Alvin Gentry and the Phoenix Suns have decided to part ways, which sort of makes sense | Ball Don't Lie - Yahoo! Sports
The Phoenix Suns and Alvin Gentry deciding to part ways isn’t a basketball crime of the highest order. Gentry is not a misunderstood genius, and the Suns aren’t a collection of rotation parts that may have enjoyed a shot at the playoffs. The move is just something that happens in the NBA. A respected head coach was given a rebuilding project without many high-end talents to work with while working on the last year of a contract, the coach probably had no interest in hanging around long enough to watch the team decline to offer him a contract once the season ended, and the Suns didn’t mind tossing a new interim coach into the mix to see how things would work in a season that is going straight to the lottery.
