Wait... I can fire my Boss?!

WeHam needs to go to Devos and get Martins canned. IT MUST BE DONE.

I hate Alex as much as anyone here, but you gotta give him some credit. To see the arena filled with fans, late in the season vs other tanking teams, is a sign the marketing/business side of things is good. I hate his ass for stepping onto the bball side, but he's doing his thing over there.

I feel so dirty right now.

someone correct me if I'm wrong in my assessment.

That's really the issue. He's been great for business, but he's been too involved in the basketball decision-making. And a lot of that is also on ownership since he is an extension of them. I think this new dynamic that Weltman and Hammond have is a better look. I think Martins is aware of the perception of him and I think he's taking a step back and solely focusing on business, which is great.

You bet your ass he is aware of the perception of him, when John Morgan tweets a burning dumpster and calls for his firing saying he is the common denominator I'm pretty sure he knows public opinion of him is just a notch above Jared Fogle.

I remember seeing that tweet. At first, i thought it was a joke account then realized it was really John Morgan. I laughed so damn hard!

Can we be optimistic about Isaac staying healthy next year? He was injured almost the whole year. I think one of the main reasons and possibly the biggest reason the entire athletic and strength training staff got fired (WAS THE INJURY TO ISAAC)/ How many games Isaac was out.

I'd be more worried if he had a major injury. It was just a lot of little injuries that added up because our staff didn't handle it correctly.

He does need to learn how to land better after dunks. He lets go too quick and he lands awkwardly a lot.

The only way I'd be optimistic about anything health-related to Isaac is if we hire a disciple from that amazing Suns training staff.
