Owner Real Deal Posted February 10, 2011 Owner Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Jazz's Sloan appeared shaken up after game. Said he had a conversation with GM O'Connor. Would not discuss it Jazz's Sloan said postgame discussion involved assistants, GM O'Connor. Sloan took two Qs on chat, then said he'd only discuss game. Jazz's Sloan said media would be informed Thursday about discussion between him and O'Connor. Jazz's Sloan answered every question asked about game, speaking for about five minutes. Fellow SLT writer said Sloan has never failed to appear for postgame interview. Took him about 35 minutes to come out of locker room. Jazz GM O'Connor is believed to still be in coaches' locker room area. Has not been confirmed, though. Definitely a very weird, unique vibe after Jazz loss to Bulls. Sloan was not himself. Still polite and attentive with media, though. Just informed that an interview request with Jazz GM O'Connor has been declined. Jazz were originally scheduled to practice Thursday. Has now been canceled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Kinda weird considering he just signed that 1 year extension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChosenOne Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 I would hate to see him go out midseason but if it does end up happening then everyone knows it was just his time to call it quits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 If there's any coach who has the right to step down whenever he pleases, its Sloan. If its true that he's gonna retire, then good luck to him in his life outside of coaching. I'm sure he'll stay on with Utah in some sort of role though.
