Re: Mark Jackson Hired as Warriors Coach!
Judging Jackson for how you feel about him as a broadcaster is retarded. He was a great leader as a player, he has a tough, old school, defensive mentality as a HC and he has a great understanding of the game offensively. He was a very cerebral PG. Played for some good coaches too.
Re: Mark Jackson Hired as Warriors Coach!
I thought this was a joke thread when I first saw it and didn't even bother opening it, but I guess it really is true. :facepalm
Why would the Warriors do this? Seems like a desperate shake up move.

Re: Mark Jackson Hired as Warriors Coach!
I was honestly thinking the other day during game 3 when Mark Jackson would get a head coaching opportunity. He definitely seems like coaching material.
Inexperienced rookie head coaches have had a bad track record. We'll see how this works out.
[QUOTE=insidehoops]Meanwhile, Brian Shaw and Patrick Ewing continue to be assistant coaches with years of experience[/QUOTE]
Shaw would have made more sense.
Re: BREAKING NEWS: Mark Jackson Hired as Warriors Coach
Really none of us know. We weren't in the interview to see his thoughts, strategies, credentials. None of us know him personally. None of us have been coached by him.
But I trust Jerry West's opinion over uneducated guesses based off commentating. JVG says stupider things and he was a good coach.
Re: Mark Jackson Hired as Warriors Coach!
Wow...I hadn't seen this thread at all and in the Heat/Mavs game thread I actually made the comment that I wished some scrub team would hire Mark Jackson as coach to get him off the mic :oldlol: THANK YOU Warriors :applause:

[QUOTE=G-train]I think we will be surprised.
Commentary far from equals coaching.
Some fantastic coaches are terrible commentators and vice versa.[/QUOTE]
Good point.
And considering his level of commentary, he can only do better as a coach.

It's a boxing term. When the opponent would keep his hands down then BOOM KO, goodnight! (hand down = man down) Jackson says it when the defender doesnt' put his hand up to contest a shot.
No hand in a good shooters face = easy basket = man down (for getting scored on)
:)

What about his poor leadership late in his career? Teams wanted nothing to do with him. He single handedly fragmented the Jazz locker room in the one season he was there.
