Mike D'Antoni Fired?




According To SI,

Mike D'Antoni, the NBA's Coach of the Year for the 2004-05 season and the man credited with reinvigorating fast-break basketball in a league gone stale, will not be back to coach the Phoenix Suns for the 2008-09 season, SI.com has learned.

One landing spot for him would seem to be Chicago, where general manager John Paxson has not yet replaced Jim Boylan, who himself replaced Scott Skiles (now in charge in Milwaukee). The Bulls underachieved this season under both coaches but would seem to have the kind of offensive nucleus (Ben Gordon, Luol Deng, Kirk Hinrich, Andres Nocioni) with which D'Antoni could build.


I agree with SI. If D'Antoni comes to Chicago he will make Tyrus Thomas a man child. He will let all the players just chuck. They would be fun to watch. The only thing they would need is a legit PG. Stay Tuned.......
