Will Hardy expected to be hired as head coach

If they aren't trading Rudy this is a bold move. Alex is kinda the Rudy whisperer from what I hear from McMahon and others.

Eh, Rudy could do a little with having his cheese moved. Alex has done a wonderful job with him, but I think we may be at the point of diminishing returns.

Hardy was my pick, so I’m actually kind of excited. First positive thing to happen in a long while.

The first of many buddy. The first of many.

Also Will Hardy a good 3 or 4 years younger than Spo when hired. Not the same

Spo also came up in the same organization that hired him so they were super familiar with him and he was familiar with the team.

Does Alex stay in his current capacity? I’m fine with Hardy - though he’s not my first choice, I love the resume and he’s not a Don proxy. Just hoping Alex doesn’t lose out completely cause he’s a great coach.

Tony also told me that NAW was going to be in the rotation with the Jazz immediately... I do think you are correct but Tony reports what his sources tell him and they aren't always right or honest.

Or his sources are just one part of the org. No team is a monolith in how they view things.

A few cool kids were threatened by him so they made fun of him in front of everyone in the cafeteria.

I think guys would like playing with him. I think he is an outsider and didn't grow up in the AAU culture. Guys like Kyrie are well liked by many players... so I don't really care. I doubt any player seriously considering playing here decides not to because of Rudy... I think opposite is likely true.

Players still vote Carmelo for ASG and people act like we should hold their basketball opinions in high regard....

Tony still said his consistent line of thinking on the radio that if the Jazz don't make it further than second round they blow it up end of season when he shot down the "are they rebuilding?" question. So it might just be timing. TJ also mentioned the 5 year deal is in part to give security if they do rebuild.

Tony is notorious for being vague with his reporting, it could happen, it might not, we'll see. lol

So when is Mr. Hardy's press conference?

Same day as the uniform presser

Jazz don't have the luxury to wait for another short run to happen.
That would decimate the value of our guys.
Time is between now and February deadline, right now if possible.
BTW I'm now in the trade-Don-first-if-possible mood.

If he turns into Brad Stevens 2.0 I'm ok with it.

A coach that peaks in the conference finals? If he ain’t Spo he gotta go
