Re: BREAKING NEWS: Mark Jackson Hired as Warriors Coach
Can't wait for their first close game. "Jax, what was the call there on that final possession?" "I just gave it to my best player and told everyone else get out the way."

The Warriors are dedicated to spending money to hire a strong group of assistant coaches for Jackson, league sources said. The Warriors are trying to lure New Orleans Hornets assistant Mike Malone for Jackson’s staff, sources said. They clearly seem determined to outbid the Los Angeles Lakers, who want Malone for Mike Brown’s new staff. Malone met with the Lakers on Monday.
Still dont understand the hire.Why not just get someone with experience?

Breen is so wishy washy as an announcer, so everytime Breen/Van Gundy have paired (without Jackson), JVG makes his usual outlandish statements and Breen just kind of laughs or doesn't give much of an objection. Whereas MJ actually makes it interesting and funny by calling him out. And the former coach/player dynamic they have going on is also interesting. Gonna miss that duo, he's the one who makes JVG bearable.
