Thread: How far along into the season will it be before you give up on Gentry?

He is not a good coach. You can scream it into existence all you want. If we are even forced to play half court ball, we implode."

    I'm not arguing takes like this. I'm good.
    You don’t argue because you have nothing to argue and you are a pompous baboon like McNamara. If you disagree with something, fantastic. It’s a public board where people are allowed to share their opinions. Instead, you drop a stupid bomb with the Dantoni strawman and don’t have any point at all.

    Please, enlighten us. Why do you support Gentry. Stop being a self righteous wuss and tell us. I won’t judge. Not unless you pull another MM

    A bit of good news in what seems like a must win game tomorrow.

    But the 22-year-old was not listed on the injury report ahead of a Monday night matchup with the Brooklyn Nets.
    According to a report from ESPN's Andrew Lopez, Ingram was evaluated for a concussion but did not exhibit any symptoms.

    Do you disagree and think he should be fired immediately or wait until next summer?

    Did we wait to fire Dell Demps ? Something tells me Gentry is just riding on borrowed time.

    Find where that was posted on this forum.

    I'll wait!

    You're name calling. You've shown who you are. People are allowed to share their opinions but I'm a pompous baboon for sharing mine? Carry on child, I don't have time for your tantrums.

    Keep waiting or search on your own. I'm not doing leg work for you and I don't care to prove a point. People have praised Dantoni on this board. Gentry has gotten flack since before he even coached a game for this team.I see you lil MAGA.

    I'm not proving anything to an unintelligent child. Learn how not to name call. Mods where are you? This kid has insulted me twice with name calling.

    Alvin, we only give you flack cause you deserve it. What job allows an employee to be unsuccessful consistently and not get fired? The goal is to win and do it consistently, which you have not done. It’s that simple.

    So that probably did not happen on this forum. You deflected the question.

    I mean, to be fair to him, it's extremely plausible that someone has complimentd D'Antoni at some point on this forum that's not some super unbelievable thing that is just instantly doubtable.

    Personally, I think D'Antoni is a flawed coach that runs a system that is never going to win a championship, and I also think that he's been incredibly lucky with having talented personnel that fits his style (Nash/Stoudemire in Phoenix, Harden in Houston, for example).

    But I feel like if someone was praising D'Antoni, they would have the following as evidence for their praise being justified: D'Antoni has a career 55% Winning percentage, has 2 Coach of the Year awards, and has coached teams to at least 50 wins 9 times in 16 years (for comparison, Gentry has managed that once in 16 years as Head Coach).

    So if someone was praising D'Antoni, at least they'd be able to point out that D'Antoni has consistently coached winners for his career, at least in the regular season. Gentry does not have such a record behind him.

    Lmao! Exactly! D’Antoni is light years ahead of Gentry as a coach by actual accomplishments alone. I was going to post something similar to this if he was to ask me why I felt D’Antoni was a better coach, but he sidesteps the argument without stating facts to back up his love for Gentry.

    For the record, I never praised D’Antoni. I just asked if Alvin was a better coach. Which, it clearly doesn’t appear that way.

    Also worth noting Gentry was an assistant for D’Antoni in PHX or was it the other way around?

    Gentry was indeed an assistant for the famous 7 seconds or less Suns. That single season with more than 50 wins as Head Coach that I mentioned earlier was his first season as the Head Coach of the Suns after D'Antoni left.

    You are an arrogant little child. You haven’t even demonstrated your point yet you make condescending and passive aggressive remarks. Please, explain why you believe Gentry is the guy. You haven’t even elaborated yet. Until you do, you deserve everything you have gotten.

    And I am always willing to let bygones be bygones. So please, just be an adult and actually say something.

    Funny. I’d argue you’re unintelligent because you haven’t even made an argument for Gentry. I’m perfectly willing to listen, but you continue to be a coward.

    You're wasting your time if you think I'm going to provide you with an explanation after you insulted me.

    Alvin flat out sucks!!! No other way to say it. This team comes out flat every game without any direction or sense of urgency. 1-6

    Someone is going to come on here and tell you that we will be better when Zion gets back, and it’s true (we will), but Gentry isn’t exactly working with chopped liver right now.
