I was wondering if that "He will return next season" from last week was the kiss of death. Indeed it was.

Should be an interesting off-season, to say the least.

i doubt it, way more issues with bringing pau back that had nothing to do with d'antoni. his possible contract demands and how long he wants to be signed for and his desire to play for a contender.

Honestly wish Mike all the best. He maximized this roster as much as possible. No other coach would have done anything else considering the circumstances.

Wow I was not expecting this. I was fully convinced he would be coming back next season. Good decision but who's the replacement? Rambis? There's really no good coaches available right now.

I don't think he was particular good but most of the issues isn't his fault especially the first year he got hired. The roster wasn't fit for his system which is Jim and Mitch's fault. The past offseason where he got more players fitting his style of play the offensive system made the team play over their head but the defense was some of the worst i've ever seen.

I'm sort of indifferent to be honest, he's not the coach of the future but people used him as a scapegoat far too much.
