Edit: SDU on the Suns board pointed out that it doesn't sound definite, especially when it comes to the passage about Kerr making demands for Mike next season, so....I don't know what's going on.

Suns need a coach that knows that defense >> offense

I hear Bill Russel will coach some defense into these choke hards.

I don't see why they're blaming D'Antoni for the fact that he doesn't have the players who can play defense... It was Colangelo first, now Kerr.. They should be fired for putting these players on the team. D'Antoni can only coach the players he has.. and has done a damn good job.

Thank you God if it's true, maybe fewer dumba$$ decisions...not to foul on a three when the guy shooting is a centre.
Seeing as even lakers fans are applauding the move I'm glad it has come to pass.

What about Avery Johnson?

Seems like a dumb move to me, and certainly unjustified. It would be sick if the Nets fired Lawrence Frank and picked this guy up.

Like I said, Dallas and Phoenix should probably trade coaches.

I live in Toronto and watching these Raptors make me sick.. If they had D'Antoni as the coach, I may just watch their games.
Luckily, I have a dish and I'm a Spurs fan.

JVG or Carlisle or Avery time for Phoenix...
I thought it would probably happen, with knowing the Suns wouldn't make the finals again, and then with how the Spurs series turned out...
Ultimately for the best... he had his short-comings that ultimately played a part on the team, but still had a quality run, bringing along a good and very fun team, and one of the most intriguing teams of all time.

In that case, JVG or Avery probably to the Suns.. and D'Antoni will surely be re-hired very soon.. possibly by the Raptors
