but you disregarded that as well as his experience as
Pres. of Basketball Operations for Phoenix. Not sure why,
it's silly.

why is it silly? Because guess what Mark Jackson's credentials were
prior to landing the G.S. job? TV Analyst OMG'Z!!

>Kerr was a great, great, great jumpshooter. That's what he

>He didn't deserve these opportunities, any of them (coach or

This also is non-sense. How many great former player have turned into great coaches? It's a different paradigm and it doesn't follow that just because you were a great player, that it's an indicator of how you will do as a coach. Kerr's basketball IQ is not wholly contingent upon his player experience as a great jumpshooter. Silly.

>>get a head-coach slot. I just think the abrupt and
>>controversial
>>manner in which Jackson was ousted made Kerr's hire seem
>>bitter.
>
>This is exactly right, and its the entire point: Jackson
>built that team. He didn't deserve to lose his job.

again, nobody's disputing that. But that doesn't mean you get to lobby cheap shots at his successor just because you don't like him and he YT.

And
>hiring
>a guy with no credentials to claim all the credit is...hmmm.
>It was a 50 win team already...more than that if Bogut and
>Lee are healthy the whole year.

What were Mark Jackson's credentials prior to taking the G.S. job?

Oh that's right - TV analyst.
