defense when he wanted to be as an individual defender and shot blocker. Dude was something else when motivated...(and when he wasn't bricking threes)
I knew about the whole Toni Braxton drama but as much as I follow/love hoop, I never knew it was his negative "jacket" that led to him playing for so many teams. The unfortunate thing about him, Jamal and Jason never working out is that stars drafted into what could ultimately be super-teams STILL cannot learn from this experience, put aside their attitudes/immaturity and chase that ring. Russ, Harden, and KD were an updated version of this trio. Three former MVP's and future HOF'ers also couldn't make it work for damn near the same reasons, when they could've put it all together and had 1-2 chips before leaving OKC...Great story brotha.
It's funny you made this video I meet Jim Jackson in 00',when he played for Atlanta Hawks at Lenox mall. We talked for about ten minutes about basketball and J.R. Rider.
What did he say about JR? I always wondered about their relationship. JR Rider straight up imploded in Atlanta lol.
@@DJRashadHayes his relationship with J.R. was straight. The hawks didn't know what to do with him.
Another great talent white coaches didn’t know what to do with. You don’t blame no players for loses. I been coaching kids for years, Players win games, Coaches lose them. Coaching a team, is the physical representation of what’s going on inside the coaches mind, the players only doing what they’ve been told, so if they look like they don’t know what they doing that’s not the players fault, it’s the coaches fault. The coach is the Leader of the team. A player is a leader on the floor. How you expect a 20 something year old kid come in an lead your team to the promised land.
My favorite player of all time beginning with his days at Ohio St. It was so unfortunate to watch his fall from potential stardom. I was in middle school when he got drafted in 92. I always explain to people how good he could have been. I had the opportunity to chat with him on Twitter and I am FB friends with his son Traevon. I wish he would get into coaching.
I was a big fan during his college playing days. He was a huge star ⭐️ back then. I used to call him Jimmy Jacko.
JKidd can do no wrong. He took those sorry Nets to the finals twice. JKidd was a great leader. I'm glad he won a ring in 2011
Buckeye and Jim Jackson fan here. Loved watching Jimmy and wanted him to be a star so bad. I feel like you make some of the best points for why he didn't, but I do think there was more to it. And I do think he was some of his reputation was unfair. But life ain't fair it proves you gotta treat each opportunity like its your last. This was a great watch my brotha. Look forward to more 👊
Jim Jackson appeared on Teen Summit back in the day, and broke down those same misconceptions that was put on his jacket
That episode was my favorite on the show
The Toni Braxton controversy was just a slick way for shorty to sell "Secrets"

Kidd and Jackson were unbelievable!! Another great video I love these so much!
jj matured as a man over the years. fate has a way guiding us thru a journey. his tv career might turn out 2 b better than his playing career. he was fundamentally sound. he wasn't ridiculously gifted athletically, but he had enough. i met him once while attending OSU. he probably could have modeled, if he didn't already .good video
As a sixer fan I remember being a kid loving jimmy Jackson looking back he reminded me of jimmy butler smooth game he had
JJ definitely had the it factor in being a solid NBA player. Based on what I remember in watching him, I think the injuries played a bigger role than meets the eye. Secondly, I feel that management and coaches often have an expectation of leading scorers to automatically be leaders period. Leading in stats does not always translate to being "the main guy" in the locker room. From a subjective standpoint, should he have been a better leader? Perhaps. But sometimes team dynamics and mixing up various personalities and egos make it challenging for any leader or potential one. The Dallas team should have definitely made way more noise than they did. Both JJ and Mash were scoring and rebounding machines and no one was nicer with the assists than J Kidd...
Great video as always 👍 Do one on Roy Tarpley. Heads ain't ready!
one of the best college players ever thanks for the video..
This is a stunted growth I 100% agree with. Jim Jackson had game.
Jimmy Jackson was dope at Ohio State and should've been a star in the NBA. He had good statistical seasons but it never clicked but he could ball. The rumors about his attitude were known to fans like me back in the day without social media. He was very talented.
I went to Macomber and KNOW Jim to be an even BETTER person than a basketball player AND tight end. And yes definitely his ankle injury took his explosiveness .... Overall good video bro....
Met him when he was holding out for his first contract with Dallas. Had a nice chat. Good dude.
Loving this one thanks for sharing very information blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Jimmy Jackson was used to be the man in high school and college; in the NBA, when he found players who were more experienced and who wanted to give him advice, he probably did not take it too well, he was used to being the one who led the team and nobody questioning his decisions. Just an hypothesis
Yup. Just needed some mentoring from a vet. Wasn't a good enough leader to come in and lead right away

