Breaking: The @SydneyKings have acquired the services of three-time championship winning @NBL coach Phil Smyth as a coaching consultant. Phil also won three titles as a player and was Defensive Player of the year four times. He also spent a season with the Kings in 95. pic.twitter.com/jn5fG5wsrH

Ahahaha ... great question, #554
Credit to the Kings for making the move though.
He has been attending numerous weddings wearing a Billabong T-shirt.
Academy in Vic, Adelaide, NT I reckon but information on those is scant.

Joe Connelly joined the Kings as a specialist coach....weeks later Damian Cotter was shown the door.
Lanard Copeland better start making friends with Smyth.
Wonder if Breheny is going there as well, the real brains behind the sixers success!!
Jvg playing games again, should've got the team balance and selection right at start and most of these problems wouldn't have happened. Lucky Kings owners got plenty cash to throw around.
The financial controller was also a part of that success ;)

Apparently Smyth is only spending a week with the Kings, so not sure it's going to achieve much.
Smyth only for a week , lol, at least that's more than Bradkte, he never showed up, was to busy and it was announced before they got his reply.
I spoke to him a week ago and there no knee reco,, seemed to be fine.
Best advice he could tell Gaze is find a really good assistant and let him coach the team and just be a figurehead. But waste of time at this stage if season, even Gaze said in press conference that his future is out of his hands, just he wouldn't be quitting.
20th century thinking. Perfect.
Lurching from one stupid decision to another.

Gaze paid to much to quit!
Not sure how Symth helps as Bradkte didn't help and Copes doesn't appear to be helping much other than with the high fives!
If you where a kings owner you start to question why we are writing Super cheque for all of Gaze's mates who add little to no value?
NOthing on FB from Bradtke about a knee reco that I can see.
