    I just don't see how D'Antoni is going to be a good fit for Chicago. His offensive style calls for a team that can get up and down the court in a hurry, and I can't imagine guys like Noah, Marshall, Hughes, and Deng being able to keep up with that. But, I can totally see someone like Tyrus Thomas flourishing under him. Honestly, I've been saying this from day one, but I really think the best fit for D'Antoni would be Dallas. I think Kidd, Dirk, and Howard would really thrive under his run-and-gun system.

    Any team in the NBA can run IMO. They are pro athletes. Also, I don't think PHX gave D'Antoni permission to speak with WCF teams did they?

    Chicago has a young, very athletic squad. There might not be an Amare or Marion in the bunch but from top to bottom that team is more athletic than Phoenix.

    I think people will realize that D'Antoni isn't as good of a coach as they think once he goes to a team without Steve Nash..

    The Phil Jackson effect: coach great players, then you look like a genius.
