Well Curry is not Nash, D'Antoni needs a pass-first PG. Curry can pass, but hes still not the ideal PG for D'Antoni's system.

I think this would be a perfect fit for MDAT. A run and gun system. No defense. This would be an ideal fit for him.

Re: How good of a fit would Mike D'Antoni be for GSW?
a post i made in another thread
"dubs fans, do you think mike D would be a good ASSISTANT coach for you guys? obvioulsy, i wouldnt want to curse any team by having his as your head coach, but if he was willing to be an assistant/ associate head coach, how would you guys like that? your team is PERFECT for his offense. and then a coach like JVG would seem fitting."
so i agree with OP to an extent. i dont see Mike D landing a head coaching gig anytime soon. but if he had that brian shaw title when he was on the pacers, "associate head coach" then he might come when the beckon.

D'antoni doesn't have the respect to be a head coach. He's also too offensive minded. Maybe if you pair him up with a defensive minded asst coach...but I still think he lost a LOT of respect from his Laker stint.

i think MDA can possibly resurrect his coaching career here after two horrible jobs in NY and LA
i know this sounds crazy but what if MDA head coached and Mike Brown was the defensive assistant coach?

How many games did Jeremy Lin play for MDA? We are talking about an entire season, not just a stretch of 10 games in which a scrub player transforms into superstar since nobody knew or prepare for him.

also, what worked for mark jackson and the warriors, is that he got them to buy into his team defense philosophies. it was only then that we saw the W's consistently coming in the dubs. Dantoni's defensive philosophy is to out score the other team. thats going to be a huge detrimental difference

whoever picks up this team is gonna look good because of the groundwork that Jackson put in...Front office must have just not liked Jackson because he was doing a fine job.

Honestly? I don't think D'Antoni is THAT bad. He's just an average coach. Not terrible, but not great. The Knicks were and still are garbage and the Lakers were obviously terrible this year. I kind of want to see him coach a really talented team again, just to see what happens.

Would be unfair. Curry would probably average close to 35-40 a game.

D'Antoni? So they get into the playoffs and manage to get stomped in the first round because they'll have to put up 130 points a game due to lack of defense?
GS was the 3rd best defense in the league. Mark Jackson made them a defense first team that had lights out shooters. It was the "Spurs recipe" for success and I think with better interior defense they could have taken it to the next step.
Terrible move by GS.
