"Is Mark Jackson an asshole or what?"


  

          

Adrian Wojnarowski ‏@WojYahooNBA 23m
Mark Jackson doesn't have one GSW front office ally who'll make a case to ownership to keep him. "He's on an island," league source says.

folk act like it's basically a foregone conclusion that he's getting fired. yeah he could stand to brush up on the Xs and Os shit but i thought he was doing a pretty good job w/ this roster.

One question: Is Mark the one who opted to rely on Andrew Bogut?
May 04th 2014
15
he was at least part of pushing Monta out, so yea kinda
May 04th 2014

      He gets along with Hunter. And spoke well enough of Erman
May 04th 2014

      Jackson kinda balked last off-season on an experienced asst.
May 04th 2014

Jackson has done a solid job with that team..
May 04th 2014
27
that would be fine and dandy
May 04th 2014
28
He's under contract next year, Bogut's expired = $20mil under the
May 04th 2014
34
Bogut's got 3 more years
May 04th 2014
42
      You're right, my bad. Fire the GM in that case!
May 04th 2014
49
           Bogut was great for the Warriors this season
May 04th 2014
60
                Bogut's expiring >>> 3 years @ $14mil for 7 and 10, IMO

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Marc Jackson isn't tapping into Klay's potential & lacks creativity. Klay would be averaging 25 points per if he played in your typical George Karl system & Iggy would be an all-star. Curry would also have plenty of chances for transition 3s rather than depending on Isos or half court sets while negotiating screens w/ defenders draped all over him.

WHAT'S GOOD *****? What's REALLY good?!?!????!!! Ha HA!

>Karl is known for collapses and 1st round exits with talented
>squads

-Last years Nuggets were nothing more than an overachieving regular season team. Iggy was their best player.......muphuckin' Iggy! Ty Lawson was looking like an all-star under Karl & now looks mediocre under Shaw.

-1994 was Deke's coming out party & he absolutely took over the series.

-Then he had to coach a bunch of knuckle heads in Denver: Melo/AI/Jr/McGee/K-Mart & got bounced by the better team or EVENTUALLY champs...although he took them to the WCF when he had Bullips at latter end of his prime.

-He went to the Finals in 1996, was one game away from the Finals in 2001. Both times he lost to the team that had the league MVP.

-In the 90s he had to go up against Malone/Barkley/Hakeem.....when they were all league MVPs.

-He never coached an MVP, the best player in the league nor an all-time top 20ish player.

The fact of the matter is all the teams he left ended up toiling in mediocrity after he left.

WHAT'S GOOD *****? What's REALLY good?!?!????!!! Ha HA!

His sanctimonious self-serving commentary from earlier this series while throwing his supposed friend Doc under the bus was yet another example.

As was tonight with his mic-d up rah rah farewell fourth quarter huddle.

Can the corny act for the camera and call a fucking play if it's not about u, it's Game 7.

Never liked him even a little bit as a player, broadcaster and/or coach.

I don't necessarily believe he deserves to be fired but will shed no tears if/when he does, especially if it's basically just for being an insufferable arrogant asshole without the resume strong enough to excuse it.

Doc hit him with that classy complimentary ether post-game which made it even better.

Hopefully he coaches the Lakers next season.

The players love it. Especially a team as devout as the Warriors (Curry, Thompson, Lee, Green, and O'Neal are all uber-Christian, as are probably a good chunk of the rest of the roster). He's a supreme motivator, and the players buy when he's selling, so I'll take it.

>As was tonight with his mic-d up rah rah farewell fourth

I was watching the local feed of the game, so I don't know what he said exactly. But it's probably the same thing I've seen/heard him do lots.

>I don't necessarily believe he deserves to be fired but will

Here's my thing: who would we replace him for? Watch candidate out there is going to take this team to the next level? All the coaches available are retired or also-rans. Jeebs help us if we fire Jackson and hire D'Antoni.

>Hopefully he coaches the Lakers next season.

That's the one way the Warriors get around losing Jackson without looking like assholes: he takes another job.

In response to Reply # 6


  

          

they lost in the first round.

He's done a fine job objectively speaking, if he wasn't a dickhead he's definitely done a good enough job to keep the gig, as I said I don't actually on surface level believe he should be fired.

