San Antonio Spurs castoff Stephen Jackson, made an appearance on ESPN’s First Take today and talked about his falling out with his former team, the NBA Finals. and he even dropped a freestyle for the crew.
When asked if he thought the Spurs could win the series, Jackson said he thought they could because in his opinion, LeBron and Dwyane Wade are scared to shoot the ball.
Lost in all the hoopla following the blowout loss on Tuesday, is the fact the Lebron and D Wade look like tentative shooters and until they start knocking down some outside shots, the most effective part of their game which is driving to the hoop will be nullified by the Spurs’ compact defense.
