Though Jazz coach Quin Snyder would not address the fairness of the Phoenix Suns' decision to fire Igor Kokoskov, Snyder's former lead assistant with the Jazz, he did expect Kokoskov to be back coaching soon.
"We talked," Snyder said. "I don't need to comment on the situation (with the Suns.) You can imagine my thoughts. I will say having worked with Igor recently and over the years, as far back as the previous century, I know what a quality coach he is, the kind of person he is. There's no doubt in my mind he will have future opportunities.
