Jackson, who will back up Reggie Miller , admits there were plenty of times last season when he wished he had taken San Antonio's offer. He knows he could have blown out a knee in Atlanta. But he also says the urgency of the situation helped bring out the best in him.

Like I always say, when pressure comes I make love to it.
