Stan is a decent interview. He sounds like he knows what he is talking about and can probably connect with with management better than he can with players. He definitely wasn’t our first option. Considering Doc or Lue didn’t want to come here, I would have gone after a young hungry up and comer, vs a retread.

Look, I'm not a huge stan apologists, I have a lot of issues with his offense not having an answer to a simple zone d, all the bad decision making, but a lot of this shite is on the players/Griff too, maybe even more so than Stan:

The Knicks game when he told them to foul and Eric didn't.

Hayes early in the season couldn't switch on defense. He looked awful.

BI is still terrible on defense

Zion not playing well on defense.

Griffin traded for Adams

The general lack of effort and bad decision making by Eric and Lonzo

JJ falling apart/Griff not trading him when he should have

Losing Josh Hart during the most pivotal part of the season

Not playing Kira and NAW enough is on Stan(a lot of that is JJ being terrible though)

Stan gets credit for point Zion, and some of his sets make sense unlike Gentryball, but we don't have 3 guys in this league that can hit 3s, which I feel like you have to have, and Griff gave him no league ready point guard.

It's a total failure on the front office if two of NAW Kira and Hayes and Naji don't turn into good starters/fringe all stars. And we still have 2 years before that happens.

I think Charles Lee would have made a great head coach for this young team. He’s young and can relate to the players and by all accounts he’s a great teacher too on the Bucks staff. Darvin Ham is another up and comer on that Bucks staff that I wouldn’t mind over 61 year old SVG. Just when I thought Griff was a good hire to change the franchise and then he goes and screws things up by hiring his buddy who anyone with eyes can see our players won’t relate to. I was never a fan of Gentry but I don’t see SVG as an upgrade to even him.
