A chill in the air between Stephen Jackson and Kobe Bryant

Bryant was the last of the 10 starters to come onto the court. He gave a slap to four of the Warriors’ starter, including a hug for his former teammate Turiaf. Jackson was last. Bryant walked by and patted a stretching Jackson, who returned the gesture. No eye contact.

It’s clear the two aren’t friends.

More reason for the Cavs to want him!

Kobe and Jax puttin on the acts?

Standing on the moon
Where talk is cheap and vision true
Standing on the moon
But I would rather be with you
Somewhere in San Francisco
On a back porch in July
Just looking up to heaven
At this crescent in the sky

That would be a great rivalry if the Warriors were actually good.

I can really imagine a Jackson/Bryant rivalry if the Warriors faced the Lakers in the 2nd or 3rd round of the Playoffs. I know Jackson isn’t an all-star, but he could probably make clutch shots against the Lakers to add steam to the rivalry. Remember when Jack and Kobe were hitting back-to-back-to-back 3s against each other in the 07-08 season? What a great game.

The rivalry would have it’s best moments in crunch time, when Jackson’s at his best. But too bad the Warriors might not be that great this year; If only this rivalry happened when the We Believe team was still together.