But if so, c'est la vie, he'll get another gig and do nothing extraordinary with it.

The next Laker coach is fucked anyway, so just for the initial Kobe ballwashing into the inevitable head-butting, him going to the Lakers would make me happy.

Jackson is more bluster than brass tacks, I don't see swapping him out for a comparable coach making too much difference on the bottom line.

And the guys on this team are all mostly pretty coachable as far as NBA players go.

They won't change their colors (David Lee didn't all the sudden become a good defender & GS didn't become a good defensive team just because Jackson came in with that mantra) but they're all going to play hard regardless of who is on the bench.

Good timing has a lot to do with that, he came in guaranteeing playoffs season one & went deep lottery, he talked a bunch of shit about turning that talent into defenders but really the only reason they improved to respectable there was by getting one of the Top 5 wing defenders of the past decade and Bogut mucking it up down loan.

On offense they've got a plethora of talent but generally play undisciplined & careless with the basketball.

They have a young talented backcourt tandem that's likely the best in the league (along with above average supporting talent) growing into their games & Curry has been healthy the past two years.

The Thunder went from 20 wins in PJ's last full season to 50 wins in Brooks' first full season.

Scottie Brooks is still a shitty coach, shittier than Jackson sure, however it shows you what can happen if you catch them at the right time.

>He's completely turned around the franchise

LOL

>And losing to the Los Angelels Clippers, easily

Three seasons, one playoff series win, 'whoopty-damn-do'(c)D.C.

Nellie did that too.

He's an average coach & seems like an arrogant douchebag much like he did as a player and commentator.

I don't think he should be fired but if he is, I won't cry for him nor do I see him going somewhere else and becoming an elite coach.

If he's gone & they hire someone other than Vinnie DelNegro or Johnny Davis, it won't hurt Golden State's bottom line much as long as Curry stays healthy.

'Antoni could win 50 games with this roster next year if he got the shot and I don't even like that dude.

Or his assistant coaches, for that matter.

Whatever, he still shouldn't be fired. He took the team, without their center, to game 7, which they played without even a back-up center, and still had a legit shot to win (or at least tie) with 10 seconds left. Add in the 51 wins and the fact that the players love him, and you definitely keep him next season.

If they make a first or second-round exit next season (the Dubs really should take it to either the conference finals or the Finals period), then you make a change. But now, leave it as it is.

30. "most of these seedings came down to the last week."
In response to Reply # 18


  

          

There are scenarios where they could have been seeded higher and had identical matchups or have to play Portland, Houston, or OKC.

The West is just tough this year but they didn't lose because of coaching the way Houston did. They needed size inside. They hit more threes and had their game plan together for last night but LAC shot a higher percentage cause they ate above the rim.

They are one dynamic big guy away from advancing the way they want to. If you want to gut this team tho? Then fire Mark Jackson.

They're talking about the media and Front office.

It was news to me a few months ago when the rumors started floating he wouldnt be back. From his tone and comments this series, it seems like he himself is sure of it.

because Bogut, Curry and Iggy would be the best at their positions in Timberwolves history (all-time) if those teams switched rosters. If you want to talk about FLAWED rosters the current Minnesota squad was as flawed as it gets.

In response to Reply # 25


  

          

If you hire a coach with no prior coaching experience, you can't be shocked, yes, shocked, when he's not the best with the X's and O's.

Warriors fans know about his deficiencies and that he often gets out-coached in the final minutes of close games. But 51 wins and a seven game series against a 3 seed washes that away.

The best course of action right now would be to somehow find an assistant coach who's really good at X's and O's who can get along with Jackson. Go into next season with about the same roster, with everyone one year wiser and more seasoned. They get booted early next season, fine, then you've given Jackson his chances with this talent, and you look for something else. Until then, you keep him.

I think this is where a lot of the issues started. The front office understood that he was inexperienced and not an expert with X's and O's which is why they paid Malone so much to be his lead assistant. Then when Malone got the King's job the owners offered to open up their Wallet and bring in another big name assistant but Jackson didn't want to. He wanted to promote his own guys and bring in Hunter and Scalabrine.

