Mark Jackson and Stephen Curry definitely still text each other. The Golden State Warriors point guard was always Jackson’s biggest, most outspoken supporter. That hasn’t changed in the wake of M-Jax’s firing.

To reward those fans, the ‘Blue Splash’ [...]

The Golden State Warriors would follow Mark Jackson anywhere. Into to an erupting volcano? Yes. Into the local mall on Black Friday? Yup.
