So to finally learn that all of what I thought was facts were speculations on TOP of speculations is just WILD! JJ had one of the most dynamic games that would translate in any era. I'm glad that he got a chance to speak on this uninterrupted in long-form what happened. Nowadays, Jackson's a talented sports broadcaster that shares great insights and analysis. But prior to this youtube vid, whenever I would see Jim Jackson..my first immediate thought would be: Damn, Toni Braxton really did a number on that team! Now I know better!

Jim Jackson, Kidd and Mashburn were all having fantastic seasons before Jackson got hurt. He was averaging 26 pts a game and well on his way to being an all star. After his injury he wasn't the nearly same. The explosiveness and lift that he had was gone and his play fair or not seemed more cautious in years following imho. Roy Tarpley's career is the greatest "what if" in Mavericks franchise history. Jim Jackson's is the second. Imvho.

Back then things was just left unsaid for the most part. And to be honest. That's not a bad rumor to be a part of...😂😂😂
