According to Marc Stein, the Dallas Mavericks are hiring the former head coach of the Phoenix Suns, Los Angeles Lakers, Indiana Pacers, and Orlando Magic as a coaching consultant.

When coaching Los Angeles, Frank Vogel had Jason Kidd on his coaching staff in 2020 when the Lakers won the championship. The roles are reversed now, and the Mavericks hope to win the Finals soon.

Kidd is very happy that Vogel decided to join the Mavericks. He said it took some convincing after Phoenix fired him.

“It took a lot of begging, but he was talked into it, and I’m happy he said yes,” said Kidd.

Frank Vogel Says Suns Are Beyond ‘Frustrated’

This season has not gone as many thought it would, with many constant mistakes and injuries getting in the way for the Phoenix Suns. Fans have been feeling this and feeling angry, but they aren’t the only ones.

According to Phoenix’s head coach, Frank Vogel, players are at an all-time high of feeling frustrated with the way things have gone. Their most recent performance against the Los Angeles Clippers has worsened their mood and their perception of how things are going.

“It’s high. But we’re manning together, and we’re connected, and confident,” Vogel said.

Devin Booker chimed in and said the Suns weren’t prepared at all and weren’t ready to play against the Clippers.

“[They] just came in there ready to play, and we weren’t,” Booker said.
