Greg Miller does not like Karl Malone. This is why Malone is not already a Jazz big man coach, even though he’s the greatest power forward of all time. Daddy’s boy Greg Miller’s ego is far too big to even consider bring in Malone. It’s not an issue of money. It’
s because Greg Miller is a pussy.
If even the multi-millionaires are ready to work for free, how poor people can only imagine survive ??
I’ve seen plenty of work ethic in Kanter. Favors has talent, didn’t seem to come as prepared as he could have been in the offseason, maybe Karl would help there. Millsap is a pro and hard worker. Jefferson and Millsap to a lesser extent need to be taught how to set a decent screen. I wouldn’t mind seeing Karl Malone on the bench next to the other guys. I think Corbin’s afraid (and maybe Greg and other FO types too) that Karl’s personality is too overshadowing.
I wouldnt mind this. I think Favors and Kanter have plenty of work ethic already. Malone also has a man crush on Al and wants us to resign him which really annoys me.

Here is a link to what Karl said … it seems like a good idea, Greg Miller just might be skeered…I think it is definitely Malone’s strong personality. I still think the Jazz would be crazy not to take him up on it, and like Malone said “If not, I’ll be the first one to say, ‘Guys, it ain’t working.’ And they don’t have to say nothing.”
Karl has offered that so many times over the past couple of years. The first couple of times he offered, Greg said he would be happy to have him on the coaching team if Karl was willing to make it a long term arrangement. Then Karl and Greg had that falling out over Sloan.
I am surprised that Karl likes Al so much, as much as he has talent, his game is limited and probably of the 4 players he is the one whose work ethic and mentality that really needs work. Kanter and Favors need to work on their NBA game and find out just exactly who there are and what they can do, but they have a better mental attitude and work ethic than Al.
I’ve always thought that Malone would be the perfect guy to help our bigs. Not only could help their conditioning, but he could help them with their game. They should take him up on it.
I think Malone have a better vision than Corbin, I saw an interview on NBA at the begining of the season, he has been saying to use Burks as PG and give him the minutes he deserves, I think he sees the potential on Burks.
Anyway I would rather bring Stockon back and coach part time, if we draft a future PG in the coming years, which we definitely needed, Stockon will be able to help.
Why not bring in the two best at there position John And Karl don’t be scared!
