Quin Snyder is moving on from the Utah Jazz. So what’s next for a franchise that has had to make few head coaching hires in its existence. The answer could very well shape the future for the Jazz. And the story, is here – theathletic.com/3350824/2022/0… – 1:40 AM
Ben Anderson @BensHoops
I’m grateful for the opportunity I’ve had to cover and talk to Quin Snyder over the last 8 years.
I suspect there’s an alternate universe where he’s a Supreme Court justice or a world leader, but he ended up in this weird corner of the universe.
He was always very kind to me. – 12:57 AM
Andy Larsen @andyblarsen
Just thinking about some big Quin Snyder decisions/moments, feel free to add your own:
– Essentially believing in Rudy Gobert, who seemed so raw under Corbin, to be a transformational starting center in year 2
– Finding 1,000 ways to attack Carmelo’s defense in the OKC series – 12:47 AM

With Quin Snyder resigning, imagine Knicks assistant Johnnie Bryant gets courtesy interview but Danny Ainge doesn’t really know him. If he’s seriously considered, Donovan Mitchell is influencing the hire. – 7:30 PM

Ben Anderson @BensHoops
I think this move makes a ton of sense for the @Utah Jazz and Quin Snyder.
Jazz have a pathway to try something new without starting a full rebuild.
For Snyder, there’s a real chance Philly, Atlanta, San Antonio, and potentially even Vegas and Seattle have open jobs next year. – 6:14 PM
Tony Jones @Tjonesonthenba
With Quin Snyder stepping down, Terry Stotts would be an obvious name to look at. But I think the Jazz take their time and conduct a thorough search. I also think they will be open to considering assistants – 6:09 PM

That’s big news! Quin Snyder stepped down as Utah Jazz head coach. After 8 years and 6 Playoff appearances Snyder terminated his journey at Jazz. He’s one of the most respectable coaches in this league. Interesting how gonna effect this move. #TakeNote

Quin Snyder: “I strongly feel they need a new voice to continue to evolve. That’s it. No philosophical differences, no other reason. After 8 years, I just feel it is time to move onward.

Quin Snyder remains eager to coach but felt that it was time for a change, both for himself and the Jazz, sources told @SInow. The question any incoming coach is going to have: Does Utah plan to build or are the Jazz headed for a rebuild? – 5:55 PM

Jon Hamm @JonMHamm
I bet Quin Snyder takes a year off and then returns to his roots as the head coach at Missouri.
That’s my unique take now top that someone – 5:52 PM
David Locke @DLocke09
Thanks Quin Snyder for an incredible ride. As a basketball junkie, watching you work was amazing. The hoops conversations always went to another level. Being able to call the games of your teams was an absolute honor. Wishing you only the best. – 5:49 PM

There have likewise been rumbles for months emanating from Salt Lake City that Jazz minority owner Dwyane Wade could push the team to consider Lakers assistant coach David Fizdale for the post after Wade’s years in Miami alongside Fizdale when he worked as an assistant under Erik Spoelstra. Knicks assistant coach Johnnie Bryant, meanwhile, is a known favorite of Jazz star Donovan Mitchell, but Ainge’s appetite for putting Mitchell’s interests first is in question after Utah catered heavily to Mitchell (trading for his childhood friend Eric Paschall and revamping the athletic training staff to Mitchell’s specifications) before Ainge’s hiring on Dec. 15. -via marcstein.substack.com / June 6, 2022
