What's new

Jazz coaching staff MUST get Horny.

I cannot see Mike Brown coming. He's had too much success. He's just waiting out the right offer. But I do hope Corbin brings somebody in whose total focus is the defense. I seriously think we've had less than 5 hours of film study on defense all season. Which means guys are just doing the basics they've learned all their basketball lives.

Agree. Hopefully I'm allowed to rep you again.
 
Horny has said multiple times in the past he doesnt want to be a coach, he likes retirement. He just likes being a able consultant and be with his family. I think the only reason he'd come this year is because its only half a year, and could be a good test to see if he likes it.

I guess you lied or were misinformed:

Hornacek, a part-time shooting coach for the Jazz, said he has aspired to be a full-time assistant coach when the time is right.

The Jazz need to add 2 assistants, correct? Horny and Chiesa should be slam dunks. Chiesa as lead assistant would be a really strong move. Listening to him talk about the ins and outs of basketball is amazing.
 
The title of this thread speaks volumes.



And I approve of Hornacek being an assistant.
 
Coach Ty should bring Gordie Chiesa back as his principal assistant, lots of experience in Utah, but also with other teams around the league. Plus the guy is the best interview.

Yep, he's easily 20 times better on the radio than Nissalke is.

Horny later said that with his kids out or mostly out of high school, he would be interested in coaching. When his kids were still young he didn't want to be back out on the road coaching. (Wow, I'm not old, but I sure feel old realizing Hornacek's kids are that old. Seems like just he was saying 'hi' to them at the FT line).

Agree with Jazzman12, Hornacek and Chiesa would be 2-top notch assistants. Chiesa bleeds Jazzbasketball, and he loved to preach "help-the-helper."
Help-the-helper comes off the concept that alot of players are reluctant to play help-defense because they don't want "their man" scoring easy baskets. If you get that 3rd-guy covering for the help-defender, that's how you play unselfish and swarming defense with great rotations.
