Jackson is an incredible A-Hole so yes.

I found an article with a Jackson interview that is kind of telling:

quote:

---

Some people are anxious and excited to try to climb all the way to your seat. That's unfortunate. Because whatever job I've been called to do, I want to do that job with everything in me, and have no eyes on anybody else's job. That's just not how I do business.

Mark Jackson is a paranoid dude

Stealing this from Fear from the other thread.

“He’s the best guy in the league to me as far as scouting reports,” Rondo said. “I call him Baby Thibodeau. Thibs is the best at it, to me, defensively. He’s the best defensive coach I’ve ever played for. (Erman is) pretty much a miniature Thibodeau.”

“(Erman) does the same thing, he works just as hard,” Rondo said. “You can’t really beat him to the gym. When Thibs was here, you couldn’t. I’d try to get to the gym at 7 in the morning, the only guy there was Thibs in his office. And (Erman is) pretty much the same way. It’s paid off for Thibs and it’s only a matter of time before (Erman) becomes a head coach.”

Rondo is reputed to be one of the bigger film study guys, so this is like the class valedictorian saying Erman is his 2nd favorite teacher. Pretty high praise.

Don't really know him, but he looks good on paper.

I hope it's at least photopaper.
