Mark Jackson fired by Golden State

I read somewhere that they're keen on a coach who'll adopt a motion offense... hopefully that'll kill the stagnation.

With Bogut... I'd hope they reduce his minutes with Ezeli back. Though as Bogut himself points out, his injuries aren't wear & tear related... usually impact injuries

Owners don’t have any patience these days.

I feel sorry for any coach that has to come into the league. I also feel sorry for the players. By all accounts, Jackson was extremely popular. Australian fans should also be disappointed – Jackson saw a lot in Bogut and wanted him to be around for the duration of his career.

Mark Cuban is the benchmark for the NBA though. Love that guy. I think he shows some great qualities that a lot of other owners could learn from.

Just a classic case of unreal/unreasonable expectations. Don’t know how else the Warriors owners/GM’s thought the season would go – they didn’t have a PG, they had a bunch of sub-par defenders in Curry, Lee (undersized), an undersized Green (though he does hustle), they didn’t have a centre for the playoffs and their bench had no depth whatsoever.

I think this is a mistake. But GSW are big boys. Lets see how destructive this turns out with the roster.

Goes to show that despite the on court success, you need to operate within the context of the overall operation. I read one article that said that he'd alienated himself from the whole of management & had nominal support from the GM Bob Myers... when Myers stopped listening to him, it was all over.

I saw another article that said that hopefully it'll be a learning experience for both sides. I hope GSW see that inexperienced coaches need support (like what Jackson is offering Kerr) & that Jackson sees that he needs to operate the playing/coaching group in-conjunction with the management/ownership group.