Jimmy was nice asf.
Oooh this is a good one. I always wondered what happened with him. That former Sacramento rookie of the year player too.
good video. The 3 J's were the shyt. wish they woulda stayed together longer tho. it's a shame what happened to JJ man smmfh. he was the truth. i think his story is similar to Joe Smith and Kenny Anderson where if they woulda stayed on the teams that drafted them, they may have been consistent all stars
Broooooooo you’re THAT DUDE !!! U never disappoint 👊🏽🏀🐐
The best unbiased player in depth channel out there. 💯
Kenny Battle, Kerry Kittles and Anderson Hunt... I'm waiting on those three!!!!
Randolph Childress
I’m going to start using that “reputation jacket” analogy. Great video!!!
I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Sonics and Blazers fan. Japanese-American. I remember in 1992-93, Jim Jackson was linked to Seattle in trade rumors. Maybe, Doug Christie and the 1994 lottery pick (from the Sixers) the Sonics had (which they used to get Kendall Gill).
Not long ago I was listening to an NBA game while doing chores and the analyst was making great points and he had a lot of charismatic energy behind the microphone. At the end of the broadcast I found out it was none other than Jimmy Jackson! I hated JJ for being a reason for breaking up that young corps in Dallas with Kidd and Mashburn. And as this video demonstrated, he never lived up to the hype he got. But it looks like he found his niche as an NBA analyst. Good for him.
I remember meeting Jim Jackson at a Warehouse Music store at the Beverly Center back in the day,I asked him what happened to the 3Js and he politely declined to talk about it but he was a cool dude
JJ was a true baller. Any team he landed on saw a positive impact on the team. Loved him on my Heat! Don't know if u did there stories yet(Lou Roe, Junior Burrough)
Triple j ranch. I still watch those games
Another great video Brodie keep it up & keep dropping this great videos💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Anyway to anybody that’s watching this remember y’all, Keep Going & Be Safe 🤟🏾💯
I loved the JJJ ranch back in the 90s and Jimmy Jackson was my favorite
Jim Jackson was a beast i remember fam from the early 90s.
4:05 Hold up... look at the stat line from Mutombo! And 6 blocks too!
Man your Videos really and truly put my stressed out mind at ease...your a saviour for my mental health..Peace Mate from Aus✌️
I love your Channel can you do a video on Charles Jones from Liu Brooklyn
It's a crime this trio couldn't make it work. As a teen, I thought this would be the real big ticket to go to when they came to town. J Kidd could've even had a higher scoring average with big threats like JJ and JM to free him up for better lay in opportunities. This legit could have been the next showtime.
Yo I love stunted growth but how you not going to do one on Jamal mashburn. Monster mash was a problem. Glen Robinson to. One at time tho. Lol.
As a die-hard Blazers fan born in Seattle in 1973, I remember after the Blazers' surprising breakout 1998-99 season, he asked for a trade, because "He didn't want to play a role." He got traded to terrible Atlanta, and averaged his 18 ppg, all right, but was always losing.
Can u do Calbert Cheaney, Damon Bailey, Shawn Respert, Steve Smith
TOLEDO OHIO IN THIS THANG CUZZO 💯
Hell yeah 419er
Hell yeah 419er
T -Town Throw -Down
Do one on Lawrence Funderburke but cover all the facts.
I met him in 2017 on the 4th of July at Manhattan Beach. He was Nicole Murphy, he was super chill we chopped it up for a minute real nice guy, and Nicole Murphy is fine as hell lol
I always wondered why a player with the skill set of Jim Jackson became a journeyman and the his lack of maturity as you illustrated shows why. Like you said, once a player gets a certain reputation it's hard to shake. See Dwight Howard.
Some folks around the league thought that about Chauncey as well.
@@dwlc4288 Chauncey certainly righted himself at Detroit. Some are pushing him for the Hall, he comes up a little short for that for me.
@@Amick44 I would say when he got Minnesota he was starting to shred it and it completely came off while in Detroit.
J/J was my favorite player back in tha day,& im still looking for his barber,that edge up stayed crispy!!
My cousin shawn Harvey played behind on the mavs 90s era man smh
Heard of him. How is he now?
@@MrTone075 hes good aint seem him n a year but we talk on Facebook.... we got the same name lolol
@@Armani_Vis Gotcha.
Keep in mind, his actual 1st Stunt, was the NBA Contract negotiations he had with Dallas. He tried to use the Nike shoe deal as leverage and he didn't sign til season started...ijs
Jimmy Jack was straight, him, Kidd, and Mashburn could have went places if they'd stayed together. I remember playing NBA Jam back in the days, they were one of my faves to play with. I use to mix them up like Kidd and Jackson, Kidd and Mashburn, Jackson and Mashburn and all that. Salute!
Do you have the story of tom googs?
Hell yeah i just requested this
I thought he was going to be the next legendary 2 guard he did last over a decade in the NBA.
I was so excited for that Mavericks team in the 90s with Kidd, Mashburn, and Jackson, but ultimately disappointed. They should have been fun and exciting to watch.
he held out his rookie year

Say what you will about JJ and Mash, during their time they were matchup nightmares 4r4r. Beat you inside and beat you outside. Am I right about it?
IMPORTANT FACT: don't know if you can add in edits but there was HUGE STUNT his rookie year because he was holding out for more money as a rookie. So he missed over HALF THE SEASON healthy and got a late start. It affected his rep and career momentum. I don't think there was rookie salary scale back then and stuff like that is why they might've started them.
Two draft picks from the 1992 NBA Draft are an answer to this trivia question. Who were the last Laker players to wear 8 and 24, before Kobe. Doug Christie and Jim Jackson.
You should do a video on another 1992 Draft player, Harold Miner. Nicknamed Baby Jordan at USC, he was a bust in the NBA!
Great job Scottie @ 6:33
Notifications gang! Do Austin Daye next!
I want to hear about John Wallace... he was supposed to save my Knicks.
LOL. With all due respect to Wallace and his tourney performance, no one thought that. Possibly die hard Cuse fans, but no one else
They hyped him up with Mashburn and Kidd . That is a reason I started following the Dallas Mavericks.
This guy was nice.
This was like one of my favorites from back in the gap. All the way from the 3 j's
Damn he could play people forget
