    Jazz haven't been out of the 1st Round since 2007.

    Can Pop and Snyder keep the streak going another 10 years?

    This could be a situation like Carlisle/Dallas last year, where both sides just realize that the team has hit a wall, and isn’t advancing. You can mutually agree to terminate a contract. No more money, but freedom to pursue other options.
    Yes but this was reported as a resignation where they wanted to keep him and offered him an extension so that would be drastically different.

    There were rumors that Carlisle didn’t like Luka and they were butting heads, nor did he like Mavs GM Nico Harrison, who is 13 years his Junior, coming in and telling him how to do his job when he’s been there for a decade. Carlisle get disrespected so he packed up and headed for Indy. This seems more like Snyder sees the writing on the wall with Utah and realizes he can’t win with that roster, particularly when your two best players don’t seem to like each other. While management may have told him they were considering going another direction, I think he ultimately made the decision to jump ship.

    Snyder will be gone by next year if things don’t get better (and it doesn’t look like it is), so he left on his term. It has nothing to do with the Spurs. But with the looming Pop decision to eventually retire (soon), he could align himself as the heir apparent. Snyder is a no non-sense Coach and someone I could see taking the helm.

    Things obviously could change, but there aren't a lot of vacancies left. Philly still seems committed to Doc for whatever reason. Lakers just signed Ham to four years and added Rasheed as an assistant. Kings just brought in Brown.

    Where else is he going to go? Does anyone think he wants to leave the Jazz to go coach the ing Charlotte Hornets?

    Obviously the landscape can shift after just one season...some coaches will probably lose their seat next year.

    In an ideal world, Snyder joins as a lead assistant and gets a season or two under his belt before Pop hands over the keys...or he gets a soft commitment from the Spurs, takes his year off, and is lined up for the job going forward.

    The Lowe Post - Jeff Van Gundy and Tim MacMahon | ESPN Snyder-Spurs discussion starts at 1:01:45.

    MacMahon "No, no; I don't think it's why he resigned. I do think that the Spurs job is why Quin is not necessarily wanting to rule out coaching next year."

    "If he (Pop) does decide to retire that is the one job right now that I could see Quin being interested in for next season."

    Two questions:

    1. Who do you suggest as Pop's replacement?

    2. Are you ever happy?

    Thank you.

    This gives you a stiffy:
    an eight-year run where the team won nearly 60% of its games but never got past the second round of the playoffs

    Not me.

    1. I will address that when it becomes applicable in 4-10 years when he does retire.
    Sooner if Pops health or new ownership influence acts sooner.

    2. As regards Spurs basketball, hey the 20 year run of Duncan was great.
    I knew after '14 there would be an extended downturn and also knew his "I will retire when Duncan retires" was a falsehood.
    Was very happy with Kawhis development when we were on our way to another Chip.

    Since Zaza it's been very depressing. At least last year a partial rebuild began before the silly selfish record book pursuit of W's over tanking teams moved us to back to 9th.

    Hardy is interviewing for the Jazz HC position, ironically.

    Uh huh. Tell me more about teams not getting out of the 1st round when they did over and over!

    I like that story.

    Here was the 2015 score:
    Among active coaches with at least 5 playoff appearances:

    14 -- George Karl (22 playoff appearances)
    7 -- Phillip Saunders (11 playoff appearances)
    5 -- Richard Carlisle (11 playoff appearances)
    5 -- Glenn Rivers (11 playoff appearances)
    4 -- Gregg Popovich (18 playoff appearances)
    2 -- Erik Spoelstra (6 playoff appearances)
    2 -- Thomas Thibodeau (5 playoff appearances)
    2 -- Stanley Van Gundy (7 playoff appearances)
    Since then Craig Pop has added two more to be at 6. Albeit in 30 years or whatever he is at.
    Snyder is at 3.

    Quin Snyder:
    an eight-year run where the team won nearly 60% of its games but never got past the second round of the playoffs

    Factual enough?

    Yes that was incorrect.
    The Jazz have been out of the 1st Round in the last 20 years.

    ^ Have you ever said "I'm starving, I haven't eaten for 20 years."?
    Or ten years, or two weeks?
