Stupid.
I don't even think Gentry is a great coach (they should have hired Thibodeau at least in 2009, instead of hiring Gentry on permanently). But didn't they say they wanted Gentry to be their coach as they go through this rebuilding process? I don't think Sarver even knows the meaning of "rebuild"! He thinks that having the worst record in the West is a bad thing??? I'm convinced Sarver would rather have 41-win 10-seed seasons every year.
I actually kinda feel sorry for Suns fans now. Unless they hit lottery gold, it's going to be a LONG time before they are a legit team again. Sarver is a bad combination of cheap, meddlesome and clueless. Babby/Blanks is probably the least knowledgeable GM duo in recent years. It's gon' be ugly for a while.
Most Suns fans got what they deserved. I don't have an ounce of sympathy for the jeebo s who supported stuff like signing Josh Childress and Warrick, trading for Turkoglu, and hiring an agent as the VP of basketball ops.
The common denominator between all of Phoenix's ty teams is a fan base and local journalists obsessed with sentimental bull .
"I couldn't handle seeing Nash on another team!"
"Becoming a defense first team would be admitting those east coast lib s at ESPN were right about D'antoni's system!"
"Max Hall's daddeh went to ASU so that means he deserves a starting QB job for the Cardinals!"
"I know Leandro Barbosa is playing terrible, but his mommeh is dying!"
"There's no way they couldn't let Channing Frye leave even if it meant overpaying him, he's a local kid!"
"I like the Kendall Marshall pick even though he can't shoot or jump because he's a true class act!"
The biggest reason Phoenix teams suck is because of the fans and local media. It's laughably easy for owners like Sarver and Bidwill to find some sentimental story for Phoenix fans to jerk off to while the team sucks (i.e. the semen cloud over Phoenix after Max Hall was named the starting QB in 2010).
Fortunately I'm done in this state in a few months and can laugh at Arizona tea baggers from a distance.
It all starts at the top. Sarver needs to sell the team to a decent owner in order for me to feel good about their future. Tbh, though, it was more frustrating when they were good, knowing that they weren't going to win a championship.
Sarver giving Jerry Jones a run for 'most clueless owner in sports' le.
Actually, I think Frank will be fired and Gentry will take over.
Well, that makes Sarver even worse than Sterling at this point, and even if Dolan is a classic Upper Class Twit at least he's willing to spend.
bro.... im here to get away from my beleagured cowboys. dont bring up That traveshamockery in dallas.
Except Dolan is one of the dumbest spenders around, tbh.... owners shouldn't get credit for "being willing to spend" when they're overpaying people left and right....
^ Yep.
more turnover from this:

Suns GM Lance Blanks and center Jermaine O'Neal engaged in a loud, expletive-laced confrontation on Monday, league sources tell Y! Sports.
Paul Coro @paulcoro
Lead assistant Elston Turner didn't attend a 3rd consecutive #Suns practice. He was to meet w/Blanks today. Majerle already has parted ways.
Wondering if the Lakers would take a look at Gentry to replace Mike D...
Doubt they'll fire ANOTHER coach, they're in full on "Pau and Dwight are the scapegoats" mode tbh...
Why didn't the Suns give Thunder Dan a chance as the head coach? Picking Hunter over Thunder Dan is in' ridiculous and a joke. What the is the front office thinking?
