D'antoni was a Horry hipcheck from going to the Finals and smoking Mike Brown's Cavs. On that team he had Nash and Amare. He then went to a team with no PG capable of running his offense. Now he is back with Nash and has Howard who is even better suited for the offense than Amare was. We can all agree that Nash, Pau, and Howard are all tailor made for the offense. The question is Kobe, right? Well, one of Kobe's favorite players growing up was Mike. He has three favorite coaches: Phil, Mike K, and D'Antoni. He LOVES D'Antoni. They have been friends for a while and Kobe has looked up to him since he was a kid. And his mentor Phil had great respect for those Suns teams. There were 3 coaches that would come in and immediately have the respect and attention of everyone in the locker room and D'Antoni is one of them. I think it works out well and instead of installing his system he opts to let them just play a free fast paced game and implementing certain ideas and sets along the way.

palmmute - Spurs at Lakers tonight.. let's do this This! If we go 3-0 with Bickerstaff we'll be .500!!! So much better then being 1-4. Our PG position is weak for this game though because Nash AND Blake are gonna be out. |

defense is still a question mark but I'm VERY excited to see a run & gun laker team once again. we'll see how it goes. |

Ah, then yeah I heard he'd be the coach starting on Friday but I'm not sure if he'll actually be at the game because of rehabbing the knee. They'll just implement his offense on Friday for sure. |

I don't think defense will be an issue for Dantoni, once Dwight is healthy the'll be fine. I wanted Phil, but Dantoni is definitely a giant upgrade from Mr. Potato head. At least Nash, Dwight, and Kobe (from team USA) are already familiar with his system also.... |

Not sure what goes on there. |

YES! The gasol 3 pointer for their last shot. . . . . . .Really? There were three opportunities for Pau to pass it. |
