Mark Jackson News

Doug Collins and Doc Rivers are two of the best coaches the NBA has to offer and we get to see them go head-to-head in the playoffs for the chance to go to the Eastern Conference Finals.

Deliberate is the key word in the Charlotte Bobcats' coaching search; the front office isn't under any time pressure to replace Paul Silas, so don't expect any imminent decision.

After finishing the regular season 7-59, it's no secret that Paul Silas, former head coach of the Charlotte Bobcats , is out of a job.

CHARLOTTE The NBA's highest-paid assistant coach apparently will be the first to interview for the Charlotte Bobcats head coaching vacancy.

The day that the Golden State Warriors hired former NBA point guard and ESPN commentator Mark Jackson as their head coach for the 2011-2012 season, many fans were asking "who" and "why"? Despite owner Joe Lacob instilling his confidence in Jackson, there is no doubt that another bad season will result in him being fired.

If the Charlotte Bobcats head down that assistant-ready-to-be-a-head-coach route, here are two names worth considering: Golden State's Mike Malone and Orlando's Steve Clifford.
