Deng said the summer Thibs was hired, he went to the gym to shoot around at like 5AM thinking no one was there, all of a sudden Thibs comes down and puts him through the hardest drills he had ever been through.
Noah said the same thing. He would try to sneak workouts late night to avoid Thibs and he would still be there like
: Noah. 1000 jumpshots, 30 minute suicide sprints, 1000 hookshoots. Now!
As far as who would get hired first, obviously Thibs. Both have difficult personalites, but Jackson is a world class a$$hole. We are talking about a guy traded 7 times in his career despite being #2 in assist. We are talking about the same man who tried to get the Jazz players to turn against Stockton back in 02 and almost made Sloan retire. And of course he was turfed out of GS in two years. Jackson is just not a good coach. The same corp that is now one of the best offenses ever was 15th or some shyt under Jackson. I couldn't count the number of times GS lost the lead due to long plays of iso/ugly David Lee post ups. There's a reason no one is mentioning him with these vacancies. Hell, even trash ass Scott Skiles getting coaching gigs