I think the front office was nervous about not bringing in an experienced tactical assistant but they gave Jackson the benefit of the doubt. Then when things went bad in the coaching room it really cost Jackson a lot of credibility.

if they can him....they'd be making a mistake, but obviously people are not getting along with the guy..

Ima tell you though... if he is out of a job...Larry Bird needs to give him a call... I think he'd be just what those pacers need.

cap

it would make no sense to fire him

especially when the players, to a man, are saying they want to play for him

back to back playoff appearances

and GS could add a big name FA

firing the HC = DUMB!

GS just went to 7 games with JO staring at C against a loaded Clips team

miss me witht he Xs and Os

and explain how firing him makes them better?

I've heard Jerry West's name circling in this nonsense

I hope he didn't have anything to do with that extension

they lost some good parts after last season

added Iggy, which didn't seem to make up for it

and are stuck with Bogut now too = FIRE THE HC

In response to Reply # 49


  

          

Just broke his rib at the wrong time. Injuries are always going to be an issue with him but I'm OK with the extension because you gotta pay for big men who can anchor the defense.

As far as losing important pieces... ask the Cavs and Kings how much Jack and Landry moved the needle for their teams. They are nice role players but giving 4 year deals at significant money for role players is dumb, the FO was right to let them leave.

67 GP was his biggest achievement thie year

doubt he does it again, as in ever.

which is why I was saying that's on the GM/FO

this is what they do

cap space + draft picks >>> extending an often injured C

“Winning is hard, and hopefully everybody that supports this organization, that runs this organization, understands just how hard it is to win,” he continued. “And if you get a group that’s a good group that loves each other, that fights for each other, and can get a head coach (where) you see (former Warriors point guard and current Cleveland Cavaliers point guard) Jarrett Jack speaking about now from another situation, don’t take that for granted (because) 51 (wins) can go to 31.”

Fuck all this nuance shit OE and the rest of y'all talking about.

FIRE MARK JACKSON TODAY. RIGHT NOW, THE NIGGA SHOULD BE GONE.

66. "Probably. But it was a bad situation."
In response to Reply # 0


          

The new GM didn't want him. Jackson didn't want to be there (lobbied for Clippers and Nets job this past offseason.) He clearly needs to pick his own assistants, having clashed with two top assistants and Scalabrine (but I think Scal was probably to blame for a lot of his undoing.)

At the same time, a lot of those things could be said about many coaches in the NBA.

Personally, from the stories I've heard, I think he's an asshole but he clearly a great motivator and solid coach and I think he could have continued success and less controversy if he went somewhere else. Detroit might be the best landing spot for him.

He lobbied hard to bring Scalabrine in, the front office wanted to bring in more experienced assistants with strong tactical reputations. Jackson didn't want guys with strong resumes looking for head coaching jobs. I don't know what was going on behind the scenes but it definitely looks bad for all involved.

71. "What's The Difference Between What Jackson and Kidd Did?"
In response to Reply # 69


  

          

>The problem is he did pick his own assistants
>He lobbied hard to bring Scalabrine in, the front office
>wanted to bring in more experienced assistants with strong
>tactical reputations.
Kidd did the same thing lobbying for Lawrence Frank. Once they clashed on coaching philosophies, Kidd demoted him

To me, that's exactly what Jackson did with Scales...and if this report is true, that's confirmation that Jackson did the right thing

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2045944-news-of-coachs-secret-recording-spotlights-warriors-off-court-turmoil

Erman, of course, was not the first assistant coach to leave the staff this season. Several days before the loss to the Knicks, assistant coach Brian Scalabrine was reassigned to the team's NBA Development League squad, the Santa Cruz Warriors, because of "a difference in philosophies" with Jackson. Scalabrine was the third assistant in his first coaching stint after 11 seasons as a player. Although Jackson aggressively pursued Scalabrine despite his lack of experience, sources say Scalabrine almost immediately became disenchanted with Jackson's coaching style and, for his last five weeks with the team, carried out his duties while refusing to speak to Jackson. One source said Scalabrine found fault with Jackson's level of accountability of the players, particularly in comparison to Scalabrine's last two coaches, Doc Rivers and Tom Thibodeau.

