The best off the dribble jump shooter I have ever seen. The quickest release I have ever seen. He could get his shot wherever and whenever he wanted. He was the first player Id ever saw shoot a 3 pointer on a fast break. He was so NICE.
@guyfroml What about Judaism? Is the God of the Jews not a real god? They don't even believe in Jesus, but based on your logic their God is not real. However, without Judaism, Christianity wouldn't have come into the world. Think about that one for a second.
chris jackson had that tick and when he started twitching your ass was really in trouble. too bad when the nuggets finally got dikembe and upset seattle that he was on the bench and robert pack was ballin out
Much quicker of a player than Steph, he also dropped 3's in peoples faces. Not like todays NBA where ur just open and shoot. He created his own shot, did u not watch the video?
Hey I grew up watching this phenomenal athlete. When they mention steph curry I laugh to me it's a joke. If Chris jackson would have played in this era with the rules regulations and style they play with today. He would be mvp of the league every year lol. His skills are unmatched he would probably out shoot steph right now today and he is 50 plus years old lolbs
Look this footage is over 20 yrs ago people the 3pt line was further back at the time. The game was much slower. The game was played mostly half court and most of the time he was walking the ball up the court. You had 10 secs to get the ball across half court. Today you have 8 secs the game is played at a much quicker pace and the game is designed to score. MUCH more 3's are attempted by everyone not only the great shooters who should be shooting them. With all that being said I could easily see Chris jackson averaging 5 to 7 3's a game along with 40pts in todays fast paced game !!
Here's the question: How did LSU have Shaq, Chris Jackson AND Stanley Roberts on the same team and not go undefeated. NCAA was WAAAAAAAAAAY better back then. Arkansas had Todd Day, Lee Mayberry AND Oliver Milller. Alabama had Latrell Sprewell, Robert Horry and James Robinson. And that's just the SEC! I didnt forget Alan Houston either.
he was. 18+ ppg and team leader in assists, should've been an all star. Unfortunately that anthem thing got him blackballed. With today's rules that NBA has with no handchecking, he would absolutely dominate every single PG in the league offensively. Without question.
@hich101 The God of Jesus Christ is the only true God. As Christ said "there is no way to the father but through the son." You, Chris and others can believe as you feel, but Christianity, which decends directly from Judiasm, is the oldest faith on the planet - the belief in the Judeo-Christian God. "Our" God says to come to the light of the lamb of God, not strap bombs to your body and murder innocent lives. And our God teaches to forgive...can you point out where Islam ever preaches that?
@guyfroml What about Judaism? Is the God of the Jews not a real god? They don't even believe in Jesus, but based on your logic their God is not real. However, without Judaism, Christianity wouldn't have come into the world. Think about that one for a second.
I watched him since he was in high school (Gulfport Ms). I was a student at Jackson State. His high school played for the state championship at the Jackson Coliseum. I knew he was going to the NBA back then.
@guyfroml Stating that Jesus Christ is the only true God and then backing that up by quoting Jesus in the Bible is like saying Domino's Pizza is the best Pizza in the world and then quoting the CEO of Domino's to prove your claim.
@guyfroml Wrong again! Born and raised Catholic and I go to Church pretty much every week. But hey, call me an "idiot" and you automatically win this internet pissing match. Good for you!
@paperboy215....the distraction for him was that he DIDNT FOCUS on bball and "play the game." He let his personal/inner beliefs get in the way and it DAMAGED HIS CAREER....this guy could take on michael jordan and iverson... no problems...
this guy was AMAZING!!!! forget Iverson...Chris Jackson could score 60pts if he had to....problem was Denver tried to make him a point guard (BIG MISTAKE) and then he got distracted with religion, the flag, and politics...

