Marked Man: The Pelicans would be wise to hire Mark Jackson

It's been close to two weeks since the Pelicans pulled the rug out from underneath former head coach Monty Williams. If I may, here's my stance on the Monty situation since I wasn't able to partake in the most recent roundtable: yes the timing of the decision to ax Monty is bad, but I'm not about to say that it was an unjust one. I think there's a difference in "wow I can't believe they fired him" versus "wow I can't believe they decided to fire him when they did." Sure, the franchise handled the timing rather poorly, but you know what, sometimes life comes at you fast.
