OFFICIAL: Utah Jazz will not offer Ty Corbin a new contract

[gregbroncs]

I'm will to bet that next years team won't be as bad as this years team defensiy!!

It would be pretty hard to be worse than this year's team on the defensive end.

Not if they draft Jabari. But it's apples and oranges and you know this.

I know, they are both fruit!!!!

This is great news. Corbin seems like an affable individual, good head on his shoulders, but he was out of his element. I welcome the change and support Dennis Lindsey.

If you think a coach is going to walk into ESA and set up a system in year one then you're setting yourself up for disappointment. Next year will likely be a step back as far as schemes and complexity goes.

There's a big myth here that Steve Clifford has found a way to hide Al Jefferson in his defensive schemes (so much hate and vitriol will lead to crazy *** notions like this). If you read Clifford's interviews you'll see how asinine this suggestion is, right from the horse's mouth. Clifford, like every good coach, has installed a base NBA defense and relies on his on-ball defenders to limit the amount of double teams they have to use. He has stated several times that he could do more stuff, but his team isn't ready for more complex rotations. There success is all credited to MKG's elite defense, and solid ball stoppers elsewhere.

Those expecting a new coach to bring success are going to have another miserable season on their hands.

Next year will be a step back? Based on what? And when you say a step back, are you referring to losing more games?

What do you define as success?

I agree. But Corbin had 3 years to set up offensive and defensive schemes. Jazz never seemed to have any recognizable system. So I guess all the Jazz players are just terrible and Corbin was a basketball genius but could just never prove it.

It will be a step back as a new staff installs their sets and rotations. But I expect we'll see at least minimal progress as the year progresses. I don't think we saw that with Corbin the last two years.

 

[Zulu]

Again, how is a coach going to make the defense better by installing a simplified system? You're deceiving yourself if you think we're going to find the next Steve Clifford or Tom Thibbodeau and magically change anything. Clifford would tell you that himself.

Doesn't have to be dramatically different just not worst in the league!!!

MKG missed 20 games this year and averaged 25 minutes in games he did play. But Charlotte's D is all cuz of him rite!! Sounds like something somebody made up :/

Hopefully Franklin makes like Sloanfeld and mcBounces now

Here's the video to the press conference:

https://www.nba.com/jazz/video/2014/04/21/dlmp4-3245552

Dennis Lindsey:

- We are going to look for the "New Leader" for the Utah Jazz

- It will be a very objective process, then progressively subjective. We will consider 'the full platter' of options.

- Championship teams are generally top 5 offensively or defensively

- Being a Defensive program is very important to who we are and we want to establish that foundation

- When Ty found it, he was disappointed but first class, and professional.

- Regarding lack of playing time for young guys: "The HC is the one who decides playing time. Ownership or management never dictates that. There are discussions regarding it, but ultimately HC makes that decision. Ty did a fine job."

- Firing: "It was a collective decision."

- Timeframe: "However long it takes to get the best man in the seat". Won't be pressured by draft, etc. Need to find the right person. It is a "monumental decision"

- Ty sticking around: "I will never rule that out".

Lindsey touched on everything I wanted to hear.

What's new. He claimed in another thread that Jefferson was a top something or other 3 point shooter. It was a bald faced lie. And when called out on it he ignored it. He'll say anything to defend his boy Corbin. Does not have to be true or hold any basis in fact.

I honestly think he's trolling. I'm not falling for it.

Probably. He's good at it. But he's been consistently on Corbin's jock. Won't admit anything the dude does is bad, or his fault. I really think he may be related, or Corbin himself.

I'm only repeating what Clifford has said on multiple occasions. Are you claiming he's lying when he says his defensive schemes are very basic, common NBA schemes?
