Another important game tonight. Much better that we lose this game as it is against the lakers but I would be lying if I said I wouldn't enjoy sending Kobe out of Phoenix one last time with a loss. I'll be watching.
I hate all this bullshit with "honoring legends." Is Kobe one of the all time greats? Undoubtedly. Did I hate him and hate playing against him? Undoubtedly. He was a rival player on a rival team that killed us countless games and helped knock us out of the playoffs a couple of times. Give him a little clap or congrats for a great career at the end of the game, but this doing special introductions or pre game honor bullshit is a joke.

The firing of Hornecek had to happen. There were so many stupid fans out there that took the time to display their opinion after every loss. Our real problem is McDonough. Dude is a class A dumbass. Whenever I see his face trying to defend any decision he makes I want to turn it(his face) into paint ball practice. I hope we reach out to Luke Walton but I'm not expecting anything promising at this point. I would even like Dantoni.The Suns really need to question the wisdom of whatever they did to lose their top-three position heading into the lottery; one might start with the belated firing of Hornacek. And if Phoenix fails to retain Earl Watson as head coach, firing Hornacek during the middle of the season will appear especially pointless.

Whom are you talking about?? There is zero way that KD was meeting with the Suns if he didn't meet with the Wizards. I am happy they didn't blow their load on decent but not great players. Save the cap space for next year.NBA free agency has begun and the Suns have put forth pretty much zero effort in landing one of the great players available on the market. That's okay...who wouldn't want to stick with the status quo when you finished the 4th worst team in the NBA?
Garbage GM. Garbage organization.

Signing Dudley means Teletovic is gone, who I really liked, but this next season is one where it shouldnt matter if we suck. Any free agent we could have have signed this offseason would have turned us into an average team at best which is the long term death sentence in today's NBA. We need to suck this season and get hopefully another high end lottery pick in what will probably be a much deeper draft that's the one that just happened.Not necessarily KD...but anyone that would improve the team. Jared Dudley for $30 million? That's a joke and reeks of nothing more than nostalgia.
It's clear there will be no reason to watch the Suns next year.

Welcome back The Brazilian Blur! Barbosa signs a two year contract to come back to Phoenix. He looked really good on the Warriors.
Probably Goodwin. He hasn't really developed like most thought he would. replacing Knight with Barbosa is so lopsided it's not even funny.The contract is cheap and Barbosa is the kind of player who can be easily assimilated, but his addition means that some guard has to go ... either Goodwin or Knight. There is not enough playing time for six guards; without three-guard lineups, there is barely enough time for four guards.
Horford was pretty much the only other potential all-star. I'm not sure who you thought they missed out on. Mozgov? Harrison Barnes? eff that.Not necessarily KD...but anyone that would improve the team. Jared Dudley for $30 million? That's a joke and reeks of nothing more than nostalgia.

And I don't know if I'm alone on this but I'd rather keep Knight than Bledsoe.
