Why do you think they would hire someone simply because they are cheap?
I doubt Ernie was cheap and they won't want to throw away the investment that they've made in this squad and the rest of the Phoenix franchise by hiring someone cheap.
I think the main factor is going to be timing not price.
Why do you think they would hire someone cheap? I doubt Ernie was cheap and they won't want to throw away the investment that they've made in this squad and the rest of the Phoenix franchise (because if the new coach doesn't perform then the chances of building momentum to achieve the metrics required within the time frame required gets harder) by hiring someone cheap. They may hire him because he is the best available in the timeline provided, but that's it.
