That would be an interesting move - i think he could do a lot with our roster. Certainly wouldn't get swept.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwtaylor1055 Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 (edited) Dan Burke is the defensive guy for the Ps. Get an offensive minded head coach and I think this teams arrow points up and moves the needle.

Atkinson is another name being thrown out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwtaylor1055 Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 If it is indeed Mike D'Antoni, Ps about to average 35 3s per game with Myles averaging close to 10 attempts per game lol Myles about to be unleashed as a 7 footer running around the 3 pt line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've got 5 guys who can shoot 40% from 3, Vic can shoot mid to high 30s, Turner can shoot mid 30s, I think Sabonis could shoot in the 30s... The fact that we were near the bottom in 3PA this year was such bad coaching IMO. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwtaylor1055 Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 Going 3-16 in the playoffs in unacceptable, losing 9 straight playoff games. Yes no Vic in 2019, no Sabonis in 2020. BUT all teams deal with injuries its in the nature of the game. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 If they bring in Dantoni they will have to make some major changes. No way how he says that you can have Sabonis and Turner on the team together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just don't see Turner as a true stretch 4 and Dantoni likes to play small. I never thought those two players fit together and think they need to shop Turner.

IU Scott Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 Listening to the radio and they said that the starting lineup that you would expect only played 86 minutes together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billingsley99 Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 Going 0-4 in the playoffs and only leading for 11 seconds total and getting completely out coached by other staff will lead to a firing of a coach 28 minutes ago, FKIM01 said: Wait...didn't they just extend him?

FKIM01 Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 I have nothing against Nate...seems like a nice guy, but yeah, he was definitely exposed in the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATX_sig Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 They want D'Antoni. LOL. That is some of the ugliest basketball to watch ever that he coaches. Hopefully it is the Suns version and not the Rocket version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
