He was never a true candidate here because Jim Boylen will lead us to the promised land (assuming the promised land is a quarter mile south of Hades).

I suppose this mean Derek Fisher could be a potential new Jackson puppet. He can finally get closer to NY.

Isn't the big copper pit about a quarter mile south of Magna?

Let's hope Kerr is as bad of a coach as he was GM, that 2017 pick will be lottery bound.

Smart move by Kerr. He had little chance of succeeding in NY. He was able to get what he wanted from the Dubs and is pretty much gift wrapped a good team.

Oh good! Another stupid franchise fires a successful head coach for a head coach in training!

Let's not follow this trend and go with someone who is proven, like Lionel Hollins. Turn Favors/Kanter into Gasol/Zbo.

celebrity coaches < real coaches from the trenches.
bad move for the tankers!

ultimate fail

warriors just got worse

Let's be honest about this- the Warrior's success is mostly depends on health. Will Curry and Bogut stay healthy?

Ah, Magna. Magna's so ghetto that even the lake stink won't roll in.

Hence my comparison to Hades.

Then why was everyone pining for Hornacek? He would have been a coach in training.

You can pretty much guarantee that one of Bogut or Iggy will miss a lot of time due to injury, but if they miss Curry and one of those guys at the same time, they are done for. Hopefully we will have an awesome lottery pick in 2017!

This decision had less to do with Jackson's ability as coach and more about his alienation of key figures within the front office.

Wow, some things I did NOT know about Steve Kerr. Have to admire him to deal with the adversity he went through. I vaguely remember that terrorist act back in 1984. But it's just a random name until it ties back to someone you know or someone famous like it now has. And incredible that he received what amounted to a "pity" scholarship from Lute Olson and turned that into a draft spot and a successful NBA career. I'm not sure I could have even functioned for a couple of years after having my father murdered.

And players revolt because they liked Jackson - especially Curry. Trade demands by players lead to a full meltdown by the 2017 draft.
