There's a new chapter to the saga of Jazz coach Jerry Sloan's battles with center Greg Ostertag.
     
Ostertag entered Utah's 107-81 loss at Sacramento on Tuesday night with four minutes and 45 seconds remaining in the opening quarter and the Jazz about to go down by seven points. Barely more than two minutes later, the Kings were up 16 and Sloan had to call a time-out because, he said, of Ostertag's play.
     
Sloan yelled at Ostertag as he sat on the bench, and Ostertag shouted back as the coach yanked the 7-foot-2 backup center from the Jazz lineup. Ostertag at first walked away from the Jazz huddle, then returned, saying, "It's my fault. . . . It's all my fault" loud enough for fans in the front row to hear. He sat all the rest of the first half and did not play again until garbage time late in the second.
     
"Same thing," Sloan said when asked what happened. "Greg got upset because I took him out; I got upset because he didn't seem to understand where he's supposed to go. You have to call a time-out to try to tell him sometimes."
     
It's not the first time the two have had a run-in.
     
Earlier this month, Ostertag was suspended one game because he bumped Sloan while angrily walking the sideline at Memphis. Ostertag, who refused comment after Tuesday's game, also was suspended for disciplinary reasons last season.
