Re: Question about Porter...
Terry Porter was a control freak, not that it's a bad thing but he had way to many egos on that team, Nash, Shaq, Amare, etc...I think he would have been a decent coach if the Suns had just a whole bunch of young guys but it never works when you have egotisical players and a hard line coach. The same goes for the assistants I guess, two were former NBA players and the other was Gentry.

Re: Question about Porter...
the problem with porter was that he is a terrible coach, and he's abrasive and it's his-way or the highway despite however a team is constructed. what's different? Gentry is an awesome coach, with an awesome crew of full-hearted players.

Re: Question about Porter...
I think this quote by dragic sums it up, no matter how bad his english is...
"Last year, every one was sad, not in good mood...
this year, we are winning, and everyone is happy, and having fun!
