I'm on the right, just in case there was any debate.
 
People are going to believe what they want. I listened to all the interviews and I just think Sloan had enough. The guy is 68 years old and he always said he might just walk away someday. I guess people need a bad guy so they are blaming DW. Most of the people who are blaming DW either have never liked DW or maybe they are afraid of change. Time moves on for everyone. I just hope those who believe that DW had something to do with it, take a deep breathe and realize that most of the stuff that has been said in the national media has been refuted by the organization. They could be covering up but I tend to believe the Jazz instead of ESPN. Anyways, guys are going to believe what they believe. I will support DW and wish Sloan the best.
 
Of course people need a bad guy. Its what our society is based on. Its the easy thing to do...find someone that you can blame.
 
I think there's probably truth to both sides of this argument. While I do think the constant tug of war with Williams finally made Jerry walk away, it wasn't the type of thing that Jerry would have walked away from 5-10 years ago. I think he's being very honest when he says he felt like it was time. Jerry went to war with guys like Karl Malone, AK, Chris Morris, Deshaun Stevenson and Greg Ostertag during the course of his career. At the times of those run-in's, Jerry was younger and still felt the fire in his belly. I don't think his problems with D-Will were any worse than what he had experienced with many other players, it just came at a time when Jerry was near the end, and it helped him make his decision.

With that being said, I'm still very leary of D-Will right now. His leadership abilities have not proven to be that strong, he does seem to shift blame, he's recently had blow-ups with teammates during games (Hayward) and now we're hearing reports of him blatantly ignoring Jerry's play-calls in favor of what he'd rather run.I think there's more tense times ahead for the Jazz and D-Will.

I completely disagree.
 
I am buying that Deron was the main reason. And his leadership this year has been suspect at best with the way he has treated teammates on multiple occasions. I hope we trade him before we get LeBroned because it is going to happen.
