He last played in Italy 20 years ago
Sadly, that may not be a factor.

7th Highest Scorer in NBA History And...
He averaged 21.5 points and 5.5 rebounds per game during his NBA career and was the NBA’s most prolific scorer during the 1980s. He was named to eight NBA All-Star teams, his #2 jersey was retired by the Nuggets, and he was elected to the Basketball Hall of Fame in 1997.
From June 2004 to July 2011, English was the director of player development and an assistant coach for the Toronto Raptors. He joined the Raptors after spending the previous two season as an assistant coach with the Philadelphia 76ers and Atlanta Hawks. On June 5, 2009, it was announced that English would stay with the Raptors as an assistant coach. On July 13, 2011, with the team heading in a new direction, English was not given a new contract, and his services were not retained.

Putting a face to the name
Asked if the Kings had any intention of trading Cousins, basketball president Geoff Petrie said, "No."
He's also a hall of famer
A top 50 NBA selection, has 25,600 pts 6.00 steals and career avgs of 21/6/3. He’s basically the proto Tyreke Evans.

That should say
6,000 rebounds not 6 steals.

with English in the fold along with Fat lever, it seems like we are building a bridge to the 1980’s nuggets. I was a fan of his as a player, so lets hope he brings it as a coach. a prolific wing scorer, i’m sure he can impart some tips to our young guns.
Alex English is the man...He'll be liked by Kings' fans.

I hope this doesn't mean no more Jim Eyen. I like having a mobster looking assistant coach.

No, Alex English is filling the coaching spot that opened up when Smart took over.
"First we get jobs, then we get the khakis, then we get the chicks."
Funny how things change, I assumed from the cover it was a dark story of some kid coming out
But then I went to IMDB and this was the description:
Chuck Murdock is an all American kid living in a sleepy town in Montana. He is the top pitcher of the little league team as well. After taking a tour of a nuclear silo, Chuck decides to quit playing little league until nuclear weapons are disarmed. Boston Celtic Amazing Grace Smith hears about Chuck’s exploits, and decides to do the same thing. Amazing then moves to the young boy’s town to live. More athletes follow suit as well. The town begins to hate Chuck and his family, and this makes Chuck’s father angry. But can one kid’s message make the world listen?
Would they even make a movie like this anymore? Sounds insanely corny. Vintage 80s.
