Ty Corbin is the 9th most tenured coach in the NBA.

At best, Corbin is mediocre and uninspired. Bear in mind, the Jazz regressed last season with fewer excuses for bad play.

Anyway, I'm not sure I agree with a lot of the coaching decisions made this offseason (most notably, the firing of Dunlap, Hollins, and Karl). Corbin being the 9th most tenured coach is insane.

Ok we are just arguing over labels. But we agree he has continued the majority of his flaws? Has not corrected very many things?

Yes.

Al Jefferson will soon be gone and General Corbin E. Lee's offensive and defensive genius will be on full display. He'll finally have full control over the team and won't have to worry about pacifying baby veterans like CJ, Watson, & Roger.

I agree with that. We all kept saying, "just give Corbin a full training camp and season to see what he can do." Well, the results are in and the offense has regressed and their was no significant change in the defense. Ty kept making the same mistakes. He kept rewarding great performances with DNPs the next game (or in the remainder of the same game), Instead of calling his players to task, he'd just mumble, "it's only one game" after an sloppy game and/or key loss. IMO, Corbin has shown little leadership and no offensive or defensive imagination. He was almost always outcoached every game, as evidenced by the Jazz' terrible 3rd quarter performances. Blame it on Al, or Millsap, or Foye. Personally, I don't buy that "keep peace in the locker room" crap. If veterans aren't earning their PT (and I'm calling you out, Paul, Randy and Al), then they need to be benched. Give them a wake-up call, if only ONCE for crying out loud. Otherwise you send a message to then that effort isn't important. And you send a message to the young players that it doesn't matter for them, either. As long as the vets are healthy, they're going to play 30 mins. - no matter what.

I guess we'll see.

You know what's a travesty is that Tom Thibodeau is still coaching after playing Derrick Rose into the ground and then playing Kirk Hinrich over the 10x more productive Nate Robinson! Why does he still have a job it's insane!!!!!!!1

This is how "Fire Ty" sounds.

That's what happens when you sit old geezer point guards down at halftime to stiffen up.

I hope you're right..... I want to be wrong about corbin, and hope that he succeeds and becomes a great coach.

I'm just praying that Brian Shaw doesn't get a job this offseason so we can hire him next year.

I don't know why but i believe in Ty Corbin.

You are missing the point. I am not calling Corbin a good coach. All I said is that he has improved and he has. This entier post is all about him not improving as fast as you want. Well guess what? Join the club. However that does not mean he has not improved at all. Let alone get worse as you initially claimed.

I disagree with him having improved at all. I think the team has gotten worse the more impact he has on it. He may have improved in some aspects but he has gotten worse in others (or at least the team has, which is the only way I know to judge a coach). He's still super slow to make lineup adjustments. He's still unable to make in game adjustments. And he still plays the wrong players.
.
Honestly I don't think he should still be the coach. But I just hope the management does not use this season as just one more excuse for him. 3 years 3 different excuses. And Beantown's post perfectly illustrates this years lame excuse.
