Well, first of all you'd be quitting on this season. You can't change your offensive approach more than halfway through the season and expect to be competitive.

Also, in my opinion they don't have a coach with the ability to coach that kind of offense.

Also, a team with Shaq (in his current form), Amare, and Nash on the floor at the same time is a horrendous defensive team.
