    It doesn't matter who D'Antoni hires as his defensive specialist. D'Antoni sucks. He had Steve Clifford as his defensive specialist in L.A. And they still sucked on defense.

    Wouldn't be surprised at all to see Daryl re-sign after seeing this clown show of a coaching search done by his boss. My god.

    Ok, he is not as bad as some think, better than what we have had for a while.

    I wonder if they were afraid of Dwight opting in and forced him out with this?
