Where did the myth that Mark Jackson is a good coach come from? It's like people didn't actually watch Golden State play when he was there...
Also, people are being too harsh on the Sixers. Don't get me wrong, they deserve blame for the purposes of this series, but burying Embiid and Simmons is odd. Those guys are suuuuuuuuper young and will have a million more chances. Calm down. Everyone is so reactionary these days.
I thought he was pretty good, the young Warriors developed well under him. They got older, added Eagle and others and that helped push them over the edge. Problem with Jackson is that he's an asshole, I bet he'd wear out his welcome in a few years no matter where he goes.
And I don't see anyone burying those guys long-term. They've had a bad series, just part of the growing pains. And if they win the LeBron sweepstakes they are probably making the finals for a long time coming. Simmons will be tremendous and EmBiid a definite superstar if he stays healthy (a big if)
