Quin Snyder is the new coach

[mellow]

Nice find Cy.
Easy to see the Lindsey connections...

"Wells’ NBA career began in 1995 with the eventual NBA Champion Houston Rockets (1995-2004) where he worked his way up from assistant video coordinator to assistant coach. From there, he went on to fill the same position with the Los Angeles Lakers (2004-05) under Rudy Tomjanovich before spending four seasons with the San Antonio Spurs (2005-09) that featured the 2007 NBA Championship title. He wrapped up his time in the NBA with the Washington Wizards (2009-11)."

Wonder what his role will be? Hoping he's a developmental coach and the Jazz are still pursuing Chip Engelland.

I met Snyder briefly recently. Nice guy. But I didnt sense a commanding presence from him. For one he is simply too short for the job. Hope the guy proves me wrong.

I cuaght the John Stockton interview on today's Dan Patrick show and was surprisingly blown away. Smart of course but much calmer and more articulate than I ever expected. Me thinks we missed the boat, if of course he did want the job.

Quin Snyder is 6'3." He's taller than Stockton. I guess since height is so important, it's a damn good thing JVG wasn't interested in the job.

As for Ellis269's post, I heard Wells is a defensive specialist.

And Messina is still expected to go to the Spurs.

"By NBA rules, a team is not limited to only three assistant coaches. The rule states only three assistants can sit next to the head coach during games."
So unless someone leaves, that would make SEVEN assistants on the Spurs coaching staff.

My bad. Maybe it was his auro (or it was just me). He seemed much smaller than Stockton from a couple of years ago. Stock does have a his statue here though. Today's interview was impressive.

Do you actually think that Stockton said "I want the job" and the jazz declined?
