I'm a die hard UNLV fan but I remember watching this game live and after it was over I was a young kid shooting three pointers pretending to be Chris Jackson...What a game!!
Damn... we will never see college basketball games like this again with all the one and done athletes... this one game had a NBA all-star team playing in it at the same time!!
The UNLV full-court press instilled fear in their opponents. That 90’s UNLV was my favorite college team. Chris Jackson aka Mahmoud Abdul Rauf was the player I emulated growing up. He was unstoppable. You can tell he was special. He forced players to play at his pace. He never looked out of control or pressured. He was shooting 48% on midrange jump shots and 3 pointers so opposing point guards had to bring their A game or get embarrassed. He was most definitely one of the best pure scorers in college basketball history.
I saw this game live on TV and it was unbelievable!!! I actually got to watch the UNLV team in person as they were in the same conference at the time with my UCSB Gauchos and we were the last team to beat them before they went on their run and Destroyed Duke by 30 points in the National Championship! Will always remember that game and that Running Rebels team!
Man that team should have at least made the Final Four. Chris Jackson was nasty, but UNLV had a squad that year and they were deep on the bench...just ask Duke! LOL
Stacy Golden, Sr they ran into lethal weapon 3 of Georgia tech in the second round with the smoothest freshman guard ever ~ Kenny Anderson. It’s on RUclips; excellent game.
@@jaleelmuhammad9659 oh yeah bro I remember that no doubt the homie Dennis Scott was on that team from my home State Northern Virginia he was a three-point bomber back in the day..... that back court also had Kenny Anderson and Brian Oliver that was a lethal backcourt for sure.... they won the ACC tournament that year they beat my UVA Cavaliers in the tournament finals
That's why Phil Jackson was comparing Steph Curry to Chris Jackson.but I Think M.A.R would have been better in this era he was unstoppable anywhere on the court.
My son is already into basketball and not even 2, he was yelling shoot every time Chris took a shot, lol But when he comes of age I will bring him here to peep all these Chris Jackson vids and break down his game so he can know how to play it right, he was ahead of his time for real! Dude would've averaged 35 in today's NBA. Thanks for all the uploads @MrSterlingfoster
35??? Are you kidding??? You're being far too nice. Jackson woulda broken 40 per night easily with the laxed rules on defense, and hand checking eliminated. One of the purest shooters I've ever witnessed.
@@michaellundy5238 his freshman year I saw him live when LSU played at Maryland, and he gave them 51 at Cole Field House. I saw him weeks later vs my Georgetown Hoyas, when we had fellow freshman Alonzo Mourning Alonzo Mourning. All he did was give us 37. We had no answers for that dude, and back then Georgetown was a year in/year out Top 3 team in defensive field goal percentage. Needless to say we lost that game, which was a nationally televised game in the Super Dome.
Chris Jackson was like Allen Iverson before AI but he was a better shooter and more accurate but not as athletic but remarkably quick as well. He and Timmy Hardaway both had those devastating in and out crossover dribble but Chris would ALWAYS pull up with accurate form. IT's sad how the NBA dogged him because he was coming into his prime. And LJ was like Lebron in that he had that freakish build and athleticism but could put the ball on the floor and score of shoot.
His game was more similar to Steph Curry than A.I. If Curry would have came up during that era, his nearly perfect comparison would have been Chris Jackson.
Different skillsets. Jackson was a shooter. Had nowhere near the athletic abilities of AI. Jackson was more akin to curry. One of the best midrange shooters I ever saw - especially the college level. He also was like one of the best free throw shooters ever too. College AI just did what he wanted too lol. And for a guy 5’10-jumped out the GYM and was the fastest and toughest guy on the court
Pete Maravich Chris Jackson Shaquille O'neal Bob Pettit Stanley Roberts Will Wade will bring LSU back to the glory days and bring in players the caliber of the players above. We will never see a player like Chris Jackson again though. The guy wasn't human. Only player that compares is Curry but Jackson was quicker.
