Ranked these performances based on the pressure and value of Stephen Jackson's shots.
#7 (23 Mar 2008 Regular Season): Captain Jack lights up the Lakers for 31 points on 6 threes, 2 of them in the final 40 secs. Before this, the Warriors had blown a 26 point lead. Jackson's first 3-pointer gave the Warriors a 112-108 lead. After Kobe Bryant's 3-pointer with 30 secs left drew the Lakers within one, Jackson connected from the top of the key with 8.1 seconds left to put the game away.
#6 (7 Jan 2008 Regular Season): S-Jax makes it rain late in the game including 12 points in overtime for the W against the Spurs.
#5 (11 Feb 2008 Regular Season): Jackson scored a season-high 41 points, hitting the go-ahead 3-pointer and getting 10 of the Warriors' 12 straight points in the final minutes of a stunning 120-117 victory over the Washington Wizards recovering from a 23 point deficit from the 1st half. Jackson's 3-pointer with 55.6 seconds to play gave Golden State its first lead since the opening minute.
#4 (6 Jun 2012 Game 6 WCF): Stack 5 buckets 6 three pointers out of 7 attempts finishing with 23 points, all FGA from behind the arc for the Spurs in the elimination Game 6 of the Western Conference Finals. Despite his shooting performance though, the Spurs lose the game and series after which many considered was a poorly reffed game.
#3 (3 May 2007 Game 6 WC Playoffs R1): Baron Davis knew his tender hamstring would limit him, so Stephen Jackson stepped up to the elimination challenge. The Warriors used a third-quarter 18-0 run, sparked by Stephen Jackson's 13 straight points en route to 33 points and a franchise playoff record 7 tres out of 8 attempts to finish Dallas to become the first #8 seed to win a best-of-7 series in the first round, and just the third overall in NBA history. The Warriors also won their first playoff series since 1991.
#2 (29 May 2003 Game 6 WCF): San Antonio outscored Dallas 34-9 in the 4th quarter and had an amazing 23-0 run in the 4th to turn a 13 point deficit into a 10 point lead. Stephen Jackson scored 11 points during the run, finishing with 24 points (5-7 from the arc) to eliminate the Mavs.
#1 (15 Jun 2003 G6 NBA Finals): Stephen Jackson hits a trio of huge 4th quarter 3-pointers with the elimination game going neck and neck, his second three giving the Spurs their first lead of the night against the Nets on route to the NBA championship.