Another source, however, says that Scalabrine was unhappy that the team's power structure did not more clearly delineate a difference between the third assistant coach and non-coaching positions such as video coordinator. Scalabrine's frustration came to a head shortly after a halftime dispute between he and lead assistant coach Pete Myers over how the team executed a particular defensive set in the first half of a March 22 loss to the San Antonio Spurs. Sources say sometime afterward, Scalabrine shouted at Jackson, "If you were Tom Thibodeau or Doc Rivers or Jeff Van Gundy, you would've fired me five weeks ago!"

At the time of Scalabrine's reassignment, a report from Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo Sports suggested Warriors management wanted him to remain on the staff until the end of the season but that Jackson insisted on his transition.

I don't know what was
>going on behind the scenes but it definitely looks bad for all
>involved.
It's no different than what's happening in Chicago with Thibs...the players LOVE Jackson, they perform on the court, and he's responsible for the best 3 year stretch in decades.

nor does the Russian take the same hands-on approach or even take any role in basketball decisions beyond cutting checks.

In response to Reply # 232


  

          

That Jackson and Kidd both demoted assistant coaches for interfering with their coaching philosophy. They both were successful in their own right getting the most out of their teams

So for Jackson to trigger any sort of anger from the front office when he did exactly what Kidd did, and in his opinion what was best for the team is startling.

What's also startling is your unabashed hatred for Mark Jackson...that came out of nowhere

Kerr flamed out as a GM so who knows if he can even coach. And why has management fallen in love with Scalabrine? Rumor has it that's why Scalabrine and Jackson butted heads.

If the relationship is really unrepairable might as well pull the band-aid off now and let the players get pissed. Guys like Steph and Lee are clearly all in behind Jackson but I think given time they'll get over it so long as the Warriors don't bring in some chump to replace him.

206. "You don't think Jackson will get another chance?"
In response to Reply # 161
Wed May-07-14 12:54 PM by SoulHonky

          

Skiles's career was somewhat similar. In Phoenix: 40 wins in season one. 51 wins in season two. The difference is that in season 3, the Suns traded Kidd for Marbury and Skiles took the fall during the season when it didn't pan out as hoped.

In Chicago, thye tanked season one but then went from 19 wins to 47. Next two seasons were 41 and 49 wins (including a trip to the semis) and then got fired after a slow start at the start of the following season.

Personally, I don't think Jackson's a good X's and O's coach either. The world of difference between the two is that Skiles is a hard ass who loses his players after a few seasons whereas Jackson inspires them. I'd be surprised if Jackson didn't find another coaching gig in the next year or two.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

that this franchise has done in the last 35 years. Might not even crack the top 15 or 20.

So if this was anyone's breaking point, they haven't been paying attention.

My Warriors fandom survived through the Joe Barry Carrol debacle, the Cohan debacle, the Webber debacle, the Spreewell debacle, other Marc Jackson debacle, the Jamison debacle, the Arenas debacle, and countless other debacles.

I've seen fire and I've seen rain. This slightly moves the outrage needle in the grand scheme of things.

He was a great pg but I haven't seen evidence that he's especially good at designing offense. But the tone shift would help okc, couldn't make Indy worse, and might do wonders in Houston.

Dwight would eat his shit up. Bev would relate. Think Lin would be with it too. If Harden can't buy in it's just another indictment.

In response to Reply # 122


  

          

You bring in a task-master/disciplinarian when the team is under-performing. And despite the spin coming out of the front-office, they didn't under-perform: they won more games than last year in an even stronger West. Bringing in someone who's old, rigid, and will ride the players is a quick way to pissing off the roster and thus make it difficult to keep the good players here on the team.

He just said, "The players may be upset but next year when this team (Golden State) is in the final next year, they'll be glad he was fired."

Then 2 minutes later LeBatard asked him if the same could be said for Scott Brooks.

"No, I don't think that's the case he might be a little conservative but I don't think he's a bad coach..."


Now I have to throw shades at this. OKC's offense consist of pass to Durant and pass back to Westbrook, and then have Westbrook create something or Durant shoot a 3.

That all there is to it. Adams or perk or Ibaka might have been enough.