LJ was an absolute beast. At 6-6 250 he was able to more than hold his own against Shaq and Roberts however I shudder to think how it would've gone with Shaq as a junior.
Damn... some of the names thrown out while watching this... Hank Gathers...Gary Payton, and then we have Shaq, Roberts, Jackson vs Anthony and LJ... a shame Plastic Man wasn't playing. Would've truly like to see his defense vs Jackson's offense. 1990 was a special year for college basketball.
What I'd love is for someone out there to have the legendary game between LSU and Loyola Marymount, I know there's one with highlights of Shaq's triple double in that game, but I'm talking about the whole game.
I'm here after watching Mahmoud Abdul Rauf aka Chris Jackson documentary, "Stand". He was so underrated and great. I wish the NBA didn't blackball him.
David Butler actually got clearance to play. Augmon was the only one who sat. I think a great game woulda been even better had Augmon been allowed to suit up.
Testos Tyrone dale brown wasnt suspect ur full of it, why dnt u investigate how stacked the top college teams in that time period were. duke, nc, georgetown, ucla, unlv etc stacked!!!
I'm going to answer the 34 year old question in 2024, How did LSU not win it all. 1st of all LSU did not have a True Leader on the Team, a guy to take over, Shaq was a Freshman, Stanley was good in Spurts, Chris was Amazing, however he wasn't the Vocal Leader, and Dale was not a Typical x's and o's coach he was a Great Motivator, so once they entered the tournament they could never get far enough especially with the talent that they had. So now the question has been answered!!!
Wow, imagine if Jackson stayed through his senior year. The 91-92 team would have have Jackson as a senior, Shaq as a junior, and Roberts as a junior. They would have destroyed everyone. Hell, they probably would have won it the year before when Duke upset undefeated UNLV.
Just as Dickie V stated at the end, an era of hoops where greats in other sports tuned in to college bball. MrSterlingfoster how about AI (Georgetown) vs. Rasheed and Stackhouse (UNC)-sweet sixteen '95- got that in your archive?
Without the back injury, LJ would have been better than LBJ. Better low post arsenal, tougher player, more flexible and fluid aloft, hang time, double-clutches, same hops but not as stiff as LBJ, more athletic and FAR STRONGER (he was a bulldozer with his back to the basket unlike LeBron who is strong only facing the basket), and more explosive overall, both in upper and lower body. LBJ is a natural SF and LJ a PF.
You do realize LBJ is about 3 inches taller and 20 pounds heavier. They are 2 totally different players so to say this is better than the other makes no sense. Now if you compared LJ to BARKLEY MALONE ETC now you would be creating a proper comparison.
Stacey Augmon was there best defender but he was suspended this game for not paying a $5 hotel bill. The outcome would have been different with him guarding Jackson.
soglv It wouldn’t have been any different, considering that Chris Jackson dropped over 30 points against Stacey Augmon and Greg Anthony in a game won by LSU against UNLV during the 1988-89 season. Augmon couldn’t do shit with Jackson. CJ lit both their asses up like a Christmas tree and that was before Shaquille O’Neal even arrived at LSU. Augmon couldn’t guard Jackson in his best dreams, bruh.
When they hit the draft it was ... 1. Larry Johnson 2. Gary Payton 3. Chris Jackson I’m a Nuggets fan and even though GP had the longer career and more accolades , loved having CJ - Mahmoud Abdul Rauf with the Nuggets. I’ll have to look for some GP at Oregon State as I can’t imagine how good he must’ve been to pass up on CJ for Seattle.
UNLV WAS AMERICA's TEAM AFTER THE 1990 NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP BLOWOUT OF THE DUKE BLUE DEVILS BASKETBALL PROGRAM :) SALUTE 2 THE GREAT GAMBLERS OF THE LAS VEGAS CASINO RESORTS!
Everyone mentioning Augmon was out. Let's keep it real. Stacy was an outstanding defensive player but CJ was unguardable in college. Nobody had an answer for this man. Avg almost 30 points as a freshman in the SEC. Won't see that again.
@@stephenheath8465 True. Can't create his own shot off the dribble, play point, create for others and not as high as basketball IQ. But he would've been great.

