Had to be office politics. The Warriors improved every year under Mark Jackson.
Heh...maybe he'll get back in the booth. I miss his silly "Jacksonisms".
I hate him, but would think Mike D'Antoni might be fun with Curry around.

I believed his GM was the reason Golden State was a good team not the coaching. He played up to the cameras to much during timeouts always giving these over Rehearsed quotes.
Look for D Antoni or a former spur assistant to take the job ( Avery Johnson , PJ Carlisimo , or Vinny Del Negro )
Maybe we can get a player from them like David Lee this off season
Any team with Bogut has a built in excuse for losing. Jackson wasn't a great coach, but I thought the results were pretty good considering what he had to work with. I could see how he could rub an owner the wrong way. He's a loudmouth from new york.
Well played!
Coach Bud should have waited for this opportunity tbh, Atlanta's talent & the East's overall weakness is just gonna make them mediocre for many more years to come.
What I really hate is that Mark Jackson will be back in the booth next year talking into a microphone. I'd rather listen to Gilbert Gottfried.
We already essentially have that in Hubie Brown.
Atlanta is just an opportunity for Bud to make some bank while refining his abilities as head coach. He'll get the Spurs head coaching job whenever he wants once Pop leaves. He gets to make head coach money with Atlanta in the meantime.
That is true...but I also hate seeing him as a coach, especially when they mic him up and we have to listen to like, "Play with heart out there, and you will be uplifted to the promise land!" and similar other such stupid nonsense. I actually feel like the NBA collectively just got a little bit better with him gone (although someone else will probably, unfortunately, end up hiring him).
I mean for a team that stresses "corporate knowledge" so much, there is literally no one qualified to take Pop's throne other than Bud.
He pretty much coached like he broadcasted. From the way he broadcasted you could tell x and o's weren't his strength. He would be more of a motivator.
This being said going on anti-gay sermons when coaching a franchise that has its eyes on relocating to San Francisco and when key members of the FO are openly gay might not be the best move ever. Jackson should learn to separate his private and professional lives better.
He's not an Xs and Os guy,so he needs his assistants, but he doesn't trust them either.
Mark Jackson got fired for being a paranoid.
Also, it was God's will and part of his plan.
Series down, Coach down. Please do not let this guy call national games again. One of the worst.
Their FO wants to go in another direction.
Since Jackson had them going up, I guess they want them to go down!
Next I'll read on here how the Pop haters will want him to replace Pop!
What a joke that would be.
Because when they needed to score and get smart baskets at the end of game 7, Jackson had Andre Iguodala, one of the dumbest ing players in the league, running point instead of Stef Curry. That's kind of a fireable offense, but I'm sure that's not why it happened. He was going to get canned even if they lost in the west finals.
Apparently, winning does not matter in the West.
Karl won 57 games last year, was COY, and was fired.
Hollins won 56 games, and was fired
Jackson 51 wins, and is history
Looking at wins is one thing, but look at the talent. There are several coaches that could have led that talent to 50 wins IMO. He is very replaceable and on top of that he annoys owners - it's not a good receipe. That's not to say he is an awful coach, he's just nothing special.
That might be because nobody gives a about how many wins a coach gets in the regular season, but how far he advances in the playoffs. Not every franchise is like Denver, happy to be handed 1st round exits after 1st round exits...
Good motivator, bad Xs and Os coach, as are all black coaches, tbh...
He appeared to be a very good motivtor.
Took the Clippers to a game 7.
Gave the Spurs lots of problems last year.
Both the Clippers and last year Spurs were of course just better teams.
Owners probably has other expectations.
However, I think the best explanation is that this team should be passing more given the kind of talent it has.
