ESPN bottom line just reported....


Sources from both the Suns and the Bulls have reported that Mike Dantoni will fill the Bulls vacant coaching position.

That is pretty much what it said verbatim! So I guess he is gone?

I figured it would be Chicago. Who in their right mind would coach that nightmare knows as the Knicks??

jeff van gundy only knows how to coach one way and that is slow down grind it out that he played with the knicks and rockets. jvg would be a the worst thing this team could do. you could honestly count on suns not making the playoffs and still not having a lottery pick because we traded it to seattle.

The Bulls are the best fit for D'Antoni. They have a lot of players I've wanted to see in a Suns uniform. If the Bulls sign D'Antoni, they will be one exciting team. I've never figured out why this team so under achieved.

I am as giddy as a school girl about this news. This team will be fun and Kirk may have a coach that will have him play like a point gaurd.

Jeff has turned down to even interview with any team. I think he is done coaching for awhile.

A slow grind it out game with Amare and Nash would be really good for us.

Remember the Alamo! The Spurs outran the Suns for crying out loud.

The slower more deliberate pace helps the Suns IMO. Without a quality backup PG and with Shaq under contract for at least 2 more years a slower pace has to be used.

Plus with Boris likely starting at the 3, the Suns really won't have any more runners in their starting lineup.
