Anybody want to question Sloan now??
- Thread starter Hanginthere
- Start date
Some posters here are a bunch of RETARDS.
I'll let you try to figure out who I am talking about.
But really. The jazz are having a GREAT season right now and yet there are so many people here who can do nothing but mitch and boan about it ALL FREAKEN DAY LONG.
I realize this is a messageboard, and heaven knows I have a history of posting on messageboards (some of you know what I mean).
But I really think some of you don't know how good we have it right now. The jazz are 22-10. They are 11-4 on the road. how far do you have to go back in history to find anything like this?

Can we stop talking about Bozzer? Please?
We had him for 6 years. He obviously wasn't the answer to a championship. Matador defense won't do it.
We're better off without him. And I'm not talking about Jefferson for Bozzer. Jefferson is currently our starting center. Boozer was rarely our starting center.
2010 Jazz statistically and by-record better than 2009 Jazz. Great. Let's stop talking about Bozzer. His 3% body fat gives me a headache.

TBH, I thought he was nuts with his bench lineup in Q2, but they DID get us back in the game. Can't fault that if you're a Jazz fan:
PG Watson
SG Price
SF Millsap
PF Okur
C Fesenko

No way we win this game LAST year...
It's SmartForum Technologies software trying to block you. Take a hint.
Are you talking about Griffin or the #3 dunker in the league, Mr. Smarty McSmartpants?
One little bumpkin reading about Boozer...
Mama called the doctor and the doctor said
QUIT ****ING READING ABOUT BOOZER IF IT GIVES YOU A HEADACHE CAUSE THE REST OF US DON'T REALLY GIVE A DAMN ABOUT YOUR PERSONAL ISSUES

I can think of many reasons.
1. Frank Layden stepping down, and Sloan (including his hard-nosed reputation) being in the right place at the right time.
2. Stockton & Malone being self-motivated and probably wildly successful no matter the coach under whom they had played.
3. An owner (may he rest in peace) who was content with--and loyal to--letting ol' Jer accomplish above-average performance (Who says I don't give Sloan props?
), even when the team had the potential to do better and despite never garnering even one ring (the Jordan excuse goes only so far, and he didn't play in the league for 20 years). 41-41 seasons were the exception, not the rule.4. An owner's son continuing the owner's legacy, including a tolerance--conscious or unconscious--of Sloan's disenfranchisement & underdevelopment of role players who could help the team. To Sloan's credit (Wow! Another compliment coming!), JS is more subtle about his inequitable and suboptimal treatment of players (based on performance) than he was in years past.

I agree but to give him his due, I would add that he IS a very very good coach with a great offensive system. He is not a championship caliber coach however, for the reasons we would both agree on.
