BREAKING NEWS ESPN!

It was mutual

MDA's fault. And Gallo's

Garbage team, I'd leave as well.
DurzoBlint @ 1/18/2013 2:50 PM
that team is right where is should be. They aren't good enough to make any real noise in the West

It's not a world beater but it's a solid lineup and they can bang wit you, you're talking Scola and Gortat, Dragic can dish it then you have Dudley Brown and SUPERBEAS,

no reason they shouldn't be right around the Nuggets this year, my prediction: Suns make a run and finish close to .500, maybe 39-43

You know what, you're probably not that far off when you say it's MDA's fault,

because it's his big shadow that floated above Gentry and every Suns team since MDA left,

now they can start fresh, free from the big shadows,

and we can wonder if MDA was a one hit wonder

That team is horrible and I don't blame Gentry for it. Beasley has been a bust and they've had to rely on guys like Shannon Brown and PJ Tucker for extended minutes.

Nash gone and it goes south. Give Nash his due. Lose a HOF point and as good as Dragic is, he is not Nash.

Beas was a bust before he got there. Scola is on the decline. Gortat is a glue guy.

Keep Dragič, possibly Gortat if you can.
rebuild around them.
I like Gentry but I was frustrated with his rotations this year.
not only that, but in general it seems like the suns are reluctant to let the point guard dictate the play.

Horrible roster- and to think they once had Amar'e in his prime, Nash, Joe Johnson, etc plus a top pick from Chicago- all assets squandered due to a tight fisted owner.
IronWillGiroud @ 1/19/2013 2:45 PM
IT'S NOT THE ROSTER

IT'S THE COACH

GENTRY IS A GUY THAT BENCHED SCOLA WHEN SCOLA WAS AVERAGING 20/10 OVER HIS LAST 5 OR SO GAMES, THE NEXT GAME SCOLA GOT LIKE 10 MINUTES,

GENTRY IS AN IDIOT, GOOD RIDDANCE,

I STAND BY MY PREDICTION: SUNS FINISH 39-43

Listened to Barkley whine about how much the Suns suhuck. First time I ever really heard him talk about how he pulls for both the Suns and the Sixers. Sorry, don't want to make this another Barkley thread.

Phoenix really sucks. Will be mildly interested to see what Lindsey Hunter's going to do.
