When the coach's system advocates players taking shots as quick as possible (or I guess my system as you put it), are you saying the coach has nothing to do with it?
My offensive philosophy? I created Seven Seconds or Less? God damn you're re ed.

Your playoff rotation

I'm hoping Gentry wins it, COY has been a kiss of death in recent years for coaches.
Seriously, you need a new team... I can see 3 years from now "Trade Dragic, Dudley gets too many minutes!"
Yeah like Dragic is gonna be here in 3 years, once his contract is up he's bolting for a team that isn't run in the backwards way Phoenix is, like giving the 35 year old wash up an extension and letting the 27 year old's contract expire so he can bolt for a team that's willing to pay him. Yup, I should be really happy with that!

obama! Al-qaida !
High praise for Dragič: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUxmXct1GnQ
how is firing gentry going to change the Phoenix Suns?? hahahaha how stupid. they are actually doing as good as that team possibly can with him as coach
You create a thread about your coach and team and then start arguing semantics whenever I say "your"More than just a little pathetic for more than a couple reasons
About Gentry, 7 seconds or less doesn't mean "take any shot you can, even if its terrible, in 7 seconds or less," moron.
It means run hard for a decent or better shot in 7 seconds or less. 14000 posts on a basketball forum and you don't even know about your own team.
the best thing that will ever happen to the Suns is when Nash retires.
What does the word "your" mean you dumb boy band ? You talk about SSOL like it's a system I like. Naturally, I hate that system, which is why I want Gentry gone.
And SSOL pretty much makes it OK for players to take whatever shot they want, at least that's how it ended up. I know z0sa is intentionally being an idiot but we all know that the Suns' shot selection would be better if Greg Popovich was the coach instead of Alvan Gentry.
Outside of that hideous stretch they had mid season, the Suns have had a pretty good season overall. Dragic developing, Lopez's amazing turnaround, Amare getting his ass in gear, Nash continueing to contribute. Gentry getting them through that rough stretch is probably enough alone to put him in COY contention. My only complaint will be if they can't get home court in the first round which will be a no if it comes down to a road game in Utah.
I agree there, maybe I'm being overcritical of gentry, but it just seems like he's ignoring the blatantly obvious fact Barbosa shouldn't play at all and Clark should get some PT against a team like OKC where his length and athleticism could be used.
If there's one area we agree, it's Barbac...sa. He's too expensive for what little he contributes. Trade him for any expiring contract, let him walk, trade him to a conference rival, whatever..
What about Clark? Clark might be the one player on the Suns other than Dragic that I'm more optimistic about than most Suns fans.
I don't think yall gave Terry Porter enough of a chance... But than MVPx2 Nash didn't want his demanding defense-minded ass around, so, whatever. you Amare, and you too Steve...
The Suns won but Gentry miss managed the game leaving Frye in there way too long. And the Barbosa broken record again: Barbosa shouldn't sniff the court.
Amen.....as long as they finally get it thru their thick skulls that
a) building around PG's isn't the answer
b) using a philosophy that favors the offense over the defense isn't the answer
c) players that can't score but can defend & rebound have value
Great job by Gentry having them ready tonight. Can't believe I ever wanted him fired.
If this is how Gentry is going to coach in this postseason, I might come around to your way of thinking, DOK.
I'm not ready for that yet, though.
Just out of curiosity how many post season face rapings will have to happen to Gentry before you want him gone? Mike D'antoni was allowed to get mind ed by Popovich 3 different times in 4 years before being told to change, should we throw another 4 years away in hopes that maybe Gentry's little brain might realize accountability is needed?
