Stephen Jackson: Fire Chandler Parsons, not David Fizdale
Chandler Parsons replied to Jackson: u make no sense and sound bitter. nba is a brotherhood . stop hatin
Former NBA Stephen Jackson criticized the Grizzlies for firing coach David Fizdale and said that they should have fired Chandler Parsons instead of the coach.
Via USA Today, U give 100 million to a guy that don't even care about the game or winning but u expect a coach to make a miracle happen," Jackson posted on Instagram.
Jackson posted a video shortly thereafter, telling the camera, "That was a fixed fight, man. You can't expect a coach to win with guys that don't even care about the game. You get rid of Zach (Randolph), you get rid of Tony Allen. ... When you trade players like that, you lose the heart of the team. ... You got players making $100 million (and) average nine points."
Jackson then posted a screenshot of Parsons' response.
"it's wild to me that someone who has been in my shoes, knows how hard it is to get here, and knows how bad injuries suck, to hate so hard," Parsons wrote on Instagram. "you mad i can provide for my family? i don't love the game cuz i had 3 knee surgeries? u make no sense and sound bitter. nba is a brotherhood . stop hatin."
To which Jackson responded: "u not my brother. Sorry all basketball players ain't cool facts. I've been better than u and still is. The fact is it sucks to see guys make coaches look bad because they don't wanna give 110percent. I love the game. Always have. We didn't take the same path. We are completely diff. It's not a brotherhood like u think as much as I've been hated bkuz I speak facts. Anybody would want me over u as a teammate. I hate to see where the game is headed. I'm from Port Arthur Tx u wouldn't know the path I took."
