Why is he on the Utah Jazz coaching staff? Anyone believe he has a role in the Mavs Org?
February 7, 2026
Hiring him to be an assistant coach would be a very underrated and lowkey quality hire to help us through the healing process.
Hope he returns to Dallas someday. He will always be a legend here.

Doesn’t mean he’s a good coach. Plus he kinda dissed Dirk when with Celtics.
I didn’t even know he was with the Jazz. He should be a Mav for life. No title without JET!
The lack of credit he gets for that title is insane. I love this man.
Ummm it’s a job
Feels like something weird went on behind the scenes with JET. He wasn’t at Dirk’s last game, retirement celebration, or the statue unveiling, even though he had major parts throughout Dirk’s career. He also hasn’t been featured in any of the alumni stuff the team has done in recent years that I can tell. Shawn Marion, JJ Barea, Kidd, Chandler, etc. have all had roles within the organization since their retirements yet we never see JT. Could just be a coincidence but it seems odd, particularly since he is in the coaching profession.
31 should be in the rafters
Unpopular opinion Jet shoulda got the finals mvp
He still looks like he could play 5 mins a game
Barea is away as well with the Nuggets
J terry the type of dude to suck the D in and penetrate their bigs
remember when he punched finley in the nutz when he was with the spurs during the 2006 playoffs? lol
I went to the same PT as Jet the summer heading before he went to Boston and a year after the Mavs championship. We would warm up in the stationary bikes next to eachother. And I forget what I ask/said but I remember he seemed very despleased with Dallas as a whole. Something definitely happened but he kept it pretty surface level and I didn’t pry.
Looking more like Aries Spears by the day.
I was at Hero last month after a Mavs game and there’s was some nfl playoff games going on. JET was there in the VIP section.. so I’m guessing he was at least at the game?
I like Jet—no hate. He carried us too during the ’11 Finals run. But I think he didn’t like that all the spotlight was on Dirk.
JET is dead to me. He said KG was better than dirk
