Another Coach Swatted: Denver Nuggets Fire Coach Brian Shaw

The Denver Nuggets have fired coach Brian Shaw after 1½ seasons.

Senh: The triangle offense takes another hit. Derek Fisher couldn't get it to work for the New York Knicks. Brian Shaw, with a season and a half under his belt, fared just as poorly. One could make the case that New York didn't have the talent, outside of Carmelo Anthony, to make it work, but Shaw did. The Nuggets, under former coach George Karl, won 57 games before Shaw took over. The players were the same before the recent trades. So far, it seems, only Phil Jackson can make the triangle offense work.

Hawks dismiss coach Mike Woodson after 6 seasons

The Atlanta Hawks have let coach Mike Woodson go after leading the team to their third straight playoffs.

Senh: That didn't take long. He's just the scapegoat. He did the best he could with the talent he had. They got swept by Orlando, reigning Eastern Conference Champions and just a better team. The coaching isn't the issue here. It's the talent. The Atlanta Hawks just didn't have enough talent to beat Orlando. They need a good post player/defender. Well, pretty much every team needs one of those.
