Gordon Chiesa on 1320

[NUMBERICA]

Isn't the whole point of having a new head coach bringing in new blood? Hornacek's fine, Layden can do whatever he does as long as he doesn't ever make an actual decision, but I'd rather Ty go outside for the rest of his hires. Get the guys he wants, not the Jazz Hall of Fame.

I agree with you to a point. The biggest detracting factor to the idea is that we're mid-season and valuable assistant coaches are hard to find mid-season as most of them are already under contract.

Kenny Natt or Gordy Chiesa as stop gaps would be fantastic(even though Chiesa is already under contract as a scout). With a full offseason, I fully agree with you.

Draft Gordy. That is all, carry on.

 

[Jazz Spazz]

Gordy rocks.
I hope the reason Corbin is waiting to hire is because he knows who he wants, and is waiting for that person.
It would be even better if it was Gordy.
He did mention also hiring a Developmental coach.
I think they should get a "Big Man" developmental coach as that is what we need most right now.

Anyone who has heard Gordy break down basketball on the radio knows he is the real deal, and that he can communicate the game in a simple, easy to understand way. This is what the players need.

Is it just me or is it weird that there's no audio of this on their site? What show was it on?

He was on with Alema Harrington. I had to leave for a while but was suprised he was still on when I came back briefly. If the man can explain how to defend a pick and roll to me over the radio, he can help the Jazz.

Ty said on kfan the other day that with a looming lockout the assistant position is difficult because they may only have the job for a short time and then be out of work for a year, so they may not fill the position this season. Horny is only signed for this season as well.

 

[Mustang84]

That's why I missed it... I was confused by the "best of"... like it was a best-of show or something.

I love this guy. Please hire him Jazz, even if its just to do PR.

He said now the players on in the hot seat not Ty Corbin.

Said he talked with Jerry yesterday and Jerry is at peace.

Ty is making sure that each player knows exactly what is expected.

Expect many quick-hitter, drives to the basket tonight.

Very subtly points out Deron has been at center of pick & Roll defense troubles.

Not surprising considering the hints that Sloan was dropping all along. Even AK subtly pointed it out sometime back when he said the guy who gets screened eventually doesnt help others. While Deron might be good on one-on-one defense in iso plays his pick and roll defense hasnt been all that great. In years past everything was pinned on Boozer, but Deron might have been part of the problem all along. Especially, against quick guards.

I think even as late as last week Sloan said that there is no point in letting yourself get screened and then cry loud that "Iam screened". Who gets screened on P&Rs a lot? The guys on the perimeter or the big men inside?No guesses as to who he might have been talking about.
