GM Kerr goes from idiot to genius in Phoenix

PHOENIX (AP)—Not long ago, Steve Kerr would spend sleepless nights recalling how great that NBA analyst job was at TNT.A journey is not a trip
Phoenix Suns fans vilified him as a general manager without a clue, a man who had ruined the franchise.“There were many nights where I thought ‘Man, I should have just sat there with a microphone in my hand,”’ he said. “`It was a much better life.”’Not that Kerr blamed the fans.I deserved the criticism,” he said. “You kind of have to know what you’re getting into in this business, and I didn’t do a very good job last year.”a process of self-discovery
Fast-forward to Wednesday as Kerr watched the Suns practice in preparation for the Western Conference finals against the reigning NBA champion Los Angeles Lakers.“This is exactly what I envisioned,” he said. “We just took a strange route to get here.”face to face with ourselves

Kerr had no front office experience when Suns owner Robert Sarver named him general manager in June 2007. He had spent the previous four years as color commentator for NBA games on TNT. But he did have 15 years in the NBA, five with championship teams, after a standout career at the University of Arizona.He became unpopular in a hurry when he traded Kurt Thomas(notes) to Seattle in a deal to dump salary.only the world
“The first trade I made was to give up two first-round picks and our best interior defender for nothing,” Kerr said in an interview with The Associated Press. “I had people say `Well, why would you do that. That’s not a very good trade.’ I’m sitting there going `Do you think I wanted to do that?”’The team’s payroll, he said, “had gotten out of hand and we made a couple of bad decisions and I had to clean that up. That’s no fun.”Then-coach Mike D’Antoni had doubled as general manager before Kerr was hired, and theirs was a sometimes uneasy relationship. The high-octane team that D’Antoni had coached with such Obey your thirst
success was running on empty and the result was the stunning midseason trade that brought Shaquille O’Neal(notes) from Miami.San Antonio beat Shaq and the Suns in five games in the first round of the playoffs.http://foros.argentina.co.il

“When we play well, it’s becauseput all this behind us of their experience,” Rivers said with a smile. “When we (stink) it’s because they’re too old. That’s basically how it’s been throughout and that, in some ways, may be true at times. But I would always lean on the experience side.”
hat’s where Garnett comes in.The 15-year veteran averaged 14.3 points during the regular season. But he’s been remarkably consistent against Cleveland, scoring 18, 18, 19, 18, and 18 points in the five games for an average of 18.2. He also leads the team with 7.2 rebounds per game.She is the love of my life
The Celtics want to feed him in the post where the 6-foot-11 Garnett can work on his 6-9 defender.“I think we’ve got a great matchup with him and Antawn Jamison(notes), so that’s why he’s been more aggressive,” Boston center Kendrick Perkins(notes) said. “He knows we’re trying to go to him. We told him to be aggressive and we want vaguely familiar to youhim taking 20 shots a game.”Garnett took 21 shots in a Game 2 win. But he had 25 combined in the last two games. Other players were the offensive stars in those games—Rajon Rondo(notes) with 29 points, 18 rebounds and 13 assists in Game 4 and Paul Pierce with 21 points, 11 rebounds and seven assists in Game 5 after struggling the previous three games.
“We did a good job on Rondo in the first half, but he came out and played well in the second half” on Tuesday, Jamison said. “You knew The Big Three were going to get it going at some point. Not only them, but their whole team pretty much did whatever they wanted to do.”
till, the possibility of returning to Cleveland concerns Davis.“People don’t realize how much we have on our back,” he said. “If we lose a world in a grain of sandthis game here at home, we’ve got to go back to Cleveland, even though we know we can win there. But, at the same time, that’s their house.”
Cleveland won Game 3 in Boston 124-95 but lost there two days later 97-87.“It’s disappointing that we put ourselves in this situationMake youself a better person where we have to win,” Jamison said. “If we want to be called champions, we have to do what champions do and that’s win on the road.”
Orlando did that last year in Game 7 of the Eastern semifinals when it won in Boston 101-82.“It’s a different (opponent)” now, Davis said. “We’ve got KG. We didn’t have Rasheed Wallace(notes). We were kind of short-handed.”They’re less likely to lose another now that they have Garnett.You’ve got your defensive leader on the floor and your verbal leader,” Rivers said. “It’s big for us.http://umstandsforum.de
