Re: The Mad Maestro Viewing His Work
Kerr hasn't even begun to shape the team into whatever his vision is. He has however tried to patch some of the holes in the Suns systems, and I think he may be smart enough to realize they were just that patches on a broken system. Give him a year or two with a system he puts in place with a coach he picks to decide whether he deserves the hate.
I mean the guy may turn out to be a pretty good GM, if he can learn from his mistakes. I agree giving up on Kurt Thomas was seriously dumb, and doing it while giving up draft picks was doubly so, but the Shaq trade wasn't horrible. The team seemed to come together towards the end of the year. They just ran into Us, and with the way the Spurs are playing would have been a loss for any team in the L.

Before Shaq, the Suns were competing for the number 1 seed in the West.

Yeah, and then he took a giant dump on our franchise in his dual-hatted role as commentator and part owner of the Suns. I'm glad Pop called him out.

Yeah I forgot about how bad he was for the Suns games he called during his time at the mic as an owner...He quickly lost the respect I had for him.
I would like to think it was a mistake and he can earn it back. Maybe I shouldn't be so forgiving...The Sweep is all but inevitable though, and beating his ass makes me more forgiving.
