What's new

You are Ty Corbin...What do you do different?

More Hayward & Evans.

I think it starts immediately.

Pacers fired O'Brien and their Rookie , Paul George is now getting around 20 minutes a nite.

He is now developing.

Also, push the ball. We need more freebie points in transition. We play a slow lazy pick up game now.

Push it hard, if it is not there, back into some plays.

Pacers are getting a good 10-14 pts a nite with easy transition hoops. They won 4 in a row (best streak all year was 2) and almost had the Heat beat.

They run. They changed immediately after O'Brien. We cannot afford to wait 10 games.

This. Evans brings so much energy to the floor. Hayward is really active, too. I'd rather see him on the floor than Kirilenko or Miles.
 
If I am Ty Corbin I make a deal with Deron: give D-Will freedom on offense, and D-Will helps Ty knock some of these players around, until they clue in on defense. We are defensively worse now than we were with Boozer, and that's really saying something. If the defense does not improve, nothing else matters. D-Will and Corbin have to turn this Jazz into a defensively solid team like it was in the 90s if they want to contend.

Actually, if anything, I hope Ty's offense is focused on proper floor spacing. Too many teams were able to pack the lane and give us trouble in Jerry's sytem. We have reasonably good shooters on our team, but it seems like getting an open 3-point look is far from a regular occurrence. Besides, stressing ball movement (more than just a couple feet per pass) is something I think needs to be addressed, too. Make defenses switch and rotate constantly.
 
If I'm Ty Corbin I try to convince KOC to get as close to equal value for DWill by this year's deadline. With the CBA and lockout looming, there might not be a better time to trade him, and I'd be betting that he was on his way out anyway. As paradoxical as it sounds, as Ty Corbin I think this gives me a better chance at sticking in this job since it is then clear that I'm coaching a rebuilding squad (and we'd be young and talented, with picks coming in).

I'd open up the offense quite a bit, focusing on transition O.

Creating a defensive identity is where I hang my hat. This is item #1 on my to-do list.
 
Trade Deron.

Yep. I said it. And my blue #8 jersey hanging up 5 feet away from me heard it too.

I have a feeling Deron is becoming Lebronbitchisk. He wants glamor, he wants all star games (which he'll never be a starter since he can't garner enough votes in Utah), he wants trophies, he wants attention, he wants money, media deals, etc.

If he can't win a championship here in the next few years, he'll bail out and join a team of 2-3 other all stars.

Trade him, and get some good stuff in return. A few nice wings. I love Steph Curry. Get us a nice young PG. Somebody quick (like Chris Rock from Houston who can drive right past Deron).
 
Does that mean he misses a jumper every time he touches the ball?

No when AK was in his prime he has the ball in his hands to set his teammates up. Like how he won us that golden state game after all of our point guards went down. He was great. I just want to see AK doing that for 20 percent of the game. When Deron goes out. That is what made AK good. having the ball in his hands near the free throw line is scary. He is very creative at that point. He doesn't look for the jump shot when he is dribbling. Which takes the jumper out of the equation.
