In 2008, Knicks hire D'Antoni hoping he's the kind of coach that LBJ wants to play for. Then the Lakers hire D'Antoni hoping Dwight wants to play in a system that doesn't cater to bigs. AWESOME.

The hope in hiring D'Antoni was that he's smart enough at offense to figure out how to use Kobe and Dwight properly. I didn't think he would be completely blind sighted just because Nash is on the team too.

Those of you that say Dwight is overrated make me laugh. Imagine what our defense would be like without him. We would have Pau guarding the paint. I'm not even going to discuss Bynum because every time he would jump I would say a prayer.

Not overrated - The guy just doesn't get the ball in good spots. Look at the Bucks game where he was being fed in good positions to score, and he took advantage of it.
