Finally the Mike Brown era can begin in Phoenix.
Best coach we've had in probably 20 years and they fire him.

suns franchise is going nowhere with that tightarse owner...
We agree. Glad for Gentry, though. This ship has sunk. No need to hold on to the floating debris any longer.
Just another "new low".
Worst record in the west.
No franchise player.
20 million being spent on Beasley, Childress and Channing Frye.
No coach.
like the coach is the issue
Good. Now fire half of the players.
I'm thrilled with the record. That said, I have no confidence the Suns ups will pick a franchise player with the high lotto pick. I'm convinced they'd have picked Darko #1 over LeBron. Woeful and whole full inep ude.
We should really bring him in for the post-Popovich era..

He's a great coach when ownership isn't sabotaging his chances of winning year after year.
I won't miss hearing that voice though.
Wouldn't mind the Hornets having him as an assistant until he gets another head coaching job which may be years considering the color of his skin.
Surprising, tbh. I thought the Suns were playing about as well as possible.
Gentry should be a hot commodity next offseason. He did great work with the Suns after taking over the Terry Porter trainwreck.

Sarver apparently thinks this team has talent. They have Dragic and Gortat for in-prime, legit NBA talent, then some past prime and over-achieving talent in Scola, Dudley, and Brown. As DSF said, they are paying 20 million to three players who were waived, out with medical condition, or are too stupid to get PT.
After Dragic, I'm not sure there's a single piece worth a damn since Gortat is trade bait.
Dumb move, Gentry was the best thing the Suns had going for them. That team is another story
Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA After firing of Alvin Gentry today, top candidates to become Suns interim coach: assistants Elston Turner and Lindsey Hunter, sources say.

Part of Suns thinking w/ holding back Hunter as interim coach has been hope of giving him clean slate to take over in offseason, sources say

Suns front office installed Hunter into organization and see him as future head coach there. Turner is a favorite of owner, Robert Sarver.
Yeah, the Suns trying to scapegoat Gentry is as desperate as it gets, especially since no one buys it.
Elston Turner is gonna for sure be the replacement. Babby hired him as the Suns' "defensive coordinator" () and he'll promote him so he can a "tough, defensive minded coach" for PR purposes.
I guess that 'come have fun or we'll refund your money' isn't that much fun
well he did let the suns do something they hadn't done in 20 years
Still better than the Celtics.
