    The Kings' campaign came to a grinding halt two weeks ago in Seattle, with the club trying to contain Ray Allen and enemy elbows, all while trying to find itself on the fly. Jackson was as frustrated as anyone, shut out in three of the five first-round NBA playoff games.

    But he's still active, working daily at Basketball Town in Rancho Cordova and at the Kings' practice facility to the point sweat runs off his chin and elbows like a slow faucet drip. It can be argued Jackson has shortened his seasons because he's too involved, with little regard to life or limb. But he's convinced only rotten luck has haunted him, with a severe lower abdominal strain two years ago and a torn wrist ligament this season limiting the guard to a combined 75 games.

    So what does he do now? Gear down? Fat chance. To know Jackson is to understand he'd mow his lawn at a full sprint.
    "My injuries, they've been fluke, crazy stuff more than anything," Jackson said Monday afternoon. "I'll never tone my game down. Now out here, I won't try to block someone's shot as hard as an NBA game, but otherwise, I'm not slowin' down."</div>
