The NBA playoffs are in their second round, and for the Suns, they will undoubtedly lose this season. Whether it's outside of the Suns' up-and-down record in the regular season or being swept by the Timberwolves in the regular season. This result is a big discount to the Suns' expectations for the season, and the Suns are in dire need of internal adjustments! And just yesterday the Suns quickly made a decision to deal with the team's head coach, the former Lakers head coach Vogel who only coached one was fired, and today the team's new head coach Budenholzer was officially announced.
Budenholzer is a former championship coach of the Bucks and a mentor to former Lakers head coach Darvin Ham. As a championship coach, Budenholzer has a lot of coaching ability and has performed well, and his addition will have an impact on the Suns. Notably, this is the third head coach the Suns have traded in the past three seasons, and it is also Durant's third season with the Suns. The first two head coaches, Monty, and Vogel, were fired by the Suns after only one season, which may have an indirect relationship with the arrival of Durant.
In fact, since the end of the 2015-2016 season, Durant officially announced that he joined the Warriors, this decision has had a huge negative impact on Durant at a large level, although Durant has won two career championships and Finals MVP here, but the outside world still does not approve of Durant's joining the Warriors, and joining the team that beat him, which is unacceptable to many fans. And when Warrior Green uttered the famous formula: "We've won the championship before you come." completely put Durant into the abyss.
So after four years with the Warriors, Durant left the team and came to the Nets to form the Big Three, but the record is still poor. During his years with the Nets, there were many conflicts within the Nets, and then Irving left, Harden joined the 76ers, and Durant joined the Suns, causing the former Big Three to go their separate ways. In the past few years of joining, the Nets coach has been constantly changing, in the three years that Durant has joined, the Nets have changed three coaches are Atkinson, Nash, and Vaughn, and after joining the Suns, the Suns have successively replaced meritorious coaches Monty, Vogel, plus the incoming Budenholzer, the Suns have changed six head coaches in the past six years.
Although Durant is not directly involved in the team's selection of coaches, he is the team's top name, and the team's management will favor his selection. It is worth noting that in the past few years, the Lakers have also had a storm of changing coaches, the core of the team James joined the Lakers for six seasons and changed three head coaches, and some fans threw the black pot of the Lakers coach change turmoil to James, thinking that James was the initiator of the change of coach, but now Durant has changed six coaches in six years, I don't know what others think. But this is the biggest black cauldron in the NBA, and obviously James doesn't need to carry it anymore.
But back to the topic, Durant has been away from the Warriors for several years and has changed two super teams, but why hasn't he proven his ability yet? Could it be that without the Warriors, Durant really can't win the championship again? On the other hand, the Warriors, even if Durant leaves the Warriors, the Warriors can win the championship! Maybe Green's words have come true again, leaving the Warriors Durant will never win a championship again. What do you think about this?
