On July 28, the Nets announced that Mike D’Antoni would be stepping down from his role as assistant and consigliere to head coach Steve Nash. In the accompanying statement, Nash paid a fitting tribute to his mentor who revolutionized offensive basketball and helped walk him through his first-ever coaching assignment on the bench at any level last season.
I knew this will be an article I'd have to make time to sit down and read. I am correct.
Steve! Here's my question regarding your quote: "...it was fairly common for the Nets to go down something like 18-5 before their talent usually allowed them to catch up."
Is Steve Nash's lack of a real offense the issue last season, which could be expected due to the trade, lack of practice time, etc, OR... poor defensive philosophy?
