I hold grudges for a long time. I finally let my hate go for DWill. I’d love to see Williams hired on as an assistant

I just couldn’t with DWill… the guy was prickly but he was just honest. He had some points too as Sloan was a little too controlling and old school.

"The Ty Corbin middle ages" LOL

I loved Al Jefferson the personality… but man those were some tough games to watch.

Gonna be a record number of trade demands once those new jersey’s are official.

I think that was a players mentality and I think Sloan rubbed off on him. He didn’t seem like that as far as I recall in Brooklyn but it was a long time ago, who knows.

He wasn’t mr. Popular in the Brooklyn locker room.

I was sad when D will left cuz I loved watching him… but I totally got it from both sides. I honestly never hated him at all… it was a gut punch seeing him in another jersey.

Tbh… we should hire D Will to do something… would help let Don know the grass ain’t greener and such. Willy has never spoken ill of Utah… since we didn’t get the reunion tour this can help make up for it.

I loved Deron, still do. I heard we are having a night for him next year similar to the Boozer day this season.

His defense was....... poor. He had some awesome post moves though which was counter acted by his black-holi-ness

The biggest problem is his and Williams skill sets didn’t mesh all that well Al wasn’t a rim roller at all, and needed to be fed in the post. While Deron was a pickn’roll pg.

I'm starting this thread because I think this is the general thought process here. I wanted to make a thread for it because it needs to happen. I really hope the Jazz are starting to realize that Donovan will not ever be happy. Not here or anywhere probably. May be an unfair assessment but hey that's the way some people are. Insatiable thirst.....
Is there a possibility Ainge can see through the shenanigans?
Can Ryan finally look himself in the mirror and say.. Man this guy "jest" is not the cool guy I want representing the Jazz.

Anything besides this crazy media garbage we as fans have been putting up with would be nice. I've been watching the Jazz religiously since the age of 6 and that was over 30 years ago and I can honestly say that this **** show supersedes the Sloan/Williams, The Larry and Karl drama, the Haywood shenanigans, the Ty Corbin Middle ages, and the down slide of DL and his talent decisions.

I think you forgot how miserable the Corbin era was

This is a bit of historic revisionism. Corbin was only here for 3 full years and the first two years, the team had a winning record and a bunch of young players we were generally excited about.

Sure, in hindsight it was all a bit of a disaster, but you can go back and read forum posts around 2012 and it wasn't all doom and gloom. I remember being excited about the team, Corbin notwithstanding. Not like many of us expected him to last more than a couple of year, and there were generally positive vibes early on about the long term potential.

But yeah, we had Freedom who was 19, Burks and Favors were 20, Hayward was 21. Even Miles was only 24 and occasionally dropping 40-point games that made us all think he'd actually amount to something. Jefferson and Millsap were 27 and 26 as well. Sure, the board argued endlessly over whether those two were part of long term plans, but none of us expected our management to be so idiotic as to let them both walk away for free. Jefferson, of course, was All-NBA within 9 months of leaving, and Millsap was at the ASG. I feel like if we had gotten some kind of value for them(at least picks, for crying out loud), we might now look differently at those few years.
