re: Gentry vs Gundy

Monty was a good, young ascending coach and an even better person. We had a young team and they were improving every year. Also, Monty was top 2 in points per possession in ATO’s in that last season. I don’t think that’s a trait of a bottom 3 coach.

Dell built a roster of basically 6 usable players with 3 of them being injury riddled combo guards. I think Monty was doing well considering his personnel.

Monty basically got fired because he got swept by an all time great team in the first rd of the playoffs. 3 of the 4 games, we actually had a chance to win, but the Warriors had already taken their lumps and had their growing pains in the playoffs and it was our turn to take ours.

Under Monty, we played a controlled, disciplined style of ball that limited turnovers and focused on defense. It was an equation that actually was working despite 4 of our top 6 players being defensive turnstiles.
