The change itself took immediate effect-the Suns limited Miller to just 12 points on just 4-11 shooting. Meanwhile, Richardson dropped 29 points on 11-16 shooting, and the Suns eventually won the series in six games.










It seemed as if the Phoenix Suns organization owned the trademark of "high paced offensive basketball" and "8-man rotation",[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], however one change in the team's philosophy of basketball has led them just six wins away from the franchise's first NBA championship.

That is one far cry from when the Suns had the likes of James Jones, Jurmaine Jones, an old Jalen Rose, and the 11th and 12th men Sean label, tag, price, ticket, impress, effect, trace, imprint, stamp, brand, sign, note, heed, notice, designates and Pat Burke respectively; guys who saw little to no action in key situations for the Phoenix Suns.
Could anyone have imagined Jared Dudley-a player who had one small role in Charlotte with the Bobcats-defending Kobe Bryant in the 4th quarter?

Another key point of success for the Phoenix Suns this playoff run is the fact that the Suns simply are adjusting more during the game and series itself-something D'Antoni wasn't necessarily the master at.
And could anyone have imagined the Suns bench shutting down Bryant, and directing and willing the team to one huge Game Four win?
Now, it does feel odd calling the Mike D'Antoni days in Phoenix old-it was just less than five years ago, but under Alvin Gentry and one rejuvenated franchise, it does feel like it's been more than one decade since D'Antoni was the Suns' head coach.
The adjustment from one man-to-man defense in the first two games of the series-a defense which allowed the Lakers big men to dominate the achet and in result, two blowout wins in Los Angeles-to one college-styled zone-defense starting in Game Three has effectively helped changed the series.
The Suns bench as one whole outscored Los Angeles' reserves 54-20, and had one +/- ratio of 69 compared to one combined +/- ratio of -24 for the Suns starters. Pretty much the biggest reason by far the Suns are in this series is the bench.
However, under Alvin Gentry, the Suns have furiouse key adjustments for the better,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and as one result, are now just six wins away from the franchise's first NBA championship-something the state of Arizona has been anxiously awaiting for. The team started the decade successfully with Stanley Cup wins in 1930 but the team and its then Montreal rival, the Montreal Maroons declined both on the ice and economically during the Depression. Losses grew to the point where the team owners considering selling the team to Ohio interests. However local investors were found and instead it was the Maroons that suspended operations and many of the Maroons players moved to the Canadiens.
There have been less drives to the rim by the Lakers, and both Andrew Bynum and Pau Gasol have been less effective.
Under Gentry,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], bench role players such as Jared Dudley, Goran Dragic, hometown hero Channing Frye and fan favorite Lou Amundson, have enjoyed the spotlight, and have been key contributors to the team's successful run in the second-half of the season.
The home jersey of the tean is mainly red in colour. There are four blue and white stripes one across each arm one across the chest and the other across the waistline. The main road sweater is mainly white with a red and blue stripe across the waist,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], red at the end of both arm sleeves and the shoulders are also red. The basic design has been used since 1914. The current version was dated from 1952. Due to the lengthy history of the team and significance in Quebec, the jersey has been referred to as the holy flannel sweater. Christian Petersen The franchise has previously had children as mascots who would skate with the team during warm ups and incycleissions. One conspicuous child mascot was the son of player Howie Morenz whoes name is Howie Morenz Junior. Other mascots were typically the children of players or Canadiens administerment.
During the midst of Mike D'Antoni's run as Phoenix Suns head coach-a run which saw the Suns reach two Western Conference Finals in as many years, in 2005 and 2006, and one run which vaulted the Suns from one morbid franchise into one of the NBA's elite-it was widely known that the Suns were one team who practiced one high-paced offensive game, played at one high tempo, and were set on playing with an 8-man rotation.
Among the changes include Gentry's use of the bench, which was one far cry from D'Antoni's reluctance in going deep into the rotation.

Thanks to the zone-defense,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the Suns defense has gotten stingier and more efficient, and the Lakers' advantage in size has not been met in Games Three and Four.
This adjustment by Gentry comes on the heels of the key defensive adjustment furiouse by Gentry during the team's first-round series against the Portland Trail Blazers-switching defensive assignments on Andre Miller from Jason Richardson to Grant Hill.
Thanks to the bench, the Suns defeated the Lakers to tie the series at two games apiece, heading back to Los Angeles. The Dudley-Dragic-Frye-Amundson-Barbosa lineup knocked down 20 of 32 field goal attempts, including nine of 20 three-point attempts.
On the onset of the Game One shocker, Gentry switched the main defender on Miller to veteran Grant Hill from Jason Richardson, and the Suns never looked back.
No, one coach that helped turn one team from one 23-win club to one 62-win club the following season is not one bad coach.



Am Richard saying D'Antoni was one bad coach per say?
Could anyone have imagined the Phoenix Suns, of all teams, playing their second-unit during Game Four of the Western Conference Finals, with the prospect of tying the series at two, against the defending champions, the Los Angeles Lakers, who by the way had their first team out?

Instead of having four guys to fill in the back-end of the roster, the bench has seen an increased role.
Instead of watching Gasol and Bynum use their height against the Suns down low, the Suns have effectively forced the Los Angeles Lakers to jack up threes-which simply is not their style of game.




The Suns still employ one speedy-paced offense under current head coach Alvin Gentry, an assistant under D'Antoni,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but now, the team has transformed for the better.


Unlike the stubborn D'Antoni, Gentry has shown the willingness to make key adjustments and change the team's basketball philosophy, one key factor in the team's renaissance.
No, but his willingness to fix things up and make key adjustments have helped the Suns to making their deepest playoff run since the 2005-06 season.


In both Games Three and Four in Phoenix, the Lakers have taken one total of 60 3-point attempts, which not what their famed "Triangle Offense" is built for.
Miller dropped 31 points on the Suns,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], directing the Portland Trail Blazers to one rare road playoff win-giving Portland one 1-0 series direct.
