If he would have entertained a S&T with the Bulls
You sure about that?
If F500 could let Phil use his "hot tub time machine", I bet we'd do real well!

This
I hate coaches/organizations that play to a certain system and refuse to adjust to the personal.
Players will go where the money is at...and although I agree that it takes a special kind of person to make it in NYC (a lot of fickle fans and horrible sports writers) I think what will scare players more is the triangle offense.
We are going to have a draft pick and get a player with loads of "potential"...no worries there....free agency is where Phil needs to hit a home run....
The Triangle is EXTREMELY flexible as Phil has used it with different rosters over the years. Phil just needs to find the right players. Guys with IQ n good overall skills. Atlanta is a perfect example of how u can win with good talent even without the big names.

Atlanta has a great coach who learned from the best and like the Pistons, though they are not stars, they are many really good players.

Yes he did..with players named M.Jordan, S.Pippen, T.Kukoc, S.O'neal, K.Bryant & P.Gasol.
You see a player of that caliber in this coming free agency class?....and what does M. Budenholzer have to do with this? Is he running the triangle off. in Atlanta?

Atlanta won't win the championship though until they add a legit star. That said they are still a very good team because they can space the floor on offense as well as help defend/Pick and roll/post defend well.

Well wouldn't the hope be that the guy we draft can become on the caliber of one of these players?

They basically do the same things that MDA was doing with the Suns. They have less calibre stars players but better depth.
