What's new

What shouldve been done at the beginning of this season...

It amazes me how we are still in Utah the way we've stayed friendly with personnel. If Greg Miller owned a restaurant instead of a car dealerahip, he'd have long been out of business because all of the **** employees he hired would never lose a job.

Wtf ever happened to the term, "a business is a business".
 
Games were easier to lose toward the earlier part of the season. It's funny that apparently we're stepping up the tank, or so I hear. Do we not realize the an L at the beginning of the season is just a valuable as an L now, only easier to obtain? It's a good thing we got those first 15 in the bag so quick.
 
offer hornaceck a 2014-2015 head coaching job.

and do whatever to tank and develop this year meaning buy out every single vet

Guaranteed contracts are guaranteed contracts though. A business operating like a business wouldn't pay people to not do a job.

Well, I don't think there are universal answers for what a business that operates like a business would do, but I can't help but imagine that any business with sense that's operating for a profit would realize that it costs less in the long run to get rid of something or someone that will compromise the future of the company or continue to cost more money, even if that means having to spend a little money (in riddance) to save money. Now, whether the vets Dutch refers to fit the criteria as outlined above is another issue.

I've said this before, but it makes no sense to get rid of Ty this year. The time to get rid of Ty was last year, after the AS break and promote Horny to HC. You have to pay Ty anyways, he sucks as a coach, and no good coach is going to sign with a train wreck of a team like Utah...unless they have a Parker/Wiggins/Embiid. So, you won't get a good coach, you'd have to pay him for multiple years, on top of paying Corbin for this year, with the chance that after one year, you dump the new coach for an even better coach.
 
Horn axel would suck with this squad. It's a bad match which is probably why the DL told him to coach elsewhere.

Lawls. You troll too hard. It makes it to challenging to decipher the here and there posts where you're actually stating something you believe.

Hornacek is a run and gun style coach. You really think that would work here or just trying to pester me?

Will firing a coach and promoting an assistant to interim coach really increase ticket sales? How much will that coach be able to do mid-season to improve the team? You still have to pay a guy to not work, which is bad business. It's not paying a little to get rid of them, it's paying them the exact amount as it would be to have them stay.

I don't know why it wouldn't. Hayward and burks would both thrive in transition. Marvins outside shot would work well with what horny likes to do. Favors struggles offensively, but I think he would be good at running and dunking. Trey really couldn't do any worse than he is currently doing. Evans on the wing during a fast break for lobs and dunks seems like it would be good. Plus most of the team is young and athletic.

Also we have one of the worst defenses in the league right now..... Maybe if we used the altitude to our advantage and just run every chance we get along with taking shots early in the shot clock, then we would tire teams out and hide our bad defense.

Worst case scenario, it doesn't work and we lose a few more games and get a better draft pick.
This SHOULD be the year to experiment with things but instead we just keep our super slow pace (I believe we are 29th in the league in pace of play) even though we are near the bottom of the league record wise. Maybe corbin really is tanking
