Quin Snyder is the new coach

After reading through this thread and the links you guys provided(rep coming) I think I'm going to like this guy. This hire was about more than getting a good coach, it was about branding. One used to hear the phrase "Utah Jazz brand of basketball". The recipe changed for the worse and like new Coke(no pun intended) it just wasn't the ****ing same.

We all want an NBA champs banner to fly at ESA but let's be honest, even if we make all the right moves it's going to take a lot of luck as well. I am excited that regardless of who we draft or how much luck we have I will be able to watch "Jazz Basketball" starting next season under coach One N.




Note: I know that Snyder has an N in it.
 
Dude's greasy toupee is going to Holy War Greg's goatee if something isn't done. He needs a head shave, or Mike Miller Dalamon head g-string.

Good points. Someone else mentioned how these Corbin years were so dark and we lacked an identity. Can't even explain his nice it is that Ty the Turd is gone and we have Quin in place.

I think it is telling that in his 8 page article on the pick and roll he included 2 and only 2 photos; one of Stockton and Malone, one of Parker and Duncan.

if anyone missed it the first time it was posted>>https://www.fiba.com/downloads/assistmagazines/2010/FIBA_41.pdf
 
Ettore Messina I think was used to get information on Quin Snyder, I'm not entirely sure Ettore Messina was ever a candidate for the head coach opening. I think management made sure they covered all their bases in the coaching search and got the information they needed from Messina on Snyder. So I'm not entirely sure if Ettorre Messina ever was a real candidate for the head coach opening, so that should put your disappointment to rest that Messina was just used for his knowledge on Snyder.

Yea, the news that Kerr interviewed Blatt ticked me off.

I wanted that guy bad.

Wow, seems harsh and judgmental. They guy flew all the way across the country night before so he could be there for the 8:00 am press conference. Do you think Pop on San Antonio is a looker? Who cares what a person looks like.
 
Here's some interesting thoughts from Lions Roar (I think that's his name here) :

"@nsanba: Not super excited that Q said he would take upon himself to take care of D."

"@nsanba: Quin Snyder Austin Toros teams were never very good defensivelly."

"@nsanba: Quin Snyder's Mizzou team were also bad defensively compared w/ the teams recent history."

"@nsanba: Atl, LAL and Philly were middling defenses when Q was there as an assistant coach. The Jazz need to get a D specialist assistant."

Hard to argue with what he's saying. I know I'd feel better with an assistant coach that specializes running the defense.

^Agreed^

Honestly, I don't know why teh NBA is so behind the NFL when it comes to specialization of assistants. I like how in the NFL, assistants are given titles (Defensive Coordinator, Linebackers Coach, etc.).

Jazz need a defensive coordinator, shooting coach, and a big man coach for sure. Let Snyder coordinate the offense and focus on teaching the PNR.
 
As far as the Toros, I refuse to put much stock into his D-League teams defense. For obvious reasons.
