Stephen Jackson: The Spurs cut me for McGrady, if I were to grab that key rebound in G6

June 3 News Recently, former NBA player Stephen Jackson talked about the Spurs on the show "All The Smoke".

Jackson said: "We lost the Western Conference Finals last year. Before the playoffs began, Bobo cut me and brought in McGrady. None of them allowed McGrady to play. If I were there, I would definitely grab that rebound from G6 (Bosh)."

On June 18, 2013, the G6 Heat defeated the Spurs 103-100 overtime in the finals. In this game, Ray Allen, who played for the Heat at the time, hit a most critical third in NBA history, helping the Heat to drag the game into overtime in the Finals G6.

In the last 19.4 seconds, the Heat fell behind by 3 points, James missed a three-pointer, Bosh grabbed the key frontcourt rebound, and then handed the ball to Allen, who withdrew from the three-point line when receiving the ball, then pulled out the three-pointer. The whole move was completed in one go, and the ball hit the basket hollow. In the subsequent overtime, the Heat won the game with a strong momentum and defeated the Spurs in tiebreak to defend their title.