Greatest College Basketball FROSH of ALL TIME!! Too bad the punk azz NBA blackballed him.
ICE! ICE! BABY!!! TOO COLD! TOO COLD!!!
Name one guard in the last 20 years who could that in college

What kid can give you 49 points today at this level of baskeball. Chris Jackson was a once in a lifetime gem.
One of the best college players I've seen, I like shooters he was fun to watch
Much quicker of a player than Steph, he also dropped 3's in peoples faces. Not like todays NBA where ur just open and shoot. He created his own shot, did u not watch the video?
this is why I could never get too hyped over steph curry we've already seen his type of game before.
+superbthesonofman ok..... cause this guy is a nba champ and mvp right???? also can he shot from 30+ feet every game
+aliouneV2 lmao you asking me that question let's me know that you don't know a dam thing about basketball!
BACK THEN WHEN THESE GUYS GOT TO THE NBA
COACHES LIMITED THEIR GAME TO FIT THE BS SYSTEM
TODAY THEY DONT

He played in the NBA for nine years and made nearly 20 million dollars. He then played about 7 years overseas. I think things turned out ok for him.

He had such perfect form. And then his release was so quick, unstoppable at times.

phil jackson got me here
I think we have to start talking greatest collegiate point guard ever at this point.
Phil Jackson knows why im here
Everyone having a hard time guarding him because he is explosive.
I'm just amazed at how much bigger Stanley Roberts was compared to Shaq
Len Bias by default. but Chris is my all time favorite collegiate player...
Yep that was the 1st time I caught him and he became my fav player...still is!!
Lol, I love how he calls a play then shoots! Its like the play calling is a decoy
Still playing at age 40 in japan and has battled tourettes syndrome along the way. After Pistol Pete the best college scorer ever!
@akrivosdiavolos73 you don't get distracted with religion. a way of life can't be a distraction.
he was simply amazing!

Torches the opposition
One of the best guards i'd ever seen hands down period
One of ONE great shooting guards to ever lace them up. Also one of the smartest.
I watched every game as a kid growing up and he was a goat in college 😮.
Still mad he chose LSU over Georgetown
OG Steph.
He had a NBA game in college for sure he was way above the talent on the court and college teams were good then
He was a tremendous ballplayer!
Not nearly as quick and can't create for himself as well.
Damn yeah a baller yeah he used to spray jumpers awesome
Oh my goodness, that crossover at 0:40 was nasty
The last one is so disrespectful. Love cj
He gets his shot off so quick.. #legends
Sounds like some Rex games.
all good until..
I watched him since he was in high school (Gulfport Ms). I was a student at Jackson State. His high school played for the state championship at the Jackson Coliseum. I knew he was going to the NBA back then.
This dude was 🔥

Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf, may Allah bless and protect u.
Islam is the deen of HAQ!
Allah loves u and i love u in sake of Allah! asalammalekoum wr wb akhi!

one of the best shooting, efficient pg's ever to lace em' up. In any era! would most definitely be a perrinial all-star statistically
Chris Jackson is my cousin
@mike77877 Thats was up man., tell him I watch his highlights before my games!. And his moves work!.
that was so nasty at the end the turnaround 3! I say chris jackson is better than kobe
nuthin too bad. He's a real man. Most in the NBA are certainly NOT.
tHANKS FOR REMINDING ME. tHE KIDD WAS THE COLDEST... hOW WE LIVE IN THE MOMENT?
@guyfroml Well, if you're a Christian then you'll forgive him, right?
he was great... too bad about the way things went for him in the nba.
Probably the greatest college basketball player since Pistol Pete.
Man we used 2 go @ it in the Field house, Gym Armory
I thought he was gonna be a star in the NBA also.
Why are there religious comments on this video?
Who the hell is Jim...what the fuc is terex??
Για να δούμε, τί μέλλει γενέσθαι;
He was incredible
hard to beileive he had tourettes
Chris Jackson is genius!
He was simply amazing...
HOW MUCH DID HE FINISH WITH??
49
Fess
curry better
+Liam Mahoney annoying curry fans!!! piece of shit!!!
2.0 jackson :))
Career yes, talent no. Curry cant create his own shot off the dribble as Chris Jackson could.
