Alvin Gentry was inserted as the interim coach last season and he earned the full time gig by going 18-13 (58.1%) the rest of the season. Gentry likes the run and gun style which plays to the strength of the roster the Suns have. Gentry still has a lot to prove as he has a career regular season record of 195-239 (44.9%) and he is 2-3 (40%) in the post season. The Western Conference in the NBA is tough but the Suns will expect Gentry to get them back to the playoffs this year.
