How would you react if Jackson coached Pacers?

Now I'm not trying to say Bogut is better than Hibbert, far from that. My question is how would you react if your coach was Jackson and as per his coaching philosophy Hibbert was played in the same way as Bogut and only used when his opposing matchup was on the court?

It's hard to tell really Mark in golden state is a offensive coach we don't have the great shooters. Instead we have great defenders. I prefer Vogel as our coach the guy has done so much for the pacers

I think you need to give Jackson some more time in Frisco. Not to be funny, but would Thompson/Curry have happened under another coach? Before Jackson GSW was a team relying on David Lee for offense, now it is a team that has both a strong defense and a host of players that can be counted when push comes to shove.

I have a Dutch friend who is a massive GSW fan and he is quite happy with Jackson, despite odd rotational issues.

Jackson isn't playing Bogut because Bogut doesn't buy into the praise Jesus stuff Jackson does. If he were my coach, I'd demand he keep his religious Mumbai jumbo out of the work place and make decisions based on basketball and not Jesus.

Hibbert is a much better player compared to Bogut. If Jackson were coaching Roy, he would probably change the way he played his center.

I imagine that Jackson is keeping Bogut's minutes low to keep him healthy. As such, it's better to have him play those minutes against the better competition.

And let's keep assumptions of sex and religions out of it until and unless it's reasonably proven true.
