Mark Jackson : Zero Coaching Experience

When Mark Jackson was in the NBA, he was considered one of the best leaders and floor generals in the league and had one of the best basketball IQ’s as well. I have no idea what kind of coach he will be, how much success he will have in the Bay Area, and I wasn’t in the interview room either, but I find it interesting that other top assistants are still available and he was given a head coaching gig without any prior coaching experience.

With the hiring of Jackson, the ESPN basketball analyst and former longtime NBA player with zero coaching experience, Lacob thinks that, unlike with Keith Smart, this past season’s coach, the franchise’s divorce from

Don Nelson is unequivocally official, the relationship and its effects finally and forever in the past tense. Whoa, Nellie.

Well, with the Warriors’ hiring of Mark Jackson, it’s time to play Six Degrees of Don Nelson.

The focal point, though, was the game broadcast, and while Jeff Van Gundy received the brunt of Dallas-based ire, Mark Jackson found himself in the midst of tributes to the Heat in fourth quarter after fourth quarter, just as Dallas mounted winning runs.

Mark Jackson began that declaration with the clock stopped at 10:20 and the game at 81-77. Next time up the court while working around a Udonis Haslem screen, Wade fumbled the ball away to Jason Terry. Wade then brought the ball up the court and proceeded to dribble the ball off his foot and out of bounds.
