But we all knew something was wrong with this team...give the team, the players, the front office, the owners props for keeping it under wraps this long. Sloans system was not working and everyone knew it...well, except for the apologists.
Head Coach Jerry Sloan to resign today :(
- Thread starter Dad

It's not right how Jerry is leaving.
It only means that the organization was dysfunctional, and still is.
It may be KOC and/or it may be DWill that is the major problem, but Jerry shouldn't be leaving just a game after resigning.

Exactly. I have never heard deron blame a teammate. Blame the front office? Sure. TBH He has never publicly blamed a member of the coaching staff.
So true.

I've had problems with their website stream all year. If you have a android phone or iphone then download the app. THe stream is much more stable.

Wrong. Hayward. He's 20.
hmm... KOC was telling Sloan that they're trading AK because Greg Miller doesnt want to pay the tax & Sloan got pissed & said if this happens, me & Phil are out ????

Stockton and Malone were great, great players. Jerry Sloan and Phil Johnson were JazzBasketball.
Since 1981, the Utah Jazz had been the only franchise in professional basketball where ownership cared more about the head coach than the players. With Larry Miller gone, that is no longer the case. The equation is now Deron>Sloan. The new equation will be Deron>new head coach. Whether you think that is a good thing or a bad thing, the direction Greg Miller and Kevin O'Connor are steering this franchise is quite clear. The organization is now no different than the Indiana Pacers. I have my own strong opinions, but only time will tell if that will prove to be a wise move. The 2003-04 season was termed the "New Utah Jazz," but 3PM MT on February 10, 2011 will mark the real beginning of the "New Utah Jazz" era.

I was just using the reasoning that everyone else at the meeting got canned. Now that we know more, AK seems much safer.
uh, is this a joke? how about after that playoff loss in San Antonio when he threw all the team's Euros under the "vacation" bus? that was a few years ago, but still.

Sadly, Jerry took us as far as he could.
I just hope DWill isn't the punk he's looking like.
