Lots of coaches hate analytics but if they put a winner on the floor what does it matter. I'm not going to knock him for being homophobic. Cause it's only in this new world we live in that someone is seen as a bad person for nor liking gays. And when has he ever went at one of his assistants or did i miss it when he was coaching? And if Barnes was playing like shyt was that the worst thing that could be said about him at that time?
This is the type of logic crackas would use.

"Cause it's only in this new world we live in that someone is seen as a bad person for nor liking Blacks".

People need to stop bringing up Mark Jackson name in these conversations its counter productive.

I 100% agree they did Casey dirty and that McMillan had extremely average teams competing hard.

But Mark Jackson is a fukking moron.

He hates analytics, he's publicly homophobic, he was scared of his own assistant coaches stealing his shine...

Oh and he told players on his team that Harrison Barnes was possessed by a demon.

Mark Jackson has the opposite of leadership qualities.

Throwing him into these conversations is counter productive when men like Dwayne and Nate do deserve the opportunities and do have leadership qualities.
Why does Mark only get one shot ? He won games as a head coach . Sometime you need to go through things to learn . As many non winning /avg coaches get recycled this push that he doesn’t deserve another shot is ridiculous

Because he has bad references from his former employer.

He's had an entire lifetime to learn. He is who he is; he ain't ever gonna change.

Y'all nxggas need to let go of this shyt by trying to vicariously live through this muh'fukka.

Call if what you want. But someone not liking someone's sexual choice is a lot different than not liking their color. If you don't like their color for anything other than that then of course you are racist. If you feel in your heart that homosexuality is an unnatural thing as it is nothing is wrong with you for not agreeing with that. Now if he's out here gaybashing and whatnot it would be a different situation.

You're just doubling down with the same backwards ass logic.

:picard:

I do find it hilarious how you perceive there's a gray area of someone thinking homosexuality is unnatural and someone "gaybashing". Mental gymnastics to excuse bigotry.

See that logic I can’t ride with . Especially a successful coach . I could see if he didn’t win anything the first go round .


Specifically the bolded. It seems most of your problems come from his personal beliefs not if he can win or not. I thought most of his naysayers just didn’t think he could win .

It's one and the same.

His bigotry is the reason why he won't learn as a coach.

When you're on a certain wavelength, your way of thinking can only exist in that realm. He's never going to be someone who comes to a point in his life where he embraces analytics and the direction the game has headed in (which he would need to in order to be successful) just like he won't ever change his mind with the world accepting homosexuality.

I don't have to agree with your views but i ain't gotta discriminate against you either. That's the difference between not agreeing with something and bashing it.

In Mark Jackson’s defense in the 2016 Finals after going up 3-1 Harrison Barnes shot 5-35 and this is after turning down a contract from them earlier in the year

HB threw the series out of jealously of Curry. The league needed Lebron to win in Cleveland because black people always gotta do shyt to make racists feel better.

We're not really discussing the differential of views here are we though?

How is saying 'homosexuality is unnatural' not discrimination? I mean, preaching against it is bashing it. Or do you only identify it as once it crosses the threshold into physical harm?

The opinion of two dudes bumping nuts is his and anyone else to judge as to whether it's natural or not. But i don't see him pushing an agenda of ban gays or that he can't stand to be around them. If the man doesn't agree with that then it's his personal preference. I'm not going to knock him so maybe i'm homophobic too.
