Wah wah, this dude made a thread on the internet!

Here, reformatted to suit you god damn whiney types:

"By gum, if the Jazz win 54+ games and have a positive road record, I see a good chance for Professor Jerry Sloan to finally win coach of the year!

How do you fellows feel about this?

These other chaps also seem to have a chance at the award this fine 10-11 season!

Keith Smart
Byron Scott
Monty Williams"

The Coach of the Year will go to the unexpected performance of Monty Williams' New Orleans Hornets or the terrific job Byron Scott did in making the Cavaliers a competitive team despite losing LeBron, and then all the ESPN talking heads (who picked the other two guys ahead of Jerry) will say I can't believe Jerry Sloan has never won coach of the year. Something's not right.

The award is a joke and I'd personally prefer that Jerry never wins it.
 
Jerry would not win the award if he won 73 games this year.
He and Stern spat in their palms and shook on it.

He is in the running for the lifetime award for poor substitutions and timeouts according to some on this board.

However, in the last three games, Sloan has been masterful. It was like he took coaching to a new level. Calling different defenses at different times, playing D-Will the entire first quarter, taking AK out for 1 or 2 minutes rest and then right back in. I saw a coach working as hard as he could to get victories in games people had written off. It was amazing to watch. Give him coach of the year if he continues. It won't be a lifetime achievement, it will be earned.

He always does these things, you just never took the time to notice.
