One last word on Scal.
If he was smart he would be coaching not acting goofy . Right?
Take another soon to be ex player Rondo for instance.. He'll be an NBA coach If were lucky here..
Damn Boss nice work on the poltical front..

I haven't heard enough of Scal, unfortunately, to give an educated opinion on how he calls games. I usually get the other teams announcers on DISH

I seem to remember that Scal was terminated as an Asst Coach or front office type when accused of conflicting advice or disagreement with his superiors ... he's outspoken but not the sharpest knife in the drawer was my conclusion.
I'll look for the story and post if I find it.

Found this:
Darren Erman secretly taped talks Apr 29, 2014 Chris Broussard ESPN Senior Writer
When Golden State Warriors assistant coach Darren Erman was fired earlier this month, the reason given was a "violation of company policy."
It turns out that Erman's violation was secretly recording conversations between the team's coaches and players, according to sources with knowledge of the situation.
Sources said Erman, who was coach Mark Jackson's second assistant, would record coaches' meetings, meetings between the coaches and players, and informal discussions among coaches that took place in the team's coaches room -- all without the participants' knowledge.
"He was taping everything," one source said. "Taping pregame speeches wouldn't have been that bad, but he was taping guys just sitting around talking in the coaches' office."
Sometimes Erman would be present during the tapings. Other times, he would leave the room and leave his phone behind to record conversations the other coaches were having.
It is unclear what Erman did with the recordings. The sources weren't sure whether he shared them with the club's owners or front-office executives.
"Was he taping it for himself or was he taping it for management? That's not known," a source said. "But he had a lot of communication with members of the front office."
Meanwhile, Erman has landed on his feet in Boston, where he will be the Celtics' NBA director of scouting, general manager Danny Ainge told Yahoo! Sports.
The Warriors' other coaches began noticing a change in Erman's demeanor and behavior in March, a source said. A few weeks later, they discovered that he was recording them. After being caught, Erman told the club he had been recording the conversations for three weeks. Jackson kept Erman on his staff for another week before Warriors' management fired him on April 5.
The Warriors released a statement Tuesday afternoon standing by their earlier reason for Erman's dismissal.
"As previously stated, Darren Erman was terminated due to a violation of company policy. We were unaware of the violation, and when made aware, we took immediate action. We will have no further comment at this time."
Erman's dismissal was the second bizarre event involving Jackson's staff in less than two weeks. On March 25, management demoted first-year assistant Brian Scalabrine to the club's D-League affiliate in Santa Cruz.
Sources say the team made the move because Scalabrine exhibited a consistent pattern of disrespect toward Jackson and the other coaches. Mainly, he ignored and refused to speak with the other basketball coaches. At one point, Scalabrine went five weeks without speaking to Jackson, one source said.
Scalabrine even avoided the coaches on the team plane, sitting in a separate section, according to one source.
The odd behavior of Erman and Scalabrine is emblematic of the dysfunction that has recently engulfed the Warriors franchise. Although he led the Warriors to 51 wins this season and consecutive playoff appearances for the first time in 22 years, Jackson's job is widely rumored to be in jeopardy.
One source insists that Jackson's relationship with owner Joe Lacob and general manager Bob Myers is fine, which makes his shaky job status hard to understand.
Admin: Ironically both men have been picked up by the Celtics and at least Scal is still here. Hedley expressed pride for those doing the scouting for the C's and though I haven't checked, it would seem that Erman is one of them if still here.

Erman is with the Knicks now last coached in Maine for the Celtics. Austin Ainge heads up scouting no clue who works with him. Not the brightest tool sounds better than flaming idiot.. Looked like Scal was trying to put words in Smarts mouth.. Smart did a fine job staying on point .. Scal is just a goof ball. Being an ex Celt ,White ,and Irish got him the job . Can i say that with conviction? Yep

but they let Jackson demote him to the G-League?
Did they bring Scal back after Jackson was terminated?
Why didn't Scal just quit rather than isolate himself for 5 weeks?
He's a strange bird ...

I believe Scalabrine is Italian............... I'm a surname freak. Wiki says Italian i'm suspect .. White Mamba was his tag.. Not from me.. Scalabrine is typically Irish sometimes British.. Viking raided and settled in the 800s hence the red hair... Brits resettled in masses the early 1500s i believe.... County Mayo or Sligo most likely . I don't care anyway. Scalabrine pimps a brand of Irish whiskey called 2 Gingers, a manly alcoholic spirit.
