Terry Porter the next suns coach

Porter is a good hire. He should never have been fired in Milwaukee. However I do not envy him. The Suns are facing a rebuilding process and they will get worse before they get better.

It's time for Terry to make a real name for himself and he has the roster to do it. While the Phoenix ownership saved money once again, I feel there are still better options out there, but Terry deserves his chance to get this team deeper into the playoffs.

And who where they supposed to get ? Avery and Flip are the only bigger names still out there and both have been exposed for various flaws in the playoffs .

Bad choice by the Suns. Porter only had one good year coaching, and that was when he was 41-41 with the Bucks. The Suns are most liley to take a step back.

I would have interviewed:

Jeff Van Gundy
Doug Collins
Rudy Tomjanovich
Paul Silas

It's obvious the owner is satisfied with the Suns just always being a playoff team.

He had various offers but declined all of them . Doesn't look like he wants to coach right now.
