    Those were his words when he was interviewed before the comencement of the celebrity game on Friday night.

    He was asked by the ESPN lady about his experience as a Houston Rocket and what was his take on playing on a team with such talent laden team level (not exact words). Then Mark responded with that...... He went ahead to say something along the lines of what JVG expects from him. I was like woh! He did not just say that - did he?

    Did anybody else here this? Did anyone tape this game/interview?.

    I think Mark Jackson should keep his old a** in Venice beach where the wind veloscity helps him get his shot to the basket.

    Jaskson's shot is old and busted.

    I thought he was talking about his celebrity team when he said that?

    I'm sorry but I'm 99% sure he said that in reference to the celebrities on his team.

    It is possible that I misunderstood MJackson but I doubt it. I strongly doubt it. But I stand corrected if we can find someone who taped the celebrity game so that we can find out exactly what Mark said.

    One thing to ponder as well - after saying "We have some players who think they can play", he went ahead to say what JVG expected from him. Now why would he be talking about JVG's expection of him if the ESPN reporter is talking about his celebrity game team mates. I am 100% sure he was refering to some of his Houston Rockets team mates.

    jackson was 1,000,000% referring to his celebrity team. the only thing he said about jvg was "coach wanted me to stay in shape over the break and this was the only run i could find" or something very close to that. he was just joking around about his team and needing to be in shape with the other comment.

    nothing to see here, move along.

    Ya'll do realize that I don't give 2 sh*ts that he was responding to all of those celebs. I just thought it was as good of time as any to talk about his horrid shot.

    i'm always up for bashing mark's shot. i think i've seen him take like 11 of his 13 3's and i have still yet to see one make it over the front of the rim. he had one each in the SA and lakers game that were short. apparently he just refuses to shoot it harder.
