I agree he's more than earned an opportunity to be a head coach, but I question how much of an impact he'll have on this roster compared to what George Karl was able to do. With Shaw having an overwhelming majority of his coaching experience coming from Phil's triangle offense, it'll be interesting to see if he sticks with the triangle or implements a variety of concepts and schemes. This is a group of guys that loves to run -- I still think they'll take a small step back this season, especially withe Gallo on the mend for a while.
