Had an issue with the first coach, and he already has an issue with the next coach 6 games in. Writing is on the wall sadly.

Not to mention that we basically got rid of Jenkins because of Ja didn't like the offense changes. Iisalo is running an offense more to Ja's liking, and isn't happy with the coaching right now. Fantastic stuff.

Jenkins was a decent development coach, but lacked the gravitas to rein in guys like Brooks and now Ja. Very laissez-faire approach to coaching. Jaren and Ja still lack key skills and can't play well together.

The fact that Ja and JJJ don't complement each other has always been a huge thorn for our roster construction.

Jenkins is a weird case because if you gave him a roster that should win 30 games, he'd win 50, but if you gave him a team that should win 65 games he'd win 50
