    Hope booker realizes his shot at anything just went out the window. Throwing a coach that knows the level of defense it takes out the window when your team has fucking none, instead of getting rid of a clown acquistion Beal is the same as saying you don’t want to win. If Booker wants to be KG in MN then that’s fine but don’t pretend you want to compete.

      Firstly, Vogel was a fine defensive coach, but the offense was awful. Bud should be able to make a decent system for them on both sides of the court. And before you say Bud was lucky to have Giannis, remember Vogel only won with Lebron and AD.

      Secondly, how do you propose they get rid of beal? no one wants him and he has a no trade clause.

      And lastly it has been reported that Vogel completely lost the locker room. that’s most likely why he’s getting fired. Sure you can put some of that blame on the players, but it’s on the coach too. Getting buy in is a big part of being a head coach.

      At least coaches salaries are guaranteed, sucks to get fired no matter what but at least he gets paid all the same. Think he’s good enough he’ll find another role.

      I would hope that he could have foreseen this outcome before signing the deal. He accepted a difficult job knowing that he would likely be to blame if it did not work out. He got a lot of money and (I hope he) knew not to bother moving too much stuff to Phoenix.
