The competition for the new coach of the Suns is getting fierce, the Rockets assistant coach is eliminated, and the Lakers may be poached?

The four teams that reached the division final this year are not considered big traffic players, and among the teams that were eliminated, the most tragic one is probably the Suns. Because other teams at least made it to the playoffs, they also have some expectations for the future. The Suns did not make the playoffs, and they overdraw their future assets. Even this year's lottery was given to the Rockets for free.

So after the end of the season, the Suns immediately made drastic changes, such as firing the head coach again. During this long offseason, the Suns have a lot of time to inspect, and the competition for new coaches is getting stronger and stronger. Among them, Rockets assistant coach Reus Ive was eliminated and did not enter the eight final candidates. Of course, for the Rockets, they have avoided being poached, and the coaching staff lineup will not change much next season.

On the contrary, the Lakers may have been poached, with assistant coach Jordan Alt among them. He is very accomplished in studying game video. He used to be an assistant coach at the Nets and was later poached by the Lakers. If JJ Redick is the rookie coach, then the Lakers have spent a lot of effort in building the coaching staff. Whether in terms of overall number or popularity, they are considered top-notch in the entire league. However, all coaches want to be on the top, no one wants to be a supporting role all the time. The assistant coach is poached, which is normal in the NBA. If Jordan Ultra can be promoted, we should of course send our blessings.

It seems that the Suns prefer to choose a very qualified coach than the rookie coach, such as David Fitzdale, who is the Suns assistant coach. Compared with other candidates, David Fitzdell may have two advantages. One is the Suns assistant coach and knows the team better than others. If David Fitzdell takes over the Suns, he will not have to be familiar with the players for too long and can quickly establish his own system. In addition, David Fitzdale was the head coach of the Knicks and the Grizzlies, and has rich experience in coaching. He also won the championship twice with the Heat in his early years, which is even more convincing.

Another former NBA coach was James Borrego, who coached at the Charlotte Hornets, but the team's record was very bleak at the time. James Borrego was the assistant of the Spurs godfather Popovich, where he accumulated a lot of experience, but coaching alone lacked record support. Other coaches on the list include Sean Swinney, Johnny Bryant, Steve Hertzel, McAr Norry and Dave Bliss. Obviously, the final candidate for the new Suns coach will emerge from them.
