The End

The only problem with your theory and long rant, Jazzfan, is that a Deron trade had been floated earlier in the season. That doesn't sound like an owner or GM who wants to blindly follow their superstar.

The problems with Deron may have played a part in Sloan leaving, but I don't think it was the entire reason. I think Sloan just grew tired of multiple players not running the offense, of the poor defensive effort most every night. The fun was gone. Great players inexplicably walk away: Barry Sanders in the NFL, Karl Malone when he was in sight of the all-time scoring record. And Sloan when he just had 2+ seasons to go before becoming the all-time winningest coach. Don't forget, he got the job when another pretty good coach just decided he had finally had enough.

I don't know if that proves much.

Nor do I know that it's true. It's a good line to pass around to the media, though.
 
And as with so many events that are dramatic, unexpected and ugly, as quickly as it happened it's now over.

It's all over.

Decided to read the last few lines of the drable and fell on the damn floor! This ish is great!

I actually thought it was a well thought-out post and had some insight. Didn't agree with the whole thing but I appreciated your POV.



But the incessant trollerism ex post facto makes it hard to take it any more seriously than a set-up for some elaborate inside joke for an audience of one.
