I have not always been in Sloans corner. But right now for this team? I absolutely think he's the best coach for this team right now. Outside of Pops that is. Pops is the best coach in the league IMO. He also has the advantage of having more talent than Sloan almost every year he has been coaching.
Also the "you go play in Utah" is more about it being Utah than Sloan. Face it we don't have the best weather, bars, or reputation for night life that a lot of NBA players are looking for.
I agree there are various factors that keep players from coming to Utah. I just remember the fall-out from that specific comment pointing more towards not wanting to play for Sloan, in that instance.
This is his team, mostly because he built it to fit his system. He is most definitely the best coach for this team right now. If we had a different coach who had some tenure we would have a different team. I would still be interested to see what a Hornacek team would look like. Heck let's just bring in Pop from SA. =)
