Anyone remember those news headlines?
ok then.
LOL you're either not knowledeable about basketball or else you're just a homer. D'Antoni's not just doing one or two things wrong... He's monumentally messing this squad up and is basically NOT coaching the team. Here's a list of some of Antoni's problems:
1. He only runs two plays on offense all game (Pick & Roll & ISO to Melo/Stat).
2. He never calls a timeout when our opponents go on a run until it's way too late.
3. He doesn't pull out/lecture guys when they stop playing D.
4. He doesn't make in-game adjustments on either side of the ball.
5. He never works the refs... ever.
6. He doesn't call plays out of the huddle (It shows when guys like Amare are shooting last second shots from 3 like last night).
7. He totally jacks up the rotation and playing minutes. When we need to go big he goes small... Actually he NEVER goes big.
8. He NEVER has us crash the boards on either side of the ball and he doesn't say anything when our guys aren't getting back. How do we not rebound and not get back? Only Antoni could coach a team into that.
I could go on all day... Our problems are NOT because our guys still need time to gel. All of our team's problems are COACHING problems. It's obvious by watching him try to coach that he has no clue how to manage this team. Damn Steve Nash made this guy a ton of money, it's sick. Fire D'Antoni NOW!!!
Nice assessment of D'Antoni's non-coaching. I do agree with Toons that it's a little early calling for the D'Antoni's head, the team has so much talent they can turn this around despite D'Antoni but I think Dolan will have him on a short leash. Dolan didn't spend all that money on Stat, Melo and Chandler and acquire vets like Bibby and Biddy to build for the future, this is a win now team.LOL you're either not knowledeable about basketball or else you're just a homer.
