Crazy...

I'd love to replace Rambis with him. But if this goes through he may just retire.

Jerrys done, and its a shame - he is a legend. 1,000 wins with one team, no one has done that.

I watched the Bulls Jazz game yesterday and he just didint look himself, almost disinterested in the game and it was a close one. Him and Deron clash because Deron doesnt listen, he made a key turnover late in the game and Sloan just shook his head, its obviously been brewing for a while.

Hes coached some of the best players in NBA history and has done wonderful things for the city of Utah.

I wish him a happy retirement

And how many people know that his replacement, Tyrone Corbin, once averaged 18 ppg for the Wolves?

Guarantee you not many lol.

Crazy though, I wonder where things go for Utah. I mean, he's been a mainstay there for so long, are they gonna find another good coach who wants to be there?

I wish him a happy retirement. Mine is coming in approximately 48-50 years.

The early days of the Wolves bring back some great memories...Corbin, Pooh, Campbell, Sam, et al


Krap - thanks for the trip down memory lane!

Don't forget Laettner and J.R. Rider!

OMG get him now!..

Is what every fanboy of a lottery team is thinking right now.

I can't believe this.

Sad news really, fantastic coach and a real likeable guy. Best of luck to the man.

wish he could be an assistant for the team or something. Buy himself a swell house in apple woodbury or wherever the rich guys live and he doesnt even have to travel w/ the team, just practice @ home. Nice and easy does it but he gets to scratch his b-ball itch

Rich guys his age live in North Oaks - median income ~$149,158, highest in the state...
just fyi

Sad to see him go, he is a fine coach. Good to see Ty getting a shot at it though, go Wolves

If we're replacing Rambis with anyone I'd rather it be the head assistant that walked out with Sloan. He was the heir apparent there until he quit and if Sloan had that kind of trust in him then so do I.

He is 69, Sloan 70...

Sloan is 68 and Johnson is actually older than him.

Sad day for any NBA fan, especially Utah fans. Hope he has a nice retirement, he definitely deserves it.

I want to hire him just for his reaction to Ricky's stupidity.

Wow I never thought I'd see that happen. I honestly thought he'd die on the bench from a heart attack at the age of 86 or so after one of his players did something really stupid.

I wish him the best in his retirement. Such a shame he could never win a title.

I don't know about that - he's basically been a dick his entire career. I guess you can argue it's more or less worked for him, but there's a long list of players who hated him.

if he was a dick I'm sure it was well deserved.
