The Suns are interested in the Rockets former coach? Or hire him to join as the chief assistant coach

This year's offseason, it is obvious that the Phoenix Suns are facing a demolition and reconstruction - after all, this team ranks 11th in the Western Conference this season, but pays the most luxury tax in the NBA, and also has the so-called "big three" Durant, Bill and Booker. On paper, the Suns' overall strength is not weak, and compared with some mid- and upper-level teams, they obviously have huge advantages in lineup strength.

Even if you cannot win the championship, entering the playoffs should be easy, but this season, the Suns can be said to have opened high and closed low: at the beginning of the season, the team did have good performance and record, but as they enter the middle and late stages of the season, the Suns have experienced more and more trouble. In addition to Bradley Beal's stop and stop due to injury, the Suns lack an inside starting center and outside playback, which has always been their shortcomings. What's more, the Suns' second team is relatively weak. In the end, although there are three star players in the team, they still regretfully missed the playoffs.

Now the Suns have decided to rebuild. The first goal of the reconstruction is to trade Durant in exchange for several first-round draft picks or young players. The Rockets have always been the main trading target of the Suns. It is said that the Suns have taken the initiative to ask the Rockets whether they are interested in Durant - if the Rockets are willing to return the Suns draft pick in their hands, then Durant will most likely join the Rockets. But the Rockets are not tempted now because the 36-year-old Durant is too old for the Rockets' young lineup, so the two sides are in a tug-of-war.

At present, the Suns have completed the change of coaches. After Budenholzer was fired, the Suns chose a young coach. After all, the main goal of the Suns next season is to play badly and lose more games, so finding a coach with inexperienced will have excellent results in playing badly - just like the Rockets back then, Silas coached the Rockets for three years, and the teams are basically at the bottom of the league. This is why the Rockets won the high pick for three consecutive years, and selected star players such as Jabbarri Smith, Jaylen Green, and Amen Thompson.

Now according to reports, the Suns may choose someone with head coaching experience as the team's chief assistant coach, and former Rockets coach Silas is within the Suns' investigation. In addition, former Rockets forward Carroll may also join the Suns' assistant coach team, because at the Nets, Carroll and current Suns' new head coach Jordan Ultra, have cooperated with the two, and the relationship is good, so Carroll is also expected to become a member of Ultra's coaching team.

It can be said that the Suns did "have chosen the wrong person". Rebuilding next season is to play badly and lose more games. Silas has rich experience in this area. Without him, there would be no three years when the Rockets were in a bad position, nor would the Rockets have risen again and taken off again.

In terms of bad performance, Stephen Silas, known as the "bad artifact", is indeed unmatched in the league. Although he may have just joined as an assistant coach of the Suns, the Suns management does know what he should do next.
