Let's all move on now from last season and look to the new regime. Personally I'm sad to see D'Antoni go, I think if the front office wouldn've given him the correct personal, the 7 seconds or less philosphy had a chance to win a championship.
I know this poll may be premature, as Kerr is yet to really annouce any strong canidates, but maybe he'll check out the post and take the fans vote into consideration.
In a perfect world, I'd want Byron Scott, but the chances of that are slim to none.
first off i added you to my favs since you are a fellow Suns and 49ers fan. hope to see you in the niners boards this year!!!!
2nd i have no clue who its going to be if i had to guess i would think its gonna be majerle and johnson as head and assistant coaches, doug collin said he doesnt want to coach kerr said not t il his kids are in college, they already said that avery isnt considered, and havent heard anything about jackson being considered either. cant wait to find out who it is though!!!!!!
CBS says that the Suns will be talking to Mark Jackson and Paul Silas this week. The Suns have also mentioned that there are coaching candidates they like that are still involved in the playoffs. I looked at the assistants still in the playoffs and frankly I don't know how good any of them are. Nobody stood out as an experienced, well qualified Head Coach. What do you guys think?
just reported on the espn sports ticker that Kurt Rambis, former phoenix sun and current laker assistant coach is the current front runner for the Suns head coach position. then it also said that they are still going to interview mark jackson. im thinking it over and rambis sounds really good right now. he has the coaching experience(and was taught by phil jackson) and he was a phoenix suns player so that has me a little biased, especially since growing up in phoenix and playing ball and wearing glasses all my friends called me Rambis!!!! just a little biased here!!! hahaha
I just saw the ticker about Rambis on espn. He could be good, but didn't he have a short stint with the Lakers a while back. I just don't know if he's head coaching material. So far I can't say that I'm real crazy about anyone mentioned, but really, the Suns are going to have to open up the checkbook if they are going to get anyone who can lead this team through the playoffs. I just don't have much confidence in them at the moment.
Somebody who is not on your list, who you should probably take a long, hard look at is Avery Johnson. That guy got seriously shafted in Dallas. He's a pretty smart dude, and I think he'd actually be a pretty nice fit for this Suns team.
FYI for all you Phoenix fans Rambis did play for your team for about three years but he was a Laker player for nine years, plus all of his years of coaching. No sense in talking about him as a true Sun, cause he is a Laker and as weird as it would be I would start rooting for your team if Rambis is the man.
I'm just REALLY upset to see D'Antoni leave for the Knicks. As long as he was the coach, the Suns had absolutely NO chance to win a title. Now that he's gone, they will hire someone who ISN'T a stubborn, egomaniac who can adjust his coaching style when needed.
Yeah Kurt Rambis would be a great addition from the Lakers. Maybe he can bring over some of that shady business practices that brough Pau Gasol to LA. Maybe he can use some of his connects to get us Carmello Anthony for Brian Skinner and a second round pick.
WELL I THINK BEFORE WE GET A NEW COACH WE GET RID OF THE THORN IN THE BACK NAMED "STEVE KERR" HE IS NOTHING BUT BAD JUJU FOR THE Suns HE IS A MELTING WAITING TO TEAR THE TEAM APART. AS WELL SINCE HE HASNT HELS UP HIS END IE.. IN HIS OWN WORDS " IF THIS TRADE DOESNT WORK I LOOK LIKE AND IDIOT" WELL NOW HES AN IDIOT AND IT WAS THE STEP HE NEEDED TO TEAR THE TEAM APART. AND NOW LOOK THE Spurs GET TO FACE THOSE DOGGON ACTIN Lakers. I REFUSE TO WATCH ANY WEST CONF. SERIES THIS YEAR IN HOPING ANY ONE FROM THE EAST WINS OUT NOW. AND FURTHER MORE THE SUNS ARE GONNA BE WHAT THE MAVS WERE THIS YEAR ALMOST LOOKING AT THE PLAYOFFS OUTSIDE IN. SO BEFORE WE HIRE A NEW COACH GET RID OF KERR AND THEN WELL PROBLY SEE MORE APPLICATIONS FOR THE POSITION CAUSE THEY DONT WANT TO FEAR SCUM LIKE KERR PULL PLUG ON THEM LKE HE DID WITH MIKE AND HIS SCHEME. CAUSE THAT WHAT HE DID WHEN HE TRADED MATRIX FOR A SLOW AND PRUDINT SHAQ.
