Next: Who is Jay Triano?

Fleming seems the most likely to be the next great X’s and O’s assistant who makes it as a head coach. You think about the Mike Malone’s, Dave Joeger’s, Kenny Attikenson’s, and Qyinn Synder-types and that’s what you get in Fleming. He would make the Suns fans say, “who dat?” but after the shock wore off, he would be a winning coach in Phoenix.