The Shooter Than Curry And Many Say He Is The Best Ever And I Say It Was Chis Jackson And His Careers was cut Short Because Of Racisms In This Country And In The NBA Period
Chris Jackson aka Mahmoud Abdul Rauf is my favorite college basketball player of all time.....bar none...
I made a bunch of $ betting with lsu this year... Effed up how the nba shortened Rauf career...
He was a baaaaaad man
He’s my favorite Basketball player of all time.
untouchable

I remember this game was a classic. 1990 one the greatest years in college basketball history
Kenny Anderson Dennis Scott played this year as well college was fucking loaded this year
How does a college team with Chris Jackson, Stanley Roberts and Shaq not run the table?
the Coach. It wasn't the first time he had a squad that was primed to win it all.
@@castroleiro because Shaq and Stanley couldn't stay on the floor. They tried to block everything and that kept them in foul trouble.
Shaq was a freshman
Shaw was good, but raw. Roberts didn't pan out as planned, but had spurts.
Lethal weapon 3

Yea their cross over was similar. Tim was head and shoulders. Chris was a quick step in a different direction.
They dogged him cuz he pulled a kaepernick just saying
@@briandenapoli3250correction, Kaepernick pulled a Jackson, not the other way around...np.

Just makes you think of all the iconic college teams from this Era. LSU with Chris Jackson and Shaq, UNLV, Duke and Michigan of course with the fab 5.
Pete Maravich
Chris Jackson
Shaquille O'neal
Bob Pettit
Stanley Roberts
Will Wade will bring LSU back to the glory days and bring in players the caliber of the players above. We will never see a player like Chris Jackson again though. The guy wasn't human. Only player that compares is Curry but Jackson was quicker.
Larry johnson was beast
LJ was an absolute beast. At 6-6 250 he was able to more than hold his own against Shaq and Roberts however I shudder to think how it would've gone with Shaq as a junior.
Chris jackson finger rolled a three pointer. Hes the GOAT

plastic man aka Stacey Augmon
Chris Jackson ( Later known as Maghmoud Abdul Rauf ) Is my all-time favorite. LSU athelete, and the best shooter I've ever seen, pre Steph Curry
This was a good game, both teams with great players.
5:11 a finger roll 3, not something you see everyday!
jermaineonealnumber7 true
I saw that!
lol
What I'd love is for someone out there to have the legendary game between LSU and Loyola Marymount, I know there's one with highlights of Shaq's triple double in that game, but I'm talking about the whole game.
Larry Johnson was one of the most dominant grown man college basketball players I've ever seen.
I'm here after watching Mahmoud Abdul Rauf aka Chris Jackson documentary, "Stand". He was so underrated and great. I wish the NBA didn't blackball him.
UNLV won title that year!
By 30 points
This is when the NCAA was playing mind games with UNLV and suspended Stacey Augmon and David Butler for this game
Still would have lost with them.
Daryl Woodard shiiiiiidddd
David Butler actually got clearance to play. Augmon was the only one who sat. I think a great game woulda been even better had Augmon been allowed to suit up.
@@darylwoodard1054hell nah 😂 they would’ve won by 10
young shack didn't want nooooo prts of LJ
I wish i could be LJ. And get my hair and gold teeth like that lo!!! But im mexican!!! And 5,3. Lol
chingao....jajajajajaja
Stanley Roberts, Chris Jackson, Shaq. What happened to LSU basketball?
UNLV would go on to win the National Title that year, beating Duke by 30......A record that still stands.
Mahmoud was THE TRUTH and LJ a Man amongst boys!!!!
Stanley Roberts and Shaq with Jackson? LSU's coach was suspect.
They are currently suspect also.
Testos Tyrone dale brown wasnt suspect ur full of it, why dnt u investigate how stacked the top college teams in that time period were. duke, nc, georgetown, ucla, unlv etc stacked!!!
Chris Jackson shot too much but 50 50 90 percent he didnt shoot enough!lol
@@asilsweater they just beat Unlv
What's really going on?CJ. SHAQ AND ROBERTS?AND NOT WIN IT ALL?FIRE DALE BROWN
I'm going to answer the 34 year old question in 2024, How did LSU not win it all. 1st of all LSU did not have a True Leader on the Team, a guy to take over, Shaq was a Freshman, Stanley was good in Spurts, Chris was Amazing, however he wasn't the Vocal Leader, and Dale was not a Typical x's and o's coach he was a Great Motivator, so once they entered the tournament they could never get far enough especially with the talent that they had.

