they will improve to some extent and a roster that could have been nightmare on D will never give defense a second thought. Mike D'Antoni is the dictionary definition of a good coach. Only good... he is Flip Saunders 2.0 (RIP).

He is a transition coach... he can take a poor team and make it okay, or take an okay team and make it good. His style won't bring any team (barring some sort of windfall of greatness like Phil Jackson was able to find, twice) to the promise-land.
