So fire Corbin or not?

Punch Bowl Re-Filler
First he's a turd, then the Jazz get as high as 3rd in the conference and he's a great coach, maybe even a dark horse for COTY. Then the Jazz fall below .500 and there are renewed cries to fire him and bring in someone with more experience. Oh yeah, and he's absolutely terrible for playing the vets too much and not developing the rookies and soph's.

Now the Jazz have come up with a couple of big wins, are 2 games over .500 and knocking on the door of the playoffs. Suddenly, Ty is a genius again for not putting too much pressure on the rookies early on and bringing them along slowly, making them "earn" their minutes, just as his mentor, Jerry Sloan, would have done.

Are all team boards this bipolar?
 
Did you really need to start a new thread when there is already one that is basically the same thing?
 
Those who have stayed consistant on the subject are normal, centered, human beings. Unless you like Corbin.
 
Obviously, Ty is one of the best coaches in the league.

If we lose the next game though, we should definately fire him. Unless we win the game after that, cuz then he's awesome.
 
I still don't think he's right for the job.

I'm not going to give him credit for being forced to play the young guys due to injuries and deaths in the family.
 
Hey, he definitely went through a stretch where he wasn't making adjustments. Needed adjustments. Down the stretch tonight he ran the offense through Hayward and Millsap, with Al being the second big.

If Ty goes back to being a big more fluid/dynamic, then I'll be the first one to get back on the bandwagon. He was awful last month. Case closed.
 
Fire Ty!!

He couldn't even turn tonight's win into 2 wins!!??

Excuse me, I'm late for my prescription pick up........
 
Just like the players, the more experience Corbin gets the better coach he'll become. It's all about experience.

Well, sometimes I get a bit depressed posting in an old thread and then the thought of starting a new one really gets me excited.

please PM Cy before starting any new threads. He has a goal of getting 3 responses into the first 15 replies of every thread in 2012. It's a new year's resolution.
 
I have a lot of questions about Ty. However, no reason to get rid of him unless we know what the other options are. Good coaching is pretty rare and getting rid or someone who's not good enough doesn't by default get you the guy you need. That being said, I'd bring Phil Johnson back if he'd take it. I'd also trade Al Jefferson and a draft pick for Gregg Popovich.

Oh of course not!...Come back to me when we start losing tho
 
I think that if the Jazz do make the playoffs, the general consensus around the league will be that Corbin did a great job balancing the imperative to win with the need to develop the young players, while keeping the veterans happy. I'm guessing that already this is what many people outside this discussion board are thinking. Although I am peeved at Corbin for some of his decisions (#1 being starting and playing Bell), I have to admit that in the grand scheme of things, he's done a pretty good job. I mean, this was one of the absolute worst teams in the league that second half of last season. All it's done is add a couple of rookies and one over the hill veteran and it's vying for a playoff spot in the loaded Western Conference, having beaten many of the top teams in both East and West, despite giving two two-year players and two rookies reasonably extended playing time. I think that those wishing for Corbin's departure are going to be sorely disappointed at the end of the day, even if we don't make the playoffs.
 
21 minutes for Favors tonight and 12 for Kanter. So basically nothing has changed. The team played well but he's still not developing the youth.

So I have no answer. Why are they playing better? I though it was because Bell and Jefferson were out. But tonight Jefferson played and the young guys went back to limited minutes and we beat one of the best teams in the league. What the hell do I know. I was calling for his head 2 weeks ago. Now I don't know.

Did you just?
First the Lakers, then the Durants, now you???

I have to run outside and see if the world is on fire.
 
Boler just said on the post-game that the Jazz just didn't "have enough bodies at the end". What a ****ing clown.

Burks was the only Jazz bench player to play more than 20 minutes. Kanter and Carroll got 11 each, Tinsley just 13. Favors at 19. Every Jazz starter played 50+ minutes.

DNPs for Watson, Evans and Bell.
