The most important factor in Jets’ Aaron Glenn pursuit is also their glaring weakness
NY Post
The Jets have never exactly been masters of great timing.
Consider team owner Woody Johnson’s ill-advised firing of head coach Robert Saleh after the team’s 2-3 start this past season and the disastrous collapse of the team that followed as Exhibit A.
For more history, you may remember how well the forced marriage between head coach Rex Ryan and general manager John Idzik worked out.
Good timing hasn’t been a strength of Johnson’s. That makes now a good time for him and the Jets to get their timing right for a change.
In a different time, in a season to come, we may be inclined to wax poetic about the way this one played out. In a different time, in a season to come, the Nets will be seeking to stack wins and not losses, will be fighting for playoff seeding and not for a few extra ping-pong balls in the draft lottery this spring.
The NBA has an All-Star Game problem. Despite Adam Silver’s efforts to inject juice into the February showcase — including a format alteration to the 2025 game that is too confusing to attempt to understand before it’s inevitably changed again — there’s little interest in watching teams eschew defense for a series of layup line highlights. That also means the most entertaining part of the NBA All-Star Game is just like the Pro Bowl — debating over who should get a spot.
