Typical politically correct statement from the coach.

Subtext: He likes Brad Stevens more than me.

To further lament Gordon’s departure does not honor the commitment we have to our current players. Therefore, I would like to personally wish Gordon well as he and his family move on with his career. As we move forward, we’ll continue to focus our attention on the place it is most needed and wanted, our players and the entirety of the Jazz organization.

Man, Coach Quinn is a great guy. Really looking forward to Jazzfanz coming around to this way of thinking, once the initial bitterness/grief wears off.

Gordon who? Go Jazz!

I think it was beautifully put.

I think it was beautifully put.

We should have the same attitude

Thanks Gordon. Best of luck

This was written by a professional writer and Quinn said OK. But it was fine. What I want to know is what DL is thinking.

Most players fail to replicate their success leaving Utah. Boozer, Williams, Jefferson, etc. Let's see if Hayward's college coach gets as much out of him as Quin did.

 

[Jazz Traveler]

Well written. The subtext I got was, it's done, no use crying over spilled milk, let's move on.

Do people even know what 'political correctness' is? ... even though we're all prattling on about it nonstop?

Snyder's comments were accurate. They were focused.

I'm also ready to move teh **** on. Gobert is an elite franchise cornerstone. I'm glad they're ready to get to ****ing work.

I thought it was interesting he used the same phrase as Favors used in his tweet.

Quin is extremely measured, poised, educated, and well-spoken. I would be shocked if he didn't actually write this.

Love that he said that we shouldn't let him reside rent-free in our heads anymore.

I saw the good luck part from quin but not the thanks part

I think it was beautifully put.

I'm sure all the fans would appreciate a WWE style "**** you" but the truth is there is no benefit from anyone in the FO/Staff being salty.

Quin is a brilliant guy, very articulate, so I actually think it's highly likely he wrote this. It sounds like he sounds in interviews.

Quin's original statement prior to being edited: "**** you, Dash Gordon! You left us just like you left your draft night girlfriend but you know what? O'Doyle Rules!"

Why do you say it was written by a professional writer? Quin has a law degree and a second graduate degree. You have to be a good writer to get through law school. Listen, I'm a professional writer and for seven years I had a gig doing profiles of lawyers for a DC magazine and some of them would proof the copy and they knew how to write very well, as well as most professional writers.

And I should add, well done, Quin. How can you not respect him?

It's a business. Good statement by Quin. Let's move on.
