Only a certain amount of people know how lethal Chris/Mahmoud was. :yes:

Always wondered what happened to him. I thought his ticks got the best of him cause he was always having multiple uncontrollable movements. Why did he get blackballed? Im assuming because he didnt want to conform to nba policies.

He was an incredible scorer (especially in college) but he was not nearly the pure shooter that Steph Curry is. It's not even close honestly.

:yes::yes::yes:

watched him on tv and in-person during his yrs at LSU.

he was an 'effortless' scorer, and he didn't have many 'off' shooting nights, if any.

it was really a matter of time before he went-da-fuck-off.

if chris jackson isn't close, who da fuck is?

SC is an awesome scorer, but cot damn man... he's not a basketball god. there have been other prolific shooters in this game.

some would even say walter ray allen is a better spot-up shooter.

:lol: CJ baked john stockton's ass and coach sloan made NO ADJUSTMENT to give him help. then, late he switched up and put hornacek on CJ and he got the "treatment" too.

as i said, and evidenced in this clip... dude was an 'effortless' scorer. nothing fancy, nothing flashy... just catch & shoot or break you down quick and release. plus, he had a great mid-range game too. his one drawback was driving to the rack and finishing. he was a small-ish player... wasn't his forte.

Thing that makes him special to me is how effortless his game was. Curry has mad handles, but a lot of times he needs like 5-6 dribbles to clear space. Not my man, who had that series whip wap, on quick move and buckets, not a whole lot of extra shit. I would be more frustrated guarding him than Steph honestly.

He sparked controversy for refusing to stand for the national anthem, and calling the Flag of the United States a symbol of oppression.

:lol::lol::lol:


You get blacklisted for speaking the truth?

Was some bullshit. Wonder why his people didn't fight harder for him?
 
Re: Steph Curry is amazing... Dude here, was possible the greatest shooter I've ever

This brotha came out here a few years back.

went into some local gym where kats were playing,some nuckle head from trinidad tried to challenge this guy.(not sure what he was thinking)


it got really ugly from there on for the non-thinking nuckle head.
basically the only time he touched the ball,was to check it.:lol:
the gym erupted.

this kat can can flat out shoot.

Seems like an open and shut case of restriction on freedom of religion.
Dude was sick with it though with his shooting.
I remember him on those Nuggets teams back in the 90s.
I think he had Tourette's Syndrome too and would twitch.
That might have also lead to his early retirement.
 
Re: Steph Curry is amazing... Dude here, was possible the greatest shooter I've ever

Man I remember that issue with him saluting the flag. :smh:
I must have been in middle school when that shit happened.

Blacklisted for life...

 
Re: Steph Curry is amazing... Dude here, was possible the greatest shooter I've ever

Chris Jackson/Mahmoud Abdul Rauf was an assassin with his shooting. I think he shot in the nineties with free throws too. Had a nice crossover too.
He did take medication but he said it made him sluggish/lethargic on the court so he would not take it but the ticks would come.
I think he did some playing overseas. There are some youtube vids of him still doing his thing in his forties.

I had a friend in college that had Tourette's Syndrome and he was a good shooter (not like Rauf was though) I found out later that a side effect of Tourettes is OCD. He had to shoot the ball the exact same way every time or it fucked with him.

Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf: A Portrait of Perfection
By Court Zierk , Correspondent Nov 12, 2009

Imagine being alone on a basketball court for hours. Left in seclusion long after your teammates have retreated to the showers and headed home. Physically exhausted beyond all bearable thresholds. Body aching to the point of near collapse.

Now imagine wanting to leave more than anything else. Wanting to put down that basketball. Wanting to change out of your sweaty clothes, and the shoes that now hurt your feet. Wanting to meet up with your friends. Wanting to be anywhere but where you’re at.

But, for some reason, IT won’t let you.

IT holds you there beyond your control. IT won’t let you leave until you take that basketball that you long to put down, and put it through the hoop 10 times in a row without so much as hitting the rim. IT holds you there until you demonstrate perfection.

And once perfection is achieved, IT lets go just as easily as IT took hold.

The IT I am referring to is a neuropsychiatric disorder of the brain called Tourette’s Syndrome that results in uncontrollable body movements and tics, and IT has haunted former NBA great Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf his entire life.

Born Chris Wayne Jackson on Mar. 9, 1969 in Gulfport, Mississippi, Abdul-Rauf was the middle of three boys born to Jacqueline Jackson, a cafeteria worker thought also to display the strange symptoms of the inherited disease.

Growing up in a poverty-stricken home with a single mother, Abdul-Rauf was known to frequent the city's playground basketball courts, often practicing for hours on end, shooting hundreds of free throws a day, meticulously perfecting the trajectory and arc on his shot and the way the ball would strike the net.

Making sure the ball didn't even touch the rim.

IT wouldn't let him leave these rundown courts until IT told him his shot was perfect.
In some patients, symptoms of Tourette's Syndrome manifest in such a way that the brain will establish unreasonable goals that simply must be achieved before feeling satisfied.

Drazen Petrovic, Reggie Miller, Steve Nash, Ray Allen, Larry Bird, to name a few. Chris/Mahmoud was a streaky shooter more in the vein of JR Smith. When he got hot, he was lethal, but he was inconsistent.

Damn i miss that era of pro ball...coppin' a couple of his jersey's asap.

petrovic = spot up shooter, ONLY.
reggie miller, i'd agree, but reggie's mid-range game was weaker and he was slower and needed multiple screens.
steve nash. :hmm:
ray allen, i'd agree... i'd call them equal.
larry bird was a forward... we're talking guards.

and the BEST comparison to CJ is actually Steph's father, Del Curry. :yes:

again, CJ's game was 'effortless.' he was more efficient with his moves to create enough space and swish... not a ton of dribbling and screens were needed.

School dem!

Abdul-Rauf was a streak freaking shooter period end of story.
 
Re: Steph Curry is amazing... Dude here, was possible the greatest shooter I've ever

I was a huge fan of his as a kid..I've always wondered what happened to him,until I got older......This is a prime example,of white folks denying racism exist.
 
Re: Steph Curry is amazing... Dude here, was possible the greatest shooter I've ever

Mark Jackson referenced him the other night during the broadcast, but I doubt the average NBA fan really knew/caught what is was talking about.
