Jerry Sloan and Phil Johnson Appreciation Thread
- Thread starter vslice02
- Start date
I haven't read anything is this thread, but I do want to say that I will miss Sloan. He was like the crazy uncle I never had.
When I got his autograph he had the warmest most sincere smile I've probably ever seen. While Deron pretty much rolled his eyes at me Sloan seemed to really want to say thank you to each and every fan that came through the line.
I have a lot of respect for Sloan and I hope his legacy reflects who he really was.

The things I loved about Jerry:
Fearless, brutally honest, hard-nosed, exposed stupid questions with simple responses, fiery, rock solid, excruciating hard work, simple. old school, technical fouls, refusal to conform
Put simply, he represents to me all of the old-fashioned values that our grandparents had, our parents started to forget, we didn't think were relevant, and our children have never heard about. A living legend.

This is my 2nd appreciation post to Jerry & Phil.
Sorry Deron, but this had to be done by someone.
We all love you or some of us used to until you start whining to refs like Kobe & rest of those nuckleheads, started ripping Hayward in public, or even worse fighting with your own coach & letting media know about it which lead to loosing the greatest coaching duo in sports history. Probably it wasn't all your fault, but you were the last person that had to do something about it.
Once upon a time...
I don't care if you're going to leave or stay and help up win the championship, no player is bigger than Utah Jazz club, not even you!!!

I can't believe how much I hate Deron right now.
