Last summer, the Suns were in turmoil, and they underwent a massive roster change in order to realize their ambition of "revenge for the whole league". This series of changes was first reflected in the head coach position, Monty was fired, and former Lakers championship coach Vogel was hired as the new coach, and new tactical concepts and expectations were instilled in the team. At the same time, the team also made personnel changes and traded Paul to the Wizards. They formed a new Big Three consisting of Beal, Durant, and Booker. At the same time, Ayton was also traded to the Trail Blazers, giving the team the opportunity to become a blue-collar center. These changes have fans full of anticipation, hoping that the Suns can soar to the top in the new season and challenge for the championship.
Surprisingly, however, the Suns didn't perform as well as expected. During the regular season, the team struggled with the distribution of possession among the Big Three, and despite 82 games, Vogel failed to build a solid core rotation. And after the start of the playoffs, the Suns looked ineffective against the Timberwolves. Although the Suns won comfortably against the Timberwolves in the first round, the Timberwolves' rapid improvement in the playoff arena caught the Suns off guard. Vogel's tactical failure, combined with the inconsistency of individual performances, ultimately led to a dismal sweep for the Suns in the playoffs.
The result of the loss was not the most painful, but even more shocking was that the Suns' championship squad that had been assembled at all costs suffered a defeat in the first round. Suns management is also aware of the seriousness of the problem, and they blame Vogel and his coaching staff for the championship failure. Jones, the team's general manager, did not hesitate to make the decision to sack Vogel in order to achieve the team's championship goal.
After Vogel got out of class, the Suns began recruiting for a new coach. Former Bucks championship coach Budenholzer has become the frontrunner for the Suns' new coach. While the two sides have begun negotiations, in the meantime, the Lakers have also shown interest in Budenholzer. For the Suns and Lakers, choosing the right head coach is crucial to the future development of the team. In this decision-making process, Suns all-time star Nash became one of the high-profile candidates, and his partnership with Durant with the Nets is highly anticipated.
The Suns' firing and recruitment of a new coach is not just a response to failure, it is not just a hope for the future, but a step that the team must take. They will need to change and realign their strategy and lineup to achieve their goal of winning the title. Choosing the right head coach will be the first step for the Suns to reach a new starting point. Whether it's Budenholzer or Nash, they will carry the fans' expectations and trust in the Suns and lead the team to new glory.
