Devin Booker, Suns players make case for Jordan Ott as Coach of the Year | Sporting News Canada
Ott has led Phoenix to a resurgent season.
we ott to be grateful - we don't always win but we're always in it at the end - is there a impressive losses category - has anybody ever checked this guy's iq - is there a basketball iq test - how does he get everybody so motivated and focused during timeotts - if i were a rich man with more time on my hands i would pay the money for the seats behind the bench just to listen - i would enjoy that as much as the games

My daughter and I were just talking about how cool it’d be to sit right next to their bench. She looked into it and said it’s like $3k per ticket. Definitely would be cool to do once.
And agreed, amazing what a difference Ott makes. Just last night I was telling my wife how we don’t allow teams to go on big runs against us. Ott shuts them down fast! It’s so nice having a coach that can adjust!
Hopefully he is our head coach for more than a year. Lol

We've been burning through them. That's a fact.

No doubt that Ott has proven to be a good (maybe darn near excellent) coach. On paper, this is as ragtag a roster as the Suns have had since Bookers' early years and Ott has molded them into a cohesive and very formidable team that seems likely to only get better as the season goes on.

We agree, on paper the Suns shouldn't be here but they play hard every night. It makes one think what Ott could do with a loaded roster, especially with a starting caliber power forward.
thank you jordan ott - best way to utilize jalen's talents

when he returns... is he out already again?!
it's a old ass tweet
We play Atlanta now to end the road trip. Miami was the first team we faced on this East coast swing.
Yeah, not quite sure why you reposted. Ott in fact did have him come off the bench in his first game back.

I hope this guy coaches here a real long time
Great Post - I will admit I was a skeptic, purely from the stand point of the MSU ties. TEAM basketball is so much more entertaining than watching entitled "Max" players play horse with themselves and cry to have refs bail them out. Luka is good but even fans have to tire of his crying. then compound that with the clown LaBronda and watching the less than zero basketball IQ of DA.... hilarious. Sad part is, I think JJ Redick is probably a really good coach. His mistake was taking on the LA Drama Queens

Just strategically, he has them playing defense to their strengths, smaller team so get steals and crowd the three point line. On offense, use the shooters we have to spread the floor. Pretty easy in concept. So why haven't other coaches been able to do it? IDK. We found one that can. I hope he is a long term coach, like two to three decades. LOL.
We don't ask for much. Just the next Popovich is all.

I am wondering since his issues started at the beginning of the season, if it was a mistake in training. Back in the day, the trainers I had said a lot of the hamstring injuries were caused by having too strong of quadriceps muscles in relation to the hamstrings. Perhaps in gearing up for a new team to play on, he trained too hard, and built his quads up too much? It's just weird he's been mostly healthy up until now.
dear diary,
ott gets asked a lot why the suns are playing so well and why they play so hard - he usually answers with how the team holds eachother accountable then names drops book for leading by example
now the potential coach of the year has his biggest challenge - not only no book but no jalen - no sugar and no substitute sweetner
1-4 without book - team fell apart last night when book limped off but that was also after the team watched jalen limp off - and they still played to the end - now they'll have time to prepare for not having them
and our coaching staff is nuts - not a bunch of retired players but a bunch of nerds in thick framed glasses - if anybody's up for this task it's the öttley crew - our bench already excels - most have been starters at some point - it'll be interesting
