Coach talking,
[h3]Mark Jackson Discusses Coaching Philosophy[/h3]
Sep 02, 2011 1:02 PM EDT
In an interview with the San Francisco Chronicle, Mark Jackson talked about his coaching philosophy. Jackson has no previous coaching experience, but was hired by the Warriors in June.
"When you're talking about coaching, you're talking about someone who has a responsibility to impact players on the floor. But I truly believe that you're also talking about someone who has the responsibility to impact players off the floor."
Golden State had previously interviewed for positions with the Knicks, Bulls, Hawks, Grizzlies and Wolves.
"I look at the talent, the upside, the draft, the coaching staff and the culture change," Jackson said. "I am not a guy who would say, 'We're going to playoffs' because it's a great headline. That's not me. In fact, people were shocked that I said only that, because that's not all I believe.
"I've been a winner all of my life, and I truly believe that great things are about to happen."
