re: Gentry vs Gundy

Neither, Van Gundy’s hiring has felt like a stop gap hire from day one imo.

The other names we were hearing most often were Ty Lue and Jason Kidd, if memory serves. SVG had a reputation for constructing good defenses, we desperately needed defense. It hasn’t worked out very well, but I kind of understand the thinking.

Zion, BI, Jaxson and NAW have shown defensive improvement, but the team as a whole still can’t stop anyone consistently. Tough to say whether or not the individual improvements have anything to do with Stan.

I would have preferred Chris Finch at the time, but I also wouldn’t have fired Monty after he showed continual improvement in a very bad situation. First year notwithstanding
