SImilar situation to what we got with iHart. Hope its a similar ending.

Yeah I think he could have gotten paid more and could have scored well over 20ppg in a Detroit type situation, but he's a good fit in Sac and playing with his college teammate in Fox. They still have a nice young core and have a decent window here if they make the right move.

Mark Jax just never got back in the mix. Wonder if he turned down Assistant offers. Not like the man did not have skeletons in the closet. NBA seems you can get another chance if you eat a little crow and take a step back as an assistant. Darvin Ham gone back. Terry Stotts did (did not work with Griffin), and Jason Kidd after two Head Coaching jobs in BKN and Milwaukee sat as assistant in Lakerland before getting the Dallas Gig. Im sure there is something "Preacher" tax dodger Jax can quote in the Bible about "Humility" being a virtue?

Doc, he leaves to take over Bucks.

I think it is pretty clear that he is blackballed for his views on gay people.

But not as a broadcaster on ESPN? I get he was not given more chances to interview or refused to back down, which is his choice but to have that was kept on by ESPN for years until last year. I don't think he was fired for cause from them. I'd think ESPN would stay clear of it.

Seems the root of this was comments he said as coach of Warriors. Granted, for most of us this locker room type talk is harmless and while its hurtful for employees its a fine line. He was not publicly lambasted as a media personality as it was sort of kept inside. There was that, and his paranoid banter where our Darren Erman taped him (not cool) but it was likely at FO request. I have read that about everyone who had to work with Jax in the Warriors FO could not stand him. There was that.
That his church, tax issues, and preaching one thing then cheating on his wife never seemed to hurt his ESPN role was baffling. Teams did now want to hire him, but public persona was not an issue? There just might be some things in his closet that has not been fully disclosed as this is not all logical.
We live in a strange world. Isiah Thomas did some ****ed up things as a knick exec and his contract was extended? Go figure!

I think Action Jackson is more Doc Rivers in coaching style than Jason Kidd. He is more rah rah and pontificate rather teaching and developing. I don't think he is getting another HC job until he gets an assistant job first.

Trump can grab 'em by the pu$$y and get elected president - Al Franken does a dumb but zany photo op with hands over a servicewoman's chest and has to resign. I have no idea what the formula is.
