GM Survey: Sloan 2nd best coach, Phil best assistant

I'm suprised that Sloan beat out Pops. Maybe because Sloan does more with less. Best offense is a no brainer.

And we have the TWO best assistants!

Interesting. After looking at all the other categories it almost seems like Pop should be the 2nd best coach. Nice to hear our assistants getting some recognition.

I think Ty Corbin will be a good coach for the Jazz when Sloan retires. Phil Johnson may step down too once Jerry leaves.

Should be noted that Deron is considered the best PG in the NBA by a huge margin in the survey (despite not being able to crack the Top 4 in passing).

Who is the best point guard in the NBA?

1. Deron Williams, Utah 50.0%
2. Chris Paul, New Orleans 35.7%
3. Steve Nash, Phoenix 10.7%
4. Chauncey Billups, Denver 3.6%
- Last year: Chris Paul 77.8%

... Kevin Durant ranks at three different positions, which is sort of funny.

I like the Jazz assistants and wouldnt mind Corbin being the Jazz future coach, but I prefer Hornacek as the head coach. Hornacek seems to be able to get along and help different types of players such as AK-47 on his shooting and Memo on driving the ball. Harpring would also make a good assistant in the future as well.
Top 4 seed in the West!!! Guaranteed!!!

Of the current player list someone should have voted for Raja.

Lawrence Frank was a huge pick up for the Celtics, But our coaching staff even though they have not won a ring has been great for atleast the 15 years i have been a Jazz fan if not longer!

I see Hornacek as more of an assistant coach for right now. Ty Corbin would be my pick if Sloan wasn't the coach tomorrow.