He made adjustments and almsot got there. Mark Jackson almost got Jermaine O'Neal to be that.

Scott Brooks can't even fix the only problem his squad has had these past five years.

135. "A healthy Bogut likely would have done it. "
In response to Reply # 129


  

          

Possibly a healthy Ezeli. Shoot, even 15 years ago Ezeli would been greenlit to play during the regular season, rather than before Game 6 of the first round.

>He made adjustments and almsot got there. Mark Jackson almost
>got Jermaine O'Neal to be that.

The best adjustment was putting in the small-ball line-up with Lee at the center and Green in the line-up. That got us Game 4 and probably Game 6, and almost Game 7.

But it's complicated, because by the same token, better coaching might have gotten us Game 3. If Jackson had actually designed a play for the last shot of the game, rather than just give it to Curry and hope he hits a three at the buzzer, maybe we win. Or maybe if the Dubs hit their threes and don't turn it over as much. There's a lot of things that could have gone either way. Regardless, I still think Jackson should have kept his job.

Casey maybe but that looked more like a bad decision by Lowry. And I have no idea how Vogel is at the end game.

So I can't hold it against Jackson for those jobs.

In response to Reply # 135


  

          

is because the Clips basically gave away Game 4 as the Sterling shit was flaming up.

The Clippers were the better team with the better star combo and better coach.

I don't buy that the Sterling situation prevented the Clips from winning Game 4. And I don't believe that putting Bogut on Griffin for the series wouldn't have limited Blake's effectiveness and helped as turn one of those games.

We went 7 games and were minutes away from winning the series without anyone stopping either. Even preventing Jordan from turning into a 20-20 guy changes the complexion of the series.

under unprecedented circumstances.

They have two legit superstars to Golden State's one, they are better deeper/more talented overall and they had a better coach.

They didn't even play well & it still never felt like they would lose this series.

132. "The next coach will face the same problems"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Basketball wise Jackson wasnt the problem tho he had his shortcomings
Warriors are just a flawed team.
Their best players are jump shooters.
Run-n-gun style of bball is all good during the reg.season
But during the playoffs teams can lock up the perimeter
and force you to play halfcourt ball, thats were the Dubs fall apart.
Until they realize they need to get easier baskets in the halfcourt
inside the paint, Warriors gonna live by the jumper & die by it.

In reply to rob in the post that was locked.

Tho i was talking offensively and not defensively becuz the Dubs are solid there.
You contradicted yourself
If the Warriors were good enuff to win a chip theyve wouldve stopped DeAndre Jordan's one dimensioanl game.
Fact is theyre not good enough to win a championship however you wanna slice it.

Im from Texas and I say fly shit.

Listen to the latest BS report. He put the blame squarely on the iggy trade and the bogut signing. Iggy hasn't lived up to what they gave for him (2 ist rounders and 2 expiring) and bogut is always damn hurt. Firing Mark isn't gonna fix these things. Name me the coach that is gonna beat the clips without Bogut. OE right how come scott brooks keeps under achieving with a FULL roster but Mark gets the axe?

His hammy really hampered much of the season. Game 1 the refs took him out of it.

But if they get Olympics Iggy for a playoff stretch he's worth it.

In response to Reply # 137


  

          

We'll never know the full story/

Playing the game is a slippery slope, that you're right--white people don't have to do as much. Period.


That said, part of the reason dumbass Mchale isnt fired yet is because he smooches it up with management and is a likeable guy. Seems like Jax chose to clash.


I was in a similar situation 2 jobs ago. Going in, I was told by a former colleague that it was like a Game of thrones and to watch my back. I was basically like whatever, ill just stay away from that shit cause that work gossip/alliance shit wasnt my style. First day of work in the summer, I meet a woman who tells me all kinds of gossip about another person who was the Director of Operations...Its my first fuckin day and shes casually telling me this dude is an idiot. As usual I just nod and KIM.

Ultimately because I didnt make alliances and kiss anyones ass I got caught in some BS even though I had the best placement record of any placement counselor in years. More than 70% of my kids got into their first choice school. The people I was hired to work with directly (students and parents loved me for the most part). Any clean cut white dude or woman woulda been praised.

On my end..

