I'm not sure who was worse- Jackson or Isiah Thomas. At least Jackson drafted a stud in Porzingis, but then almost lost home this post season. I wonder if the Zinger spoke w/ Dolan about his relationship with Jackson.
Jackson's legacy is taking a hit right now, but his body of work suggests that he was good. I'm not sure how to rank him, but he's prob still a top 5 coach in NBA history.
My guess is that Zinger stays now, they try to create cap space, and sign a decent player in the next two years.
