Utah Jazz head coach Tyrone Corbin has been lauded by many members of the media organization that is owned by the same company that also owns the Jazz. (Sometimes called "al-Jazzera") He's not received the same type of universal praise from national media organizations or the actual free press of the local news papers. Still, literally dozens of fans have come to Corbin's defense this season.
The actual majority of fans, specifically those who don't even visit this site, have a different point of view. To help break down why people still defend Corbin we have Yucca going on a twitter rant. Truly, you can see that he's had to make a lot of tough decisions this season.
I think it’s about time to list some of Ty Corbin’s greatest accomplishments/playing time decisions this year.

1. Gave Alec Burks more minutes than Brandon Rush. Only a literal savant could have made this decision.

2. Finding roles for Marv and Gordon even though Dick Jeff HAD to start every game at SF. Serious outside the box thinking there.

3. Playing Enes Kanter more than 25 minutes per game when the only other option was Beans. That deserves a standing O, no?

4. Playing rookie Trey when he could have kept starting JL3 the entire year.

5. After several back and forths, he gave Diante Garrett the backup PG spot instead of JL3. Coaches get paid to make the tough calls.

Oh, I forgot; 7. Played Favors, the team’s best overall player by most metrics, ALMOST 30 min/game.

More: 8. Played Marv as the stretch 4 even when matched up against bruiser tradiitonal PF’s You make THEM adjust to YOU, dammit!

There’s literally no other coach who could have made these decisions and given the young guys minutes. Way to go Ty!

@AllThatAmar It probably should be a post.
