the white man getting all of the credit for the groundwork the black man put forth, seems about right
Was telling a friend just the other day how terrible and overrated people on espn are and how I no longer watch except for actual nba and nfl games we need some new fresh ways of people analyzing things in basketball these old school mindsets are beginning to be proven as not the best way to win.

not taking anything away from kerr but its interesting how mike malone got alot of credit for the offense under mark jackson. but people conveniently turn a blind eye to alvin gentry who already had a track record going in to this.
and kerr stays giving gentry props.

No doubt that was part of jackson problem from my understanding utilization of staff.

For the slow ones on this thread @OG_status and @KingJudah :
The players themselves had effusive praise for Kerr's attentiveness the entire season and he obviously commanded respect from the vets in that locker room. Harrison Barnes clearly stated that Mark Jackson had been grossly misusing him his entire coaching tenure and that Kerr requested feedback from all of his players regarding their strengths and weaknesses in the preseason for the express purpose of maximizing their talents on the court. Mark Jackson did no such thing.
He took a team that had won only 47 and 51 games in consecutive regular seasons and choked away playoff series in both subsequent postseasons, increased their winning percentage by 19%, led them to the third best regular season record in league history, and overcome multiple 2-1 playoff series deficits.
He had the balls to start Barnes over Iggy (who hadn't been a bench player in a decade) for the first 85 games of the year without a peep, then had the self-awareness to make the requisite adjustments by switching them out and benching Bogut halfway through the NBA Finals, thereby directly impacting the momentum of the series and leading them to a championship.
That's called being a good coach. And this post is called "putting your remedial asses in your place".
Now eat these negs, appreciate these well-timed smileys, shut the fukk up, and keep it moving.
They improved each year under Mark Jackson while being hurt... an were on the trajectory to win 60 plus games this season..... Deez are the facts.....
