Luka need to step back from the bong...

The only reason we lost any of those games against the Spurs was sh*ty refereeing (see ESPN for the prime suspect in Game 3) and very dirty play by certain Spurs players (search YouTube for super-slo-mo replays if you have any doubts)...

He notoriously runs a seven man rotation, and wears players down. When appointed GM for the 2006-2007 season, inflated the team's payroll by signing Boris Diaw to a ridiculous 5 yr 45 mil dollar contract, subsequently Diaw had a sub-par season, and woefully underperformed in the playoffs. He also condoned signing Marcus Banks to a 5 yr 21 mil dollar deal, and did not even play Banks at all during the regular season or the playoffs. Did not add anyone meaningful during the 2006 offseason, and may have ultimately short-changed the Suns in their playoff series against the Spurs. May be on the hot seat with new GM Steve Kerr in charge, Sarver will be taking advice from Kerr who has a much better idea of how to properly staff a basketball team.

Outstanding coach... coaches the way NBA style ball should be played. Basketball is a game of skill and finesse not the all too often seen "football" without the pads.

Couldn't seem to inspire his team in the conference finals. We'll see if he can his team at as high a level in his second season--hasn't proven anything yet.

Give D'Antoni some credit will ya! Should be Coach of the Year candidate. He's led them to the best record in the league. With the rate they're going, his Suns team might be better than the 1992-93 version.

OK he might not be the best coach, but my Suns currently have the best record in the league and they weren't expected to be anywhere close to that.
