    The Knicks sucked, bro. And the Lakers were a MESS. And since those teams were a mess, maybe he learned from that and become a better coach and control messy tings better.

    Would need to hire ALL 3 for me to call this a win. MDA because he is Les' favorite.

    Kalamian because he is Harden and Durant's favorite.

    Lionel Hollins because this damned team needs to play some friggin D. And if no one likes him on the team, even better. This team needs a guy that will get in their grill consistently.

    A couple of old videos of SAS criticizing D'Antoni. Not meant to be taken as analysis, but it's hilarious stuff.

    Does anyone else not realise we're in huge danger of losing Harden in 2018?

    The coaching staff & supporting cast we've surrounded him with is an absolute joke. We'll be an even bigger laughing stock after the next 2 seasons & will probably leave for LA/Boston to win.

    Or maybe he just adds to the mess, or the actual mess maker. Hoping I am wrong because this is going down regardless.

    With our current situation, why the hell not? At this point it doesn't really matter anymore.

    D'Antoni doesn't fit with this roster. It's going to be like when he was with the Lakers. You need the right types of players.

    Well if MDA is the main guy, I hope he's having some input on who he wants on his staff...

    (Trying to convince myself more than anything) I don't think the sky will fall defensively.

    The S7OL Suns ranked what, 16 in defense? Considering the the guys they had playing major minutes (Nash/JJ/Marion/Amare/Diaw), with only Marion being a great defender. I'd say 16th is pretty good.

    Pair a GREAT defensive coordinator with Beverley, Ariza, Harrell, KJ and Capela and I think we can be mean on that end.

    All this meddling from ownership is just crappy and Kings-esque. Morey is being held back from doing his job in addressing our biggest flaws.

    I just think there may be something salvageable here with the right assistant coaches.
