Lindsey is recruiting all his Jazz guys to Dallas

Happy for AJ. A great coach and an even better man.

 

[Thee Idiotic Minivan K]

No idea how he isn’t a head coach somewhere yet?

He will be soon when Kidd is fired.

I thought the Jazz front office rotted him. He was super loyal even turning down the U of Utah head job. He kept the ship afloat when Quin got Covid. Maybe Ainge and the new owner just couldn't stand having a Utah alum around.

The good new for him is the Utes job should become available again in a couple years and I doubt he passes on it again.

Jensen is great. He will be missed.

 

[Coach Ellis]

That’s a solid get for them. And in all honesty, Dereck Lively is a great fit for him. Jensen has a knack for getting the most out of tall, long, defensive centers.

Really wanted to keep him around I’m sad about this

Because he’s an Utah alum? You actually think that?

I dont think with Ainge but I do with Ryan. He bleeds blue. I don't see Ainge being loyal to anyone.

Ainge fired DL

What? You think he paid Elijah Milsap to say those racist allegations?

The only thing billionaires are loyal to is the money. Everything else is expendable.

I thought he would resurface in Atlanta with Quin. The Mavs drafted a Duke big with their first pick and Jensen developed Rugy Gobert pretty well.

I pray to god he doesn’t do business like that

I would imagine that it was Hardy that got AJ ousted preferring to stay with the Boston pipeline. I like Hardy but part of me will always wonder what Jensen might have done for us. Happy to hear that he’s still in the loop and hopefully one day gets that head coaching gig.

Look at what Smith has done with the broadcast folks since he took over, which I think is a downgrade.
