Here’s the Bay Area News Group reporting on the Golden State Warriors, who lost in seven games to the Los Angeles Clippers in the first round of the 2014 NBA playoffs:
In the moments after the Game 7 loss, Stephen Curry wouldn’t go as far as to call the Warriors’ season a success.
But Curry, whose All-Star season lifted the Warriors to a 51-win regular season, was clear in saying that he believed Mark Jackson “deserves to be our coach” and return next season.
“I love Coach more than anybody, and I think for him to be in a situation where his job is under scrutiny and under question is totally unfair,” Curry said. “And it would definitely be a shock to me if anything like that were to happen.
“I’m going to voice my support for Coach, if you’ve got anybody that asks me about it all summer.”
And so began what could be an offseason of change for the Warriors, who have a decision to make on Jackson as he enters the final year of his contract.