I chose to not give a fuck about my appearance and grew out my james Harden beard without shaving for 4 months. I also refused to come in earlier when they tried to change my start time up an hour and a half.

Recounting the story still makes me kinda mad, but Im also happy (probably like Jax)mthat i didnt have to kowtow to anyone and still did a good job at what I felt I was hired to do. I still landed on my feet somewhere else where I didnt have to deal with the bullshit.

Maybe they should have fired him in his third season but he outlasted his star player and was there for a long time before getting tossed out. Hard to compare him to Jackson.

that only happens in an environment where ownership doesn't have full confidence in the coach
smh @ ppl trying to paint jackson as paranoid when he just had foresight

only downside is that the west is thick, but if he wants to be close to home, he gonna be out there anyway.

Only good thing bout ny is feel and its ny...but he don't seem like a ny type o guy anyway.

I wonder who is 2nd on the knicks list?

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

goodbye iso after iso play calling, stupid hockey-style lineup changes and blown 4th qtr leads as a result.

I appreciate what he did to help change the culture of defense, but his role in that is entirely overstated imo. We have Klay (maybe the best 2 way guard in the league), Draymond, Iggy and Bogut -- all guys who bring a ton defensively regardless what a coach does.


this feels sorta like when Mike SIngletary was let go by the Niners


a talented underachieving squad in need of a qualified coach to take them farther into the playoffs


now we just need to go out and find our Harbaugh

185. "Dawg, this is no "Harbaugh" out there"
In response to Reply # 172


  

          

It's been established that Kerr has a lot of hype, but still has no actual experience as a coach. You know, like Mark Jackson when we first hired him. And even if we was as good as his hype, he's going to NY. Otherwise, the remaining field is made up of retreads. Boring retreads. I don't see one guy in this field who I honestly think can get us "over the hump" through his coaching.

Also, I don't think it's fair at all to say this team underperformed with Jackson. Even this year. He's not perfect by any stretch, and you can definitely point to games where he got out-coached down the stretch. But there's also a fair share of games wear 1) injuries sank us and 2) turnovers and sloppy play cost us. So it's not as simple as Jackson only running ISOs.

And I don't think the Singletary comparison is fair. Singletary talked god game, but he was in over his head and the players figured out he was full off it quickly, then tuned him out. Jackson actually motivated these guys and they played. That's why I've always maintained they should have given him one more year. They don't Make the leap then, fine, move on from Jackson. This current situation doesn't suggest anything beyond a lateral coaching move.

Singletary belittled players, created a culture of
fear and punishment

Harbaugh is a player's coach. He's snarky and witty
and loves to coach, just like Jackson

In response to Reply # 185


  

          

Mark Jackson interviewed for three seasons for jobs before GSW and didn't get any while Kerr is going to get the job of his choosing off being a subpar GM and horrible announcer who says incorrect shit about the team he watches and is bland and boring.

231. "what are you talking about? Jackson was getting a TON of interest"
In response to Reply # 200


  

          

and he was a shitty broadcaster on national TV with no coaching experience too.

He actually turned down chances at gigs in two straight offseasons, including refusing to even interview with the Sixers who went to him first and the Nets before going to Golden State.

The overall point of black coaches not getting the same opportunities (for instance a Vinny DelNegro HC slot or Kiki Vandewaghe GM spot) has merit but Mark Jackson specifically got more burn before ever coaching at any level than any black coach I can remember.

but I completely agree. The names I've heard through rumors do not interest me at all. Kerr could maybe come in and establish something, but I'm not that confident in him right now.

it was a tough year for us injury-wise. I think Iggy's hamstring was hampering him more than we had thought. And re: turnovers, that was a result of two things imo. 1.) not having a true Point guard coming off the bench. 2.) play calling. The first reason was a personnel issue, the second is on the coaching.


Damnit if only we still had Malone as the genius behind the scenes we wouldn't be in this mess.

In response to Reply # 175


  

          

LaMarcus' left-block set begins with a two-man game entering the ball, with an option on the weak side while the entry is made, then there's a cut after he catches it.

