List of coaches Corbin is better than.

No offense to you, Xsy .. I just always find it funny when I catch us lauding mediocrity.

The Jazz are who the Jazz are .... The only reason the Jazz are even functioning as an NBA team right now is because they got lucky and drafted to of the best players of all time in the middle of the first round. We aren't going to pull the big names, we aren't going to get #1 picks, what the hell do people seriously expect? An NBA championship contender full of cast offs from other teams and a few lottery picks? Unless Kanter and Favors turn into dominant big men the Jazz are going to just be good not great and its not really fair or realistic to expect much else.

All true, but it doesn't discount the fact that 'almost .500' isn't something that should be used when citing something that's working.

The fact of the matter is that Corbin has a very average roster and is getting slightly above average results .... I have a very hard time believing any other NBA coach would increase the Jazz's win total by more than a game or two at most. Corbin isn't the problem, he isn't really the solution either but getting rid of him would be a huge waste of time. Now if he was greatly underachieving then ya, fire his ***, but I can't say that he is underachieving.
 
It's not just about the win total though. Is there any doubt we could have the same or similar win total while increasing out future win potential through better rotations and more minutes for our young cornerstones? Just saying.
 
One thing I'd like to see Corbin get his team to do is win more on the road (obviously). That's hard to teach when your go to guy is Al Jefferson and all the other players outside Mo are afraid of the spotlight in big moments. Bringing Hayward along should help. Kanter too but he just can't close at this point in his career.

Jazz playing just under .500 on the road would be serious contenders for a 4th playoff spot. I would consider that way overachieving for this team/coach.

I stopped at Doc Rivers. Who honestly would take Ty Corbin over Doc Rivers?

With their last two train wreck seasons? Rivers couldn't win more than three games over Corbin last season, even with an All Star studded cast and Garnett playing at times like he was 30 again. Comparing what Corbin has done with nothing to what Rivers has not done with everything is laughable IMO.

Possibly maybe, I get what you are saying, and I don't necessarily agree with it but coaches in the NBA cant sit around and say well we are going to lose for a few year so just maybe maybe Burks, Kanter, Fesenko, Humphries, whomever you want to plug in might develop. Their job is to win right now, or they get fired, I know everyone thinks TyCo's job is infinitely safe but I doubt he is willing to test the waters to see if thats true.

Yes, there is some doubt.

You're right. Lets run our offense through Burks and his contested 19 footers taken 19 seconds into the shot clock, or Favors in isolation situations on the right block. Or even better, see Kanter getting packed by bench bigs, let alone players like Gasol, Hibbert, et al.


I would imagine that many would think that the anti-Corbin act is much more nauseating than my posts.


Perhaps we should start a poll

Not sure why people hate you, you speak a lot of truth

There is little doubt with you, me, and some posters here. Others feel that Corbin has a secret master plan that will one day reveal itself when Marvin suddenly breaks out into a star, Big Al and Sap dominate together in the playoffs, and Randy Foye
shuts down Wade in the finals. All while the young guys stand on their feet applauding the vets in awe.
