It's a Done Deal

It's official! The Suns have hired Jay Humphries to fill the assistant coach position vacated by Marc Ivaroni. What? Oh, you thought this post was going to be about Kevin Garnett, didn't you? Well, no matter how happy I might be to see The Big Ticket go somewhere out of the western conference altogether if he can't join the Suns, I'm sure I could never outdo Bill Simmons on the subject, so I won't even try. So congratulations to the Celtics for managing to pull off what the Suns couldn't (or wouldn't for the sake of their own sanity), and congratulations to Jay Humphries too. 'Night, all.

I'd actually been wondering about this ...

I'd almost posted a question about the vacant coaching position. I remember reading several weeks ago that Humphries was expected to be added to the staff because he was with the Summer League squad, but when there hadn't been any news for a while, I was starting to think they weren't going to hire him after all.

Anyway, congratulations to him, and I hope he does a good jobs with the Suns.
