O'Connor: Jazz could hire big man coach soon.

Jose Ortiz?

Billy Paultz?

Ostertag?

Borchardt?

Ok ok I kid. I wonder if they will bring in Malone to help with our bigs. Could be worse choices that is for sure.
 
My vote would be "Thanks, but no thanks" to Malone.

I can see him clashing with Corbin all day long with comments like "In my days.. guys used to work out 7 days a week, 6am - 10pm. So don't give me that they need some time off ****. I ain't buyin' "

Car crash waiting to happen IMO.
 
Doesn't sound like it's Malone.

Corbin wants coach in for start of camp. Said announcement could come Friday.

Reminded many fans want Karl Malone, Corbin said Malone would have to be asked and reminded it's a full-time job.

Corbin also wouldn't bite when asked if coach had past ties to Jazz, but acknowledged it's very important for development of Kanter, Favors.

I agree with the those who say it probably isn't Malone. Malone's not the coach-type, so I don't think it'd be a good fit anyways. I was trying to think who the best person available would be for a position like this, and while we might have the same chances as Lloyd getting w/ Mary Swim? Swammy? Slippy? Slappy? Slimmin? Sommon? Simmon? Swan? Swenson? Swanson? SAMSONITE (I was way off), I'd go ape if it were The Dream.

While it's a long shot, it's possible. Guy doesn't coach for anyone, but he's always "consulting" with young bigs to help them in the post. I could see the Jazz using him, much like how they intrigated Hornacek into the picture. He could still live and work out of Houston, but maybe they figure out a way to bring him in or bring him on road trips to exclusively "consult" with the Jazz. While most Jazz fans will be clamoring for the Mailman, I'll be clamoring for Olajuwon.
 
John Stockton.

He can coach big guys, have you seen his footwork, and screen setting.
Not to mention that game face he puts on when mad.
 
Olajuwon for Development Coach
Malone for Strength and Conditioning

Hakeem had such beautiful footwork, and so many moves & counters.

I would be a very happy jazz fan to have Hakeem on board teaching the young bigs! Count me in.
 
What about the utes old coach Boylen? Wasn't he the big's coach for Houston for Olajuwon and Yao Ming. He's coached some of the best in the game as far as bigs go.
