His and the teams main issue this year has been turnovers and no cohesiveness on defense. I am not a fan of Jim Buss and how he's run things the last couple of years, but I'm hoping they can fix their mistake of hiring Brown in the first place and hire Brian Shaw who was being groomed by Jackson. I'd also like Jerry Sloan or Mike Dantoni if they don't go with bringing Phil back.

Man I wanted Washington to push hard for Jerry Sloan.