If you missed Grantland's recent piece on Dirk's unguardable play, click through at least to get to some of the youtubes in there. The Youtube clips are much better than the article:

have a disdain for Black people. You're point would probably have more weight if you just pointed out their double standard rather than assuming they hate Black people. You may be helping someone realize something about themselves they didn't....

In response to Reply # 182


  

          

as far as end of game, yeah everyone runs isos. Blazers run the 1-4 flat set for Lillard all the time.

I thought the critique against Jackson was that the Warriors offense turned into 1v1 battles too often, not just at the end of games. I didn't watch enough Golden State to really hold an opinion on it one way or the other, but I do think iso-heavy offenses are a dinosaur of the NBA.

the new rules *should* change the offensive schema simply by the fact that clearing out a side is more complicated.

it might affect individual players, but the ability to play a semi-zone does make it harder to complete an isolation. hand-checking makes it harder to start. you design the play differently based on that, if you're a good coach.

still end up with iso's, just different plays to get to that point.

Bwahhahahahah @ you just IGNORING HAND CHECKING bro

Isolation offense INFINITELY HARDER BECAUSE OF THE HAND
CHECK...it was an innovation that Stern HAD TO MAKE in
order to cater to SUPERSTARS most of whom benefited from
one-on-one play

Jordan is literally putting in 40 per today

i don't care which era is easier or harder to pull off an iso. assuming you want to run an iso, YOU DO IT DIFFERENTLY IN EACH ERA.

In response to Reply # 211


  

          

You can do all kinds of help + recover actions to attack a stagnant iso set that '70s / '80s / '90s scorers just didn't have to deal with. I still think Jordan woulda mauled it, just saying he prolly couldn't get away with running clearout as often as he did. The whole POINT of a clearout set is to drag defenders, who are bound to their man by rule, to the weak side of the play.

212. "all iso sets aren't equal"
In response to Reply # 205


  

          

Doc's isos for pierce involved off-ball movement designed to give Pierce more options with the ball. Yes, it was Pierce's job to just make the move, but he had options because there were other players moving to good spots and setting picks and pinning, etc.

meanwhile, there's the scott brooks version where Durant starts way above the 3 point line, everyone just stands around, and durant does superhuman things.

both are a 1v1 play. but Doc designed boston's plays to make it harder to have help defense and easier to respond when that help came over. Brooks hangs his players up to dry with poor design of how to do an iso offense.

and, to bring in another post in which i was anti an analytic argument, this is what that harvard analytics piece was trying to quantify with its "movement score."

The Paul Pierce ISO leading to an elbow/foul line jumper was a staple at the end of the Celtics games. I actually didn't understand why we did it so much when we had Ray and KG around.

In response to Reply # 216


  

          

Still haven't heard anyone correct me that the criticism of Jackson's playcalling wasn't about the endgame, it was the offense overall, same as tjt talking about OKC's busted overall offense, not just their endgame sets.

Stagnant, iso-heavy offenses are a dinosaur in the NBA <--- that's what I said. Doesn't mean they're useless, just means they're passe.

The former two never got off of the bench. I hadn't even realized the latter was still on the team.

The two drafts are and will likely continue to be late round picks. We still have a young roster filled with players with a ton of upside without those picks. And Iggy helped make us one of the five best defensive teams in the league.

Honestly, if our roster next season is same as our roster this year, I honestly wouldn't mind at all.

People listen to too much Ric Bucher.

In response to Reply # 250


          

Bucher is Team Jackson. Broussard is basically a mouthpiece for Jackson. Woj and a few others don't care for Mark at all. Kawakami and the Bay Area press has been somewhat shockingly out of the loop during this whole thing.

It's always tough to figure out the truth in matters like these but the reporting on this has been as agend-filled as some of these OKSports threads.

In response to Reply # 254


  

          

...and those are his friends. Woj is being Woj. Kawakami has always been a blowhard. I think if you polled the Bay Area press, I'd guess not many would be surprised that this happened. However, leading up to the firing, most said in advance that it would be the wrong move. Or at least not justified by the season that the team just had.

>It's always tough to figure out the truth in matters like

>some of these OKSports threads.

Personally, I'd like the thinking and reporting on this not to be binary and more nuanced. I personally come down on the side that, taking everything into context, firing Jackson was a mistake. But I understand some of these frustrations with him that are getting voiced, beyond "He doesn't play well with others in the front office."

