Newman Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 (edited) Source Jerry Sloan has signed an extension to remain as coach of the Jazz, he told NBA.com on Monday, a completion of the formality that inks him to the Utah sideline through the end of the 2011-12 season. It was a typical Sloan-Jazz deal in every way – without any announcement and certainly without fanfare, with another one-year addition on the contract, and with Sloan quick to remind that he could still walk away after this season or that he could be fired. The first may happen, per his now-annual tradition of waiting until summer to decide whether to return to the grind, but a dismissal will not. “I’ve already signed a contract for next year,” he said after shootaround at Arco Arena in preparation for tonight’s game against the Kings. “That’s been since, maybe, around the first of the year. I don’t remember what the date was on it. I never pay any attention to it. They offered it to me and I signed it.” To be honest, this might be the first year in a long time that the Jazz have not been overachieving IMO and I can't picture anyone replacing Sloan any time soon.

*Swish* Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Jerry Sloan has been a great coach all season long so it's very understandable and expected to se the Jazz giving him the extension.. sucks they can't win because they have a good team and coach., Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
