So... I realize this probably isnt a very good first post on this board, but I couldn't help joining to put in my 2 cents on the matter... I realize this isnt about Corbin, but lets compare this season... What was Carlisle record this season with an above average team? (skill wise) 36-30... Now lets take Corbin, and what was his record on first (semi-full) year as a head coach and below average team... Record 36-30.
So my question is who is a better coach? It seems pretty obvious that it's Corbin.
Give the dude a break, of course he is making mistakes! He's new... while all of us sit on our butts watching the game, thinking he's an idiot... There is a reason you are where you are, and he is where he is. He knows more about basketball than any of us will ever dream of. He'll get the rotation down, he'll learn more about playing the younger guys over the vets.
I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume that everyone calling out Corbin also boo'd Hayward when he got drafted? I think it's a joke that as fans we can't wait one or two years to see what happens. To see coaches/players develope. We assume the worst and head for the cliffs. At the very first sign of a struggle, we jump..
The Jazz surpassed any and all expectations of them this year. Why is that? Probably Corbin. I'm excited to see what he has done with everything he's learned this year.
