  Throughout his storied career, Jerry Colangelo has been known for his unique combination of know-how both on the basketball court and on the business side of the operation. That savvy and almost 40 years of experience is what makes him one of the top executives in professional sports.
Born on November 20, 1939, in Chicago, Colangelo grew up in the Italian neighborhood. At high school he averaged 15 points per game as a basketball player and was the top pitcher on the school’s baseball team. By the time he graduated, Colangelo had received 66 scholarship offers to play college basketball and seven offers of pro baseball contracts. He opted for basketball and enrolled at the University of Kansas, where he hoped to team up with Wilt Chamberlain. He later transferred to the University of Illinois where he finished his college career.
Colangelo began his sports management career in 1966 as head scout and director of merchandising for the expansion Chicago Bulls. In 1968, at the age of 28, Colangelo became the youngest general manager in professional sports when he accepted the job with the Phoenix Suns, who were preparing for their first NBA season. He won his first Executive of the Year Award in 1976, after the Suns, behind new acquisitions Paul Westphal and Alvan Adams. Made an improbable run to the NBA Finals, but lost the series against the Boston Celtics in six games. The Suns franchise faced a lot of problems and a famous drug scandal during the mid-1980s, but in July 1988 Colangelo erased the front office’s tightwad reputation by signing Tom Chambers (the first unrestricted free agent in NBA history) to a multimillion-dollar contract. The team’s record improved from 28-54 in 1987-88 to 55-27. In June 1992 Colangelo made the deal he had dreamed about for years when he acquired All-Star forward Charles Barkley from the Philadelphia 76ers in exchange for three players. In his first season with the team Barkley won the MVP award and propelled the Suns to a 62-20 season and carried them all the way to the NBA Finals, in which they were stopped in six games by Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls. After having a couple of mediocre season during the late 1990s, the Suns used their draft picks to get great young players, such as Shawn Marion and Amare Stoudemire, and after signing free agent Steve Nash from the Dallas Mavericks in the summer of 2004, they surprised the basketball world with the NBA-best 62-20 record last season.
Colangelo led a group of investors that purchased the Suns Franchise in October 1987 for $44.5 million (the most ever paid for an NBA team at the time). In June 1992 he moved the Suns to the newly-built 18,422-seat America West Arena. Colangelo added to his NBA involvement with a position on the founding committee for the WNBA, helping advance professional women’s basketball in the United States. As with the NBA, Colangelo is involved with the governing of baseball, serving the Legislative Committee, Equal Opportunity Committee and on the board of directors of MLB Advanced Media, the technology arm of the League. The Arizona Diamondbacks began play in 1998, and with the signing of players like Randy “Big Unit” Johnson, Luiz Gonzalez and Curt Schilling, they captured the 2001 World Series in a historic seven-game series against the three-time defending champion New York Yankees.
Last year, Colangelo revealed a plan for the Suns future that included the sale of the team for an NBA record $401 million. Banking and real estate executive Robert Sarver will be the major investor of the new ownership group that will purchase the Suns over the next three years. Colangelo will remain as CEO and Chairman until the sale of the team is complete in June 2007, and then will retain the title of chairman for at least another five years beyond that.		  
     
   
  When Mike D'Antoni joined the Suns coaching staff in June 2002, he brought with him a 30-year professional basketball background that included the NBA, ABA and the Italian League. That experience was in his favor 18 months later when he took the reigns of the Suns as head coach in December 2003. He guided the NBA's youngest roster to a 21-40 mark after inheriting a trade-overhauled and injury-riddled Suns team. Installing an up-tempo style of play, the Suns increased their scoring by more than three points a game under his charge. D'Antoni coached the Suns to a 33-game improvement over last season and he has been named the winner of the Red Auerbach Trophy as the NBA Coach of the Year for the 2004/05 season.
This is the second NBA head-coaching stint for D'Antoni, who served as head coach for the Denver Nuggets in the 1998-99 season and was the club's director of player personnel in 1997-98. He was also on the bench as an assistant for Portland in 2000-01 and was a scout for San Antonio during the 1999-2000 campaign.
An Italian League legend, he coached Benetton from 1994-97 when his team captured the Cup of Europe and Cup of Italy in 1995 and won the league title in 1996-97 after a 22-4 regular season. Prior to that D'Antoni guided Philips Milan for four seasons from 1990-94 and led the club to the 1993 Korac Cup. During his Italian tenure D'Antoni led his teams to the playoffs each season and was twice voted the league's Coach of the Year.		  
     
   
  Ruben Magnano was born in 1954, in Argentina. In just four years he transformed Argentina into powerhouse of international basketball, beating the USA twice, in World Championship 2002 and Olympic Games 2004. Magnano took over national team in 1999 replacing Julio Lamas and in 2000 he won the FIBA South American and Pan-American Championships with youth team. At the helm of Senior National Men’s team, he won the FIBA South American, FIBA tournament of the Americas and a silver medal at the Goodwill Games. In 2002, he won the silver medal at the FIBA World Championship (Indianapolis, USA) and the gold medal at the Olympic Games 2004 in Athens, Greece.
On "BCB 2005" he will talk about "Flex Offense" and "Zone Defense".		  
     
   
  Svetislav Pesic was born in 1949, in Novi Sad, Serbia and Montenegro. He was a basketball player in Pirot, than in Belgrade Partizan and Sarajevo Bosna. Mr. Pesic has already won almost every possible title, a list headed by current world crown (Indianapolis 2002, USA). Before that triumph, Pesic's curriculum bristled with titles: with Yugoslavia (Serbia and Montenegro), national team of Yugoslavia, European championship (2001), the European cadets and junior (1985, 1986) and the world junior (1987); with Bosna Sarajevo, the Yugoslav league (1983) and Cup (1984); with Alba Berlin, the German league four times (1997, 1998, 1999, 2000) and Cup twice (1997, 1999), plus the "Korac" Cup (1995); with German national team, European championship (1993); with Barcelona Spain, he won Euroleague (2003) Spanish national championship and Cup of King (2003).

His teams won more than 80 percent of its games, his players were exemplary student-athletes and the program was first-class in all aspects. Williams secured his 400th win on January 15, 2003, when the Jay hawks defeated Wyoming, 98:70. Williams got to 400 win faster than all but three coaches in history (Adolph Rupp, Clair Bee and Jerry Tarkanian). He spent 10 seasons as an assistant coach under Dean Smith at Carolina. Williams was named head coach at Kansas on July 8, 1988, replacing another former Tar Heel, Larry Brown. He led Kansas to the Final Four in 1991, 1993, 2002 and 2003. Kansas was 34-14 in the NCAA tournament, a winning percentage of 60.8% that is the sixth-best active mark in the country. Williams' teams went 201-17 (92%) in Allen Fieldhouse. Kansas won 62 consecutive home games from February 1994 to December 1998. Much of Williams’ coaching style comes from spending so many years observing and then coaching with Dean Smith. He displayed many of characteristics of Dean Smith's Carolina teams – they fast break to create easy basket, play unselfishly and take good shots… Williams played on Carolina’s freshman team in 1968-69 under coach Bil Guthridge. He is on the board of directors of the National Association of Basketball Coaches, and served as president in 2001-02. At Kansas, Williams earned National Coach of the Year honors in 1990, 1991, 1992 and 1997. In April 2003 he received the John R Wooden Legends of Coaching Award by the Los Angeles Athletic Club. Other recipients of the Wooden Coaching Award are Dean Smith, Mike Krzyzewski, Lute Olson and Denny Crum. Williams is a member of Brown’s 2004 U.S. Olympic team coaching staff.
