I'll never forget when he was asked about the Jazz always blowing huge leads and insisting it wasn't a problem. Where were those memes I made...
That press conference was such a joke and he knew he was spewing diarrhea... he knew there were a bunch of incorrect stats as well. I wonder if he got some sort of assurances that they would move Trae if it wasn't working because if he couldn't handle Don and Rudy... good luck with Trae.

If I were Quin, I’d be playing up how Donovan Mitchell destroyed last season, was bumbling everything in the fourth quarter, was causing all sorts of drama, but because of Quin’s ability to put out the fire, he allowed the Jazz to return a historic profit off a Donovan deal, getting Lauri and Ochai and a bunch of picks.

I actually think he negotiated a clause that he can bail out if Trae leaves. They wont say it ofc (bad press) but I think he is there to win now and next year but Quin will escape if **** hits the fan.

I dont think he wants to rebuild in Atlanta. Retooling after Trae is hard since they dont have any guys with top 20 potential behind him and they dont own most of their own FRPs.

He has been suggested as top candidate for the SA job after Pops retires.. who are in a much better situation to build up.

Impossible, as clearly the people posting here know 1000% more than the other teams GM's and management, who all have Quin as one of the best available head coaches. We posters never are a slave to the right now, what have you done for me lately, nor do we live in our own little bubble that is our team because in no way is it a reality to go to any and every other team's message board and read every same complaint that people say about Quin they say about their team's head coach. Nope, never once has MIL fans clamored for Quin to replace Budenholzer just for example.

Quin is so bad he shouldn't be coaching elementary kids in Jr Jazz teams.

Heck if it wasn't for Quin the Jazz would be 5x NBA champions
 
Wow, just wow, McMillan out, Snyder in, for five years no less, and I thought the Wolves Brain trust was the dumbest in the league.:rolleyes:
To be fair, at the beginning Quin was really quite good. He did some different things and seemed to bring a different view to the organization when it was unknown exactly what we had and our key guys were young and inexperienced. He makes me think of some managers I have hired, who seem to excel when things are rough around the edges, like building new teams or developing and changing work culture, but when things are flowing smoothly they struggle to keep things moving in the right direction. Some people do better with some chaos around them and then not as good when wholesale changes turn into fine-tuning and maintaining incremental gains. Snyder seems to fit that mold.

Yep I can understand your perspective on that. My view is that they needed a disciplinarian and went out and hired a used car salesman. (Somebody like Will Hardy that likes to work and will yank yer a$$ no matter what your team status is when you’re going rogue is what the situation called for IMO.) And then they went and gave the guy The Godfather package Five year plan like he’s Pop or something! What achievement index justified that level of commitment?

But whatever the case, Snyder will have to come up with something completely new because no way that the old Utah Jazz game plan is going to work in Atlanta with their personnel.
 
I think Quin's mindset is a bit of a "all in" type of mode, whatever the decision or choice, it is 100% in that direction.

Like his first couple years was all player development then they made the playoffs and it was all defense, based on the players/personnel and the Team was top 1-5 in defense. Then after the FO made changes to get more offense he changed to all in on offense and the Jazz were top 1-3 in offense.
