Stephen Jackson recently called out Sebastian Telfair for his comments about Kobe Bryant, expressing his frustration and disappointment in Telfair’s remarks. Jackson criticized Telfair for seeking attention through negative comments about other athletes, specifically targeting Kobe Bryant.

“Hey, man to all the athletes that might go through hard times that their career don’t go the way they want to go. Just don’t be Sebastian Telfair, dog. Okay? Don’t be him.” 

“So anxious and so greedy to be, have some attention that he just walking around saying anything on our show, talking about Chris Paul and everybody. Now you’re going to say stuff about Kobe like bro. Come on, bro.”

“Like what, what, what are you gaining from that? What type of attention do you think you gained it from that, bro? Like that’s the weakest s**t in the world to even mention the dead about what’s like, that’s crazy, bro.”

“But you can’t be mad at people for the mistakes you made for the decisions you made. That’s sad when I’m off, I got to bring up other people to make herself look better because he ain’t got shit going on and he ain’t doing nothing to be proud of. I got to cut this weak shit out. Do not be Sebastian Telfair.”

In his statement, Jackson urged athletes who might face difficult times or whose careers don’t go as planned to avoid becoming like Telfair. He emphasized that seeking attention by spreading baseless claims about others is not the way to handle personal struggles. Jackson’s primary concern was the disrespect shown towards Kobe Bryant, who is no longer alive to defend himself. He expressed his disbelief that Telfair would stoop to such a level, calling it the “weakest” behavior.

Jackson’s message was clear: athletes should not seek validation or recognition by tarnishing the reputation of others, especially those who are not alive to respond.

Jackson’s comments were a direct response to a story Telfair shared about Kobe, implying that Kobe engaged in infidelity during his marriage without providing any evidence to support his claims. Jackson took issue with Telfair’s approach, accusing him of trying to gain attention by making unfounded accusations against a deceased individual.

Stephen Jackson’s criticism of Sebastian Telfair’s comments about Kobe Bryant highlights the importance of respect, accountability, and finding constructive ways to handle personal challenges without resorting to negative and unfounded accusations against others.
