“I (Jerry Sloan) don’t think it’s a number of years thing,” the Hall of Fame coach said Friday. “I think it’s just a day-to-day thing, as far as the way I look at the whole thing. I’m Utah Jazz, I think everybody knows that. But the light gets a little dimmer as time goes by because I’m 71 years old.”

“I’m just trying to find my way,” he said. “I’ve never had a job like this before. I don’t have any guidelines to go by.”

So far, Sloan’s job has consisted of some scouting duties and providing some insight to his replacement, Jazz coach Ty Corbin.

“I’m here to help any way they might ask me and to be out of the way when it’s my time to be out of the way,” Sloan said.
