Sports Sources: Hawks consider historic hire of European coach Ettore Messina Fri, May 17, 2013 12:18 AM EDT CHICAGO – Atlanta Hawks general manager Danny Ferry is giving significant consideration to hiring the first European- born head coach in NBA history, sources told Yahoo! Sports. Ettore Messina, the Italian-born coach of CSKA Moscow, is among the top candidates to replace coach Larry Drew. Ferry and Messina have had contact about the possibility, and Messina is intrigued with the chance to be a global trail blazer in the NBA, sources told Y! Sports. Ferry recently scouted CSKA Moscow in London at the Euroleague Final Four. Atlanta's top target, Stan Van Gundy, is a long shot to accept the job, league sources said. Messina, 53, is a four-time Euroleague championship coach and two-time Euroleague coach of the year. Across two decades of head coaching jobs in Italy and Russia, Messina has won five Russian League championships and four Italian League titles. Messina spent the 2011-'12 season as a part of Mike Brown's coaching staff with the Los Angeles Lakers. With uncertainty over Brown's future, Messina left the NBA to take a $1 million-plus a year job with CSKA Moscow. Messina brought Lakers assistant Quin Snyder to CSKA with him as an assistant coach. Ettore Messina (Getty Ferry and Snyder have a long, close relationship, dating back to their days as Duke University Images) teammates. Snyder is a candidate for the Phoenix Suns and Charlotte Bobcats coaching jobs. Ferry is considered one of the few NBA executives with the fearlessness to make the historic move. To introduce a European coach into the leadership of an NBA locker room needs a strong, sure executive, and Ferry possesses the independence of mind to make the move. Hired with a six-year, $12 million-plus contract a year ago, Ferry has the freedom to reshape the Hawks franchise. Ferry has a strong respect for the European game, and as Cleveland's GM, sent his coach Mike Brown overseas to spend time studying Messina's offense. Ferry also sent Drew to Israeli a year ago to observe Maccabi Tel Aviv's David Blatt. Messina is a superior coaching mind with a long résumé of success at the highest levels of European basketball. Messina speaks excellent English and has long been considered – along with Blatt – one of the most likely Euroleague candidates to be hired as a head coach in the NBA. Ferry interviewed ex-Blazers coach Nate McMillan on Wednesday for the Hawks' coaching job. Drew is still under contract with the team until June 30, and hasn't been completely ruled out to return as coach. Nevertheless, Drew has almost assuredly coached his final game for Atlanta. Oklahoma City general manager Sam Presti hired Serbian Darko Rajakovic to coach the Thunder's NBA Development League affiliate, the Tulsa 66ers, for the 2012-'13 season. Rajakovic was the first non-North American coach in D-League history. Lakers coach Mike D'Antoni, who was born and raised in West Virginia, jumped into the NBA after a successful eight-year stint in the Italian League. NBA video from Yahoo!

  • By Joe Kaiser ESPN It Took Danny Ferry Exactly Seven Days in His
    By Joe Kaiser ESPN Smith had a great 2011 -12, but he is an unrestricted free agent after this season. It took Danny Ferry exactly seven days in his new role as the Atlanta Hawks' president of basketball operations and general manager to completely change the face of the franchise. His ability to swiftly orchestrate separate deals to part with high-priced veterans Joe Johnson and Marvin Williams signaled a commitment to rebuilding and shed as much as $77 million still owed to the two veterans beyond next season. Fast-forward two-and-a-half months to today, and Ferry's rebuilt roster has only a handful of contracts that go beyond the 2012-13 season: • Al Horford : Signed through 2015-16. • Lou Williams : Signed through 2013-14. • John Jenkins : 2012 first-round pick. • Mike Scott : 2012 second-round pick. • Jeff Teague : Due to become a restricted free agent at season's end, barring an extension. Notice one big name we didn't mention: Josh Smith . The tantalizingly talented, yet often frustrating, forward is among the many Hawks entering the final year of their deals, and he represents arguably the biggest challenge for Ferry to date: what to do with Smith. If handled correctly, this could be the next step toward eventually turning the Hawks into a perennial playoff contender. Mishandled, and this could undo everything good that came out of the trades of Johnson and Williams. So the question is, what's the smarter move for Ferry and the Hawks? a) Negotiate an extension that will keep Smith in Atlanta for the long term.

So are the movers ready to lift Josh Smith like an old sofa and carry him to the door next? Not so fast, Ferry tells Jeff Schultz of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution : “He’s a really good player,” Ferry said. “I love his ability to pass the ball. I love his ability to make game-changing plays defensively. I love his competitiveness. If I was out there playing, I would want Josh on my team.” But does Smith want to be here? He wasn’t available for comment Tuesday, but Ferry said he has met with him twice. “He’s excited for next season,” he said. “We haven’t really gone in that direction with him [on roster plans]. But we’ve talked about how we’re going to play. We’ve talked about other players. His ideas, my ideas. I’m just trying to establish a relationship.” Smith has only one year left on his contract. While he reportedly has softened his stance on a trade request, he publicly has given no indication yet that he’s looking to re-sign here. He is coming off the best season of his career (18.8 points, 9.6 rebounds), taking on more responsibility after Al Horford’s injury, even with the occasional “Josh” moment.
