When the Phoenix Suns fired Igor Kokoskov, it wasn’t a shock, but it still didn’t make fans happy.
And he was not given a fair shot to coach with his young and potentially still great nucleus.
But with a record like the one that he had (19-63), placing the Phoenix Suns in last place in the Western Conference and the second worst regular season record in franchise history, was there any chance he could’ve gotten over the hump?
Possibly – even though he let Devin Booker continue to play for his quest of high scoring games, potentially at the detriment of the team (which may not have sat right with the front office).
