Jackson Believes Warriors Were Better Than Record Indicated

[finnegan]

You take a look … we closed the season with our four best players injured (Andrew Bogut, Stephen Curry, David Lee and Dorell Wright). … We are much better than our record indicated.

What a shocker!

[hoops4life]

Sure they were. They were busy tanking the last 1/3rd of the season.

[Getjazz]

Yeah, he's a cack whore!!!

[MeestR]

Is this him admitting to tanking?

[StocktonShorts]

Culture of winning!

[Jefff]

now the son of the owner is the new GM....... laughable franchise.

REALLY, MARK JACKSON? YA THINK?!?!?

And their owner is now part of the "Competition" committee... What a f***ing joke.

If Jackson thinks the team is better than it showed, then does that mean it was poor coaching that brought them down? Just saying.

No, he's saying the team would have been better healthy. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case.

Bottom line is that the Warriors organization is pure garbage.

LOL! Get over it. The Jazz didn't get a pick, so they have to wait a year because the Warriors got the number 7. The Warriors, the basketball Gods, Karma, whoever it is don't owe the Jazz a pick this year. Never seen a fanbase so butt hurt after losing a pick that wasn't theirs - especially after making the playoffs.

Trust me, I'd trade that pick for the playoff run this year - 4 game sweep and all.

GSW made their bed now they need to lay in it.

They wanted the #7 pick at any cost, which is usually the mentality of a child.

If GSW fans feel a half season tank was justifiable, then I don't know why they care so much about whether or not we hate them. If it is any consolation, I mainly hate Joe Lacob and totally understand why fans booed him.

Just please take note GSW fans, there is no quip, spin, or clever statement, that you can make that will all of the sudden change our opinion about the great tank of 2012.

Wow, drama queen much?

It wasn't "Get the #7 at all costs." if it was, it wouldn't have come down to a coin toss and lotto balls. Sorry that, once it was clear Curry was done for the year, and there was nothing to play for that the team shut down Lee and started the tank to benefit themselves as opposed to looking out for the Jazz's best interest

Lacob got booed for trading the team's best player and fan favorite a week before. Whether or not that was the right move is yet to be determined.

You guys still made the playoffs and go into next year as a favorite to return with two draft picks. Suck it up

Ok wimpering puppy! I am not going to respond to you any more. But feel free to get the last word in if that makes you feel better about yourself.