So yeah, agenda-filled reporting and writing (and posting) isn't doing this situation any favors. But hey, it's sports reporting, so why should I expect anything different?

Andris Biedrins and Richard Jefferson's and a couple of first round picks isn't going to get you much more than Andre Iguodala.

And he didn't trade any of their actual player assets like Barnes or Green.

I thought the Iggy move was weird but not the end of the world (even if he's overpaid yet again), didn't like the Bogut signing, but after expecting big things and blaming Jackson for them not reaching that level, all eyes on the front office next year.

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

At least when it comes to their efforts in replacing Jackson.

Their plan of action seems to have been:

1. Fire Mark Jackson

2. Hope you can talk Steve Kerr out of taking the Knicks job.

3. If that doesn't work, hire Stan Van Gundy.

4. If THAT doesn't work, beg Kerr to change his mind and coach the Warriors.

And even if #4 works, you've still got Steve Kerr, who hasn't coached a single NBA game in his career, much like Mark Jackson when we hired him. But at least he'll spend his weekends in the Bay rather than LA.

Look, I get that Jackson was far from a perfect coach. But if this move was long in the planning stages (and it's clear this was the game plan before the play-offs ever began), you might want to have a solid plan in place. Now the field is gonna be even more also-rans likely with less impressive resumes than SVG or guys who are just a bad fit for the team.

Jackson didn't exactly take over a great team. They won 36 games the year before he got there and never made the playoffs in back-to-back seasons (which is crazy because they had some talented ass teams back in the late 80s early 90s.

Kerr would be taking over a team tailor made for years of success.

guy. That he gets out-coached in close games both down the stretch and during the second, third quarter. That they lost too many "easy" home games when he was in games that a better-prepared coach would have the team cruising through.

Okay, so you fire him and let's say you bring in Kerr. What's Kerr bringing to the table that Jackson didn't have? They both have the same roster, but what skill does Kerr have that Jackson doesn't, beyond he plays well with upper management? Is there any evidence that he's better at strategy or is appreciably at with the X's and O's? Or is "gets along with Jerry West" the only criteria?

He won 51 games...how many "easy" games were left to win in the West?
He won 47 the year before

And to say he gets outcoached from time to time happens to every coach. The 2 coaches that beat him in the playoffs were:
Doc Rivers (took him to 7 games)
Gregg Popovich (took him to 6 games)

How much more can someone expect from a guy in his 3rd year in the league?

I don't get that either. I honestly don't know how Kerr became THE candidate for EVERY job (except the obvious)

In the regular season the issue was dropping home to teams they should have beaten. And I'm not talking about losing to Miami on a last second three by LeBron; shit like that happens. I'm talking losing to Minnesota, or to the Knicks as the season nears its end (the game which lead to Jackson "firing" Scalabrine) or twice to the Nuggets (once in the final week of the season while trying to play for position), or to the Cavs by 9, or to the Bobcats by 16. Those are all games that you should be winning, and often Jackson coached poorly while they were happening. You win like half of those and you're a #4 or #5 seed instead of a #6.

But still, as I've said probably even in this thread, 51 wins is 51 wins, and it earns Jackson at least one more year. It's more than we've had in 20 plus years. And the team definitely progressed, first round loss or not.

I wasn't talking about play-off performances in terms of him being out-coached. He did as well as and often better than could be reasonably expected of him in the Play-Offs.


>I don't get that either. I honestly don't know how Kerr became
>THE candidate for EVERY job (except the obvious)

The only thing I will say is that the Warriors were seriously considering at Kerr three years ago before they picked Jackson. So there's a history of interest, and that's probably a lot of what got the deal done. Well, that and a five year contract.

But beyond that, yeah, I don't get it either.

265. "Really surprised by Kerr"
In response to Reply # 259


          

Not sure why they'd go for another first time coach here. Guess it's better than going with someone like Furious George, who I've never liked but I thought they'd look for more experience than running a front office.

After SVG was off the table, who else was there not under contract? All the other options were far worse.

He is just annoying "hand down, man down" guy to a whole generation of Ws fans. Deal with it.