Keep Them Chris Jackson Video Coming Bro!!! Big Fan Of CJ
Hey Buddy, thanks for the vids...but you really gotta chill on the fade to black transitions.
Wow, imagine if Jackson stayed through his senior year. The 91-92 team would have have Jackson as a senior, Shaq as a junior, and Roberts as a junior. They would have destroyed everyone. Hell, they probably would have won it the year before when Duke upset undefeated UNLV.
Roberts was prop 48. Grades hurt him.

great upload. i dont know how it was edited but u dont need to fade in and out evertytime. its slow and for no reason. keep them comming
Agreed 100% - really kills the momentum to slowly fade to black after every play
Kenny Anderson was my favorite
Mandrick Brown Freshman Kenny Anderson vs. Freshman Lonzo Ball
When they hit the draft it was ...
1. Larry Johnson
2. Gary Payton
3. Chris Jackson
I’m a Nuggets fan and even though GP had the longer career and more accolades , loved having CJ - Mahmoud Abdul Rauf with the Nuggets.
I’ll have to look for some GP at Oregon State as I can’t imagine how good he must’ve been to pass up on CJ for Seattle.
Naw 1990 Derrick Coleman 1, then Payton and Chris Jackson. 1992 was LJ , 2. Kenny Anderson 3. Billy Owens.
Jackson beat arenas even he was already 50 years old

Hard to think of a video with O'niel that there is no name in the video
thanks @mr.sterlingfoster
givin Greg Anthony that work.
This is the first time seeing Anthony get the business at the college level.
No Kenny gave him trouble too tho Hunt was Kenny the most.

But not win it all?with CJ.SHAQ. AND ROBERTS.WHATS REALLY GOING ON
Needs more flow.. hard to watch the fade to black after every score
That's my dawg
The original steph curry!
When college bball was real bball!
Guys stayed in school longer.
Larry Johnson giving Shaq the bidness
Between the legs and crossover again within a little over a second and the opposing guard is stumped and confused by Jackson like WTF?
Dale Brown couldn’t coach a lick - but boy could he recruit
LJ was a G.A.M
Love it
!
Ps Much Gratitude
Guess we are going to just ignore the fact they still had 2 secs left in regulation.
Back then the clock didn't stop after a basket in the final 2 minutes....at least not in college bball.
Young Cheryl Miller..👍🏾
UNLV 🏀
so many future nba players and Augmon was out!
Stacy Augmon didn’t play.
yep suspended for illegal phone usage :/
I was watching this game as a kid when I first seen LJ make that play at the ruclips.net/video/VLt5ZTG7b9g/видео.html. I was like dammit.
check out the refs and 1 call at 4:15 lol. Classic.
Grandmama horsed Shaq Chis Jackson did his thing against Greg Anthony and Anderson Hunt
Greg Anthony catching hell
The Shooter Than Curry And Many Say He Is The Best Ever And I Say It Was Chis Jackson And His Careers was cut Short Because Of Racisms In This Country And In The NBA Period
CJ absolutely abused Greg Anthony...he should of been arrested after the game for aggravated assault...

Larry Johnson and Chris Jackson my muslim brothers

No stacy augmon was the difference chris was getting his no
Matter who played true story..
