If people think D’Antoni is too old to coach at 72 well Popovich is 74 and is still coaching.
D’Antoni has turned around a lot of franchises Suns in the 2000s leading them to 4 consecutive playoff appearances with 2 WCFs. He also lead the Rockets to 4 consecutive playoff appearances and was 1 win away from the Finals.
He hasn’t coached since getting fired from the Rockets in 2020 and it seems like no team is pursuing him as a coach anymore.
Pop is the president of basketball operations. He will have a job until either he decides he’s done, or the owner fires him, and the owner ain’t firing him any time soon.
