    Is Popovich the most overrated coach in all the history of sports?

    If Spurs had won the series the likes of zman would have shouted that the quick pulling out of role layers is the exact reason why Popoivch is a great coach and how he doesnt stick to substitution patters and blah..blah..blah You can twist any crap any way you want to based on how it suits...

    Is Popovich the most overrated coach in all the history of sports?

    Remember who you are talking to. It is futile talking to haters.

    Utah Jazz vs OKC

    That single draft pick is what the Jazz needed to get a superstar and win multiple championships. Because of that one missed pick they will never have even a remote shot to win it all again. They might as well fold their tents and hold a fire sale

    The Thunder

    The Thunder need more lotto picks like Harden needs more facial hair. They just need a trade or two to get some post scoring and also need to shore up their backup PG position a bit more either by just getting a better Maynor back or by upgrading that position in a trade. There is'nt a...

    Jerry Sloan - do we want him back?

    That's an exception not the norm. It is funny how Sloan haters like you keep repeating that one rare instance where the Jazz had a chance to draft a top 3 pick and Sloan was more involved than usual on draft day as some kind of ultimate proof that Sloan was the one who scouted and decided...

    Jerry Sloan - do we want him back?

    I find that hard to believe Popovich is a great coach. That doesnt mean Sloan is sub-par or lacks fudamentals of coaching. Only one or two teams in the NBA can afford to have someone like Popovich or Phil Jackson anyways. Sloan had to deal with what he was given with. As for player...

    Jerry Sloan - do we want him back?

    Blah blah blah..are'nt you tired of repeating this same crap? Maybe your boring job has really gotten to you. Or maybe it is me who missed Boozer turning into an all-NBA 1s team defense player leading Bulls to multiple championships under Thibodeau.Or the brilliance of Carlisle working for a...

    Jerry Sloan - do we want him back?

    Sloan should have quit right after the 2003-2004 season when it was obvious he wasn't making any of the substitutions that hall-of-fame armchair coach Ingamestrategy proposed. And for the same reason Corbin should quit right now

    Raja can't let it go

    To a Jazz fan the Jazz modus operandi seems to be like this: Do whatever it takes to quickly put together a team that can make the playoffs and get fanbase excited. Stay with them for a few years and make the fans believe you are going to eventually compete for a championship. But then dont...

    Raja can't let it go

    KOC actually does something when there is a fire in the house. Thats one of the few times he actually gets proactive. He traded for Korver after Sloan threw Girisuck out of a game and it became obvious just about to everybody that Girisuck was worthless. He traded Deron after Deron tore...

    Pacers Heat

    Disappointed at the untimely injuries for the Pacers. I really hoped the Pacers would take it to LeChoke in this series. Well looks like either Thunder or Spurs would have to do the job for me.

    The Perfect Offseason

    Get rid of the whiners while getting yourself a decent pick Get the young guys to come in better shape Get a couple of shooters(who can also defend or pass a bit) worth a darn via trades or FA signings And during the course of the above if you have to lose Big Al or Millsap or Devin...

    Jerry Sloan interested in Magic coaching job

    I would love to be a fly on the wall to listen in on the convo between Sloan and MJ, a player who twice daggered Sloan's former team. Charlotte needs a Hubie Brown like coach and I guess that might get them interested in Sloan. I think at this stage of his career Sloan is maybe looking at a 2 or...

    Acquiring a #1,2 option

    Give CJ Miles a couple of years and he will be the #2 option at least with a Rip Hamilton'esque game

    So who is going to win the NBA Championship Heat or OKC?

    Not sure who will win it all but will root heavily against the Heat. Glad that they blew a game already to the Pacers. I hope this means the series goes atleast 6 or even 7 games. Come on Pacers.

    Korver?

    Right, I remember that his effectiveness dropped in the playoffs a bit when he got sorted out. Iam not a big fan of players who pad up their stats in the regular season and then get easily sorted out in the playoffs. (Unfortunately Millsap seems to be a bit of the same even if he is a better...

    Korver?

    Kurt Kragthorpe should be fired for writing an entire article on just bringing back Korver, a servicebale outside shooter at best, a 10th or 11th man and nothing more. But I can see why he wrote that. Jazz have a habit of bringing back their own players from the past regardless of the erosion of...

    Lessons from SA Spurs? Thoughts?

    The lesson is as much for KOC and the FO as it is for Corbin and the young guys. We are starting 4 guys who have multiple years of experience in this league,3 of them have been to playoffs several times and a couple of them have been to the NBA Finals. I am not sure what is there for them to...

    Well, was it really worth it?

    Was it worth it? Yes, it will always be worth it. Both KOC, a Jazz guy and Kenny Smith an outsider have opined recently that playoff experience>draft pick.Not that I need their opinion as a validation, but some of you guys here just need to chill down and look at the big picture.No one picked...

    Why is Jefferson laughing/joking with Duncan?!?!

    If Big Al wants to get Duncan's autograph this series could be over pretty quick. I remember that criticism about Shaq looking up to Hakeem with awe in 95 and deferring to him when the Magic got swept out.Not that Iam comparing Al with Shaq but Al has to quit being a fanboy, even if he can't get...
