Gotta do everything possible to keep KD happy and the Suns haven't had too functional of an offense...

Phoenix hired Vogel to a 5 year deal worth 31 mill.....he got all that for 1 season.

LOL.

After the way they did him....I'd be surprised if he'd be interested.

If he is, then yeah...hire him.

As far as him getting fired, it's a weird situation. They kind of didn't have a choice. But it was their own mistake, bringing in Westbrook over his objections, that created the situation.

The Lakers were wrong to bring in Westbrook, but Vogel was wrong for all but refusing to try to find a way to make him useful.

I kind of agree,

He is still young.....just 50. Wonder if he may want to go the college route and teach kids. I consider him a pretty good coach (not great) and he could carve a niche coaching kids.

Dude has been fired by FOUR teams... No one should hire him for anything more than an assistant.

Other young teams in the West like Dallas, OKC, Minnesota, Denver and Sacramento be sayin', "building a roster matters more than your coaching carousels".

Drafting, developing and building a team is the new way. Megastar teams on their way out.

It was never a thing besides it being a way to hype lebron more as he made political statements to help the democrats.

The warriors were built through the draft. They added an extra star to an already built team.

Once others tried to duplicate those years the league shut it down because all they do is manipulate. They can't set the league in motion and let it play out. They have to micro tinker until they get the control they want.

Blame the Westbrook trade. He was held accountable for not handling Russ well. They then bring in Ham to work with Russ, then trade Russ midseason. Now the Ham hire no longer fits one of the reasons they hired him.

Meanwhile, Pelinka is not on the chopping block somehow. It pays to have strong ties to ownership lol.

I would fire him and go after Myers at ESPN.

Maybe he will go back to impractical jokers. That show really fell off when Frank left them for the lakers.
